Respiratory acceptor control ratio

Description

The respiratory control ratio (RCR) is defined as State 3/State 4 (Chance and Williams 1955). Considering an index of uncoupling, RCR should be replaced by the L/E ratio, if P/E<1.0 (Gnaiger 2009). In intact cells, RCR has been used for the ratio State 3u/State 4o, i.e. for the inverse L/E ratio (Huetter et al., 2004).

Abbreviation: RCR

Reference: Chance 1955 JBC-III; MiPNet12.15


MitoPedia methods: Respirometry 


MitoPedia topics: "Respiratory state" is not in the list (Enzyme, Medium, Inhibitor, Substrate and metabolite, Uncoupler, Sample preparation, Permeabilization agent, EAGLE, MitoGlobal Organizations, MitoGlobal Centres, ...) of allowed values for the "MitoPedia topic" property.

Discussion

The RCR is discussed in the context of OXPHOS versus ETS capacity.
