ATP5C1 inhibitors act primarily through disruption of ATP synthesis and the electron transport chain, given that ATP5C1 is a part of the F-ATPase complex involved in ATP synthesis. Oligomycin A acts directly on the ATP synthase complex, inhibiting its function and thereby preventing ATP5C1 from contributing to ATP synthesis. Other compounds like 2,4-Dinitrophenol, FCCP, and Valinomycin disrupt the proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane, a critical component for ATP synthesis. These agents uncouple oxidative phosphorylation, leading to decreased ATP production and hence ATP5C1 inhibition.
Other inhibitors affect ATP5C1 indirectly by inhibiting processes that lead to the generation of a proton gradient necessary for ATP synthesis. These include Azide, Rotenone, and Antimycin A, which inhibit different components of the electron transport chain. Iodoacetate, Malonate, and Sodium Arsenite inhibit enzymes involved in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, decreasing the substrates available for the electron transport chain and thus reducing ATP synthesis. Atractyloside inhibits the adenine nucleotide translocase, reducing the availability of ADP, a necessary substrate for ATP synthesis. Tetrachloroauric acid has a more general inhibitory effect by binding to sulfhydryl groups of various enzymes, disrupting ATP production and thereby indirectly inhibiting ATP5C1.
