title: A 22 kDa polyanion inhibits carnitine-dependent fatty acid oxidation in rat liver mitochondria.
abstract: The transport of activated fatty acids across the mitochondrial outer membrane has not been fully addressed. A polyanion (M(n)=22 kDa) inhibited the ADP-stimulated carnitine-dependent oxidation of both palmitoyl-CoA and palmitate plus CoA as well as mitochondrial hexokinase binding. In contrast, the oxidation of palmitoylcarnitine plus malate, as well as glutamate oxidation, was essentially unaffected. Mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 was not inhibited by the polyanion. The data suggest an additional component in carnitine-dependent mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, possibly porin.
