Biochemical analysis of
jac1Δ32
cells. Wild-type and
jac1Δ32
cells were grown at 30°C and shifted to the indicated temperatures.
(A) Enzyme activities and iron content of mitochondria
were determined. At least triplicate samples were analyzed for at least
three independent mitochondrial preparations Wild-type enzyme activity
was set at 100% and iron levels at 1. Bars indicate. the average
values, and standard deviations are indicated. (B)
Low-temperature absorption spectra of wild-type and
jac1Δ32
were measured. The absorption maxima for cytochromes are as follows: c,
547 nm; c1, 553 nm; b, 558 nm; a and a3, 600 nm.
