Estimation with an ion-selective electrode of the membrane potential in cells of Paracoccus denitrificans from the uptake of the butyltriphenylphosphonium cation during aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Biochem. J. 196(1) , 311-21, (1981)

1. Aerobic respiration by cells of Paracoccus dentrificans drives the uptake of the lipophilic cation butyltriphenylphosphonium. Anaerobiosis or addition of an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation (carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone) results...

The measurement of membrane potential during photosynthesis and during respiration in intact cells of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata by both electrochromism and by permeant ion redistribution.

Biochem. J. 200(2) , 389-97, (1981)

1. The membrane potential in intact cells of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata during photosynthesis and during dark respiration has been measured by two independent methods. 2. The light-induced and O2-induced shifts in the carotenoid absorption spectrum were measu...

Tandem mass spectrometric characterization of thiol peptides modified by the chemoselective cationic sulfhydryl reagent (4-iodobutyl)triphenylphosphonium--effects of a cationic thiol derivatization on peptide fragmentation.

J. Am. Soc. Mass Spectrom. 22(10) , 1771-83, (2011)

Fixed charge chemical modifications on peptides and proteins can impact fragmentation behaviors in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). In this study, we employed a thiol-specific cationic alkylation reagent, (4-iodobutyl)triphenylphosphonium (IBTP), to selectiv...

Comparison of polyvinyl chloride membrane electrodes sensitive to alkylphosphonium ions for the determination of the electrical difference (delta psi) of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus casei.

Anal. Biochem. 139(1) , 228-36, (1984)

Polyvinyl chloride membrane electrodes sensitive to tetraphenyl phosphonium (TPP+), butyltriphenyl phosphonium ( bTPP +), and methyltriphenyl phosphonium ( mTPP +) ions have been compared for the determination of the electrical potential difference (delta psi...

Membrane potentials in reconstituted cytochrome c oxidase proteoliposomes determined by butyltriphenyl phosphonium cation distribution.

Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 245(2) , 436-45, (1986)

Equilibration of the butyltriphenyl phosphonium (BTPP+) cation into cytochrome c oxidase reconstituted proteoliposomes was measured potentiometrically. The maximum membrane potential (delta psi) generated by oxidase activity was estimated to lie between -65 a...
