1. Mitochondria from Candida utilis CBS 1516 and Sacchromyces cerevisiae JB 65 possess an ATPase-inhibitor activity. The inhibitor activity depends on the growth conditions of the yeast cells. It is markedly decreased when the cells are grown in the presence of a high concentration of glucose, which suggests that glucose represses the synthesis of the ATPase inhibitor or of a protein required for the insertion of the inhibitor into the inner mitochondrial membrane. 2. The ATPase inhibitor has been isolated from D. utilis mitochondria and purified to homogeneity. The minimal molecular weight calculated from amino acid composition is close to 7500. Dtermination of the molecular weight by sokium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gives a value close to 6000. 3. The ATPas inhibitor of C. utilis mitochondria differs from the beef heart ATPase inhibitor by a number of properties. It has a lower molecular weight (6000-7500 vs 10500), a different amino acid composition, and a more acidic isoelectric point 5, 6 vs 7, 6). In spite of these differences, the C. utilis inhibitor cross-reacts with the ATPase of beef heart submitochondrial inhibitor-depleted particles. 4. The interaction of the C. utilis inhibitor with the ATPase of inhibitor-depleted particles requires the addition of Mg-2+-ATP or ATP in the incubation medium. 5. 14-C labelling of the C.utilis inhibitor has been achieved by growing C. utilis in a medium supplemented with [14-C]leucine. It has been found by titration experiments that the C. utilis 14-C-labelled inhibitor binds to the homologous submitochondrial inhibitor-depleted particles with a KD of about 10- minus 7 M. The number of binding sites is of the order of 0.1 nmol/mg protein.
