Inhibition of erythrocyte sickling by cystamine, a thiol reagent.

abstract：:Earlier work has shown that mitochondrial proteins synthesized in the cytosol are initially made as larger precursors which are then transferred into the organelles and processed to their mature size in the absence of protein synthesis. It is now demonstrated that depletion of the mitochondrial matrix ATP in intact ye...
