Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation produces most of the energy in aerobic cells by coupling respiration to the production of ATP. Mitochondrial uncouplers, which reduce the proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane, create a futile cycle of nutrient oxidation without generating
We have used a specific immunoassay for uncoupling protein and [3H]GDP binding to study the acute and chronic responses of brown-adipose-tissue (BAT) mitochondria of warm-acclimated rats to housing at 4 degrees C and cold-acclimated rats to housing at 27 degrees C. These studies have shown the
