Carnitine Short-chain Acyltransferase in Pea Mitochondria
Authors
Affiliations
Carnitine acetyltransferase was shown to be present in pea-cotyledon mitochondria. Acetyl-carnitine may well be exported, without excessive energy loss, from mitochondrial matrix sites to extra-mitochondrial sites.
Acylcarnitines participate in developmental processes associated to lipid metabolism in plants.
