A concerted function of purine nucleotide (PN) binding and fatty acid (FA) release from the uncoupling protein (UP) resulting in the maximum coupling (potential) of brown adipose tissue (BAT) mitochondria was demonstrated. The uncoupling effect of FA was studied (at 4 mM MgCl2): 17 nmol oleate per mg protein caused a slight uncoupling with 8.9 mM ATP but with ATP below 3.6 mM almost total uncoupling was achieved. This shows that the PN-controlled gate can be stabilized in the closed conformation (with 8.9 mM ATP), also when FA is bound to UP. The sensitivity of the FA effect to ATP proves that oleate directly interacts with UP. The closed conformation of the H+ channel of UP is then abolished by oleate when a lower free ATP concentration is maintained outside.
