The simultaneous inhibition of respiration and oxidation of cyto- chrome a in the presence of succinate on addition of ATP. Amperometric record- ing of oxygen consumption and simultaneous spectrophotometric recording at the a-band of cytochrome a. The interaction of ATP with the respiratory chain causes a "crossover point" of the redox changes of the respiratory components between cyto- chrome h and cytochrome c. The "crossover point" can be interpreted to indicate the reaction step at which the electron transfer is inhibited by ATP. Thus, it is to be expected that in the overall electron transport also, in the oxygen uptake, an inhibitory effect of ATP can be observed. As shown in the upper recordings of Figs. 7 and 8, after addition of ATP, the respiration of skeletal-muscle mitochondria, both with glvcerolphosphate and succinate, is inhibited to about 50^'o- After further addition of phos- phate or dinitrophenol, respiration is again accelerated synchronously with.
