Oxidation of cholesterol-26-C14 by rat liver mitochondria: effect of nicotinic acid*

The effect of nicotinic acid upon the oxidation of the terminal carbon atoms of cholesterol-26-C14 by rat liver mitochondrial preparations has been studied. Addition of nicotinic acid, as the potassium salt, to incubation mixtures containing normal rat liver mitochondria enhances the oxidation of ch...
