Description
The NS-linked substrate state (Complex I&II-linked substrate state) is induced in mt-preparations by addition of NADH-generating substrates (N-linked) in combination with succinate (S- or CII-linked). This physiological substrate combination is required for partial reconstiturion of TCA cycle function and convergent electron-input into the Q-junction to compensate for metabolite depletion into the incubation medium. An Additive effect of convergent NS-electron flow is observed in most types of mitochondria.
