✦ Synopsis

Carnitine acetyltransferase was shown to be present in pea-cotyledon mitochondria. Acetylcarnitine may well be exported, without excessive energy loss, from mitochondrial matrix sites to extra-mitochondrial sites.

Purified pea cotyledon mitochondria did not oxidise acetyl-CoA in the presence of carnitine. However, acetylcarnitine was oxidised. It was concluded that acetylcarnitine passed through the mitochondrial membrane barrier but acetyl-CoA did not. Only a sensitive radioactive assay detected carnitine ac
