Abstract

Corn shoot mitochondria possess an energy-linked transport system for sulfate uptake as demonstrated by osmotic swelling and [(35)S]SO(4) (2-) accumulation. Maximum uptake is secured in the presence of Mg(2+) and oligomycin with sucrose for osmotic support. Neither phosphate nor dicarboxylate anions are required. When added simultaneously, millimolar concentrations of phosphate block [(35)S]SO(4) (2-) uptake after the initial minute. Mersalyl, N-ethylmaleimide, and 2,4-dinitrophenol are strong inhibitors of sulfate uptake; n-butylmalonate is a weak inhibitor. These inhibitors act in the same fashion on phosphate uptake. It is concluded that sulfate uptake in the absence of phosphate is by the phosphate transporter.
