Abstract: Intact pigeon heart mitochondria showed 10-30 % ubiquinone reduction in the absence of substrates. This reduction could not be ascribed to endogenous substrates, as judged by lack of effect of inhibitors and uncouplers and by the very low endogenous respiratory rate. Addition of NADH in the presence of antimycin caused further reduction of about 10 % ubiquinone, apparently coupled to the rotenone- and antimycin-sensitive exo-NADH oxidase system [Rasmussen (1969) FEBS Lett. 2, 157-162]. Citric acid cycle substrates reduced most of the remaining ubiquinone in the presence of antimycin; 15-20 % of the total ubiquinone content was still in the oxidized form under the most reducing conditions. Three pools of ubiquinone therefore appeared to be present in heart mitochondria: a metabolically inactive pool consisting of reduced as well as oxidized ubiquinone, a pool coupled to oxidation of added (cytoplasmic) NADH, and the well-known pool coupled to citric acid cycle oxidations. Ferricyanide selectively oxidized the ubiquinol reduced by added NADH, indicating that this pool is situated on the outer surface of the mitochondrial inner membrane. Ubiquinone reduction levels were determined with a new method, which is described in detail.
