摘要
The present invention provides a screening method for the identification of compounds which modulate an AMP-sensitive regulatory site on mitochondria comprising the steps of: a) contacting a test compound with mitochondria in the presence of a substrate for respiration in the presence of a buffer system; b) measuring an index of metabolic rate; and c) identifying compounds which modulate metabolic rate. Alternatively or additionally membrane potential can be measured. The invention also comprises a regulatory site for a mitochondrial proton leak which is related to the adenine nucleotide carrier, a binding assay and a functional assay.
