Isolated membrane fractions of Escherichia coli K-12 yielded complex immunoprecipitate patterns when Triton X-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate extracts were examined by crossed immunoelectrophoresis with antienvelope immunoglobulins. Twelve of the 46 antigens in the immunoprecipitate patterns of inner (plasma) membranes were identified by zymograms and/or by the use of specific antisera. The following enzyme activities were detected in immunoprecipitates: 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.43); adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3); glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.4), two separate components; malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37); dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.3.1); succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1); lactate dehydrogeanse (EC 1.1.1.27); reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3); protease (EC 3.4.21.1); and glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5). The corresponding immunoprecipitate pattern for isolated outer membranes consisted of at least 25 discrete antigens and differed strikingly from that obtained with inner membranes. Two major immunogens were identified as lipopolysaccharide and Braun lipoprotein. A protease-active immunoprecipitate was also detected in this fraction, but attempts to identify the Rosenbusch matrix protein in the crossed immunoelectrophoretic profile were unsuccessful.

Antibodies against isolated beef-heart ubiquinol--cytochrome c reductase (complex III) have been characterized. Antibodies to complex III react strongly with isolated beef heart complex III and intact beef heart mitochondria, as shown by immunodiffusion and rocket electrophoresis experiments. The complex III content of intact mitochondria can be quantitated with rocket electrophoresis using isolated complex III as a standard. Antibodies to complex III also react with beef liver mitochondria and with both heart and liver mitochondria from rats. The latter are very weak antigens compared to beef heart material. Antibodies to complex III do not react with respiratory chain complexes I and IV, or F1-ATPase from beef heart mitochondria, but gives a slight, but variable, reaction with complex II and the membrane fraction isolated from complex V (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase). Antigenic sites are located on at least five of the seven peptides of complex III. These peptides are presumably lacking in respiratory chain complexes which do not react with antibodies to complex III, and are assumed to be uniquely located in complex III. Antiserum against complex III inhibitis duroquinol--cytochrome c reductase activity in isolated complex III and in complex III incorporated into phospholipid vesicles. Oxidation of NADH and succinate is not affected in submitochondrial particles treated with 6-times more antibody than required for complete inhibition of enzyme activity in free complex III or in complex III-phospholipid vesicles.

The distribution and activities of several oxidative enzymes in the urinary apparatus of five freshwater fish species (river lamprey, lobe finned eel, Prussian carp, rainbow trout and three-spined stickleback) have been studied. Species were selected from three main taxonomic groups: Cyclostomata, Polypterini, Teleostei. Distinctly positive enzyme reactions were only found in the tubular elements of the kidney and the collecting duct-archinephric duct system, with the exception of the generally weak staining intensities of lactate dehydrogenase. The distal tubule normally showed strong to very strong reactions for most of the enzymes investigated. In the epithelial cells of the collecting tubule-collecting duct system, stronger reactions were observed for most of the mitochondrial-bound enzymes, especially succinate dehydrogenase and NADH-diaphorase. For these enzymes, the cells of the archinephric duct reacted strongly positive in Lampetra, Carassius and Gasterosteus. The enzyme patterns of various types of urinary tubules and ducts are compared with results of several morphological studies. In addition, the histochemical findings are discussed in relation to kidney function in different vertebrate groups.

Cells of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata, strain 37b4, leu-, precultivated anaerobically under low light intensity, were exposed to high light intensity (2000 W.m-2). The cells grew with a mass doubling time of 3 h. The synthesis of bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) began after two doublings of cell mass. Reaction center and light-harvesting BChl I (B-875) were the main constituents of the photosynthetic apparatus incorporated into the membrane. The size of the photosynthetic unit (total BChl/reaction center) decreased and light-harvesting BChl I became the dominating BChl species. Concomitant with the appearance of the different spectral forms of BChl the respective proteins were incorporated into the membrane, i.e. the three reaction center polypeptides, the polypeptide associated with light-harvesting BChl I, the two polypeptides associated with BChl II. A polypeptide of an apparent molecular weight of 45 000 was also incorporated. A lowering of the light intensity to 7 W.m-2 resulted in a lag phase of growth for 6 h. Afterwards, the time for doubling of cell mass was 11 h. The concentration of all three BChl complexes (reaction center, light-harvesting BChl I and II complexes)/cell and per membrane protein increased immediately. Also the size of the photosynthetic unit and the amount of intracytoplasmic membranes/cell increased. The activities of photophosphorylation, succinate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase and NADH oxidation (respiratory chain)/membrane protein are higher in membrane preparations isolated from cells grown at high light intensities than in such preparations from cells grown at low light intensities.

Spectrophotometric and fluorimetric substrate couple titrations and potentiometric spectrophotometric titrations were used to determine the oxidation-reduction potentials of components showing absorbance or fluorescence at the wavelengths attributable to the flavoproteins of mitochondria fractionated using digitonin together with sonication. A pure mitoplast fraction devoid of cytochrome b5 contamination could be obtained using 230 micrograms digitonin/mg of mitochondrial protein. The digitonin-soluble fraction contained a species having Em7.4 = -123 mV and probably represents the outer membrane flavoproteins. The inner membrane-matrix fraction, treated with ultrasound, provided evidence of a flavoprotein species with redox potential (Em7.4 = -302 mV) in the matrix fraction. The -302 mV component is probably lipoamide dehydrogenase. A high redox potential species with Em7.4 = +19 mV in titrations with the succinate fumarate couple was located in the inner membrane vesicles and is probably identical with succinate dehydrogenase. The electron-transferring flavoprotein (ETF) was isolated from bovine heart mitochondria and its Em7.4 = -74 mV determined. The component in the matrix fraction with an apparent Em7.4 = -56 mV probably represents ETF, and that in the inner membrane fraction with an apparent Em7.4 = -43 mV the NADH dehydrogenase flavoprotein. A component in an apparently low concentration with Em7.4 = +30 mV was detected in the inner membrane fraction. This probably represents the ETF-dehydrogenase flavoprotein. The origin of the flavoprotein fluorescence of mitochondria and intact tissues is discussed.

Spinal ganlia of a 9-day chick embryo were cultivated by the method of "floating rafts" in common medium (control) and in the medium containing amizyl (100 microgram/ml) or a neuregrowth factor (50 microgram/ml). With the action of amizyl there proved to be an increase in the number of surviving neurons; the majority of these neurons contained monoaminoxidase; there was a rise of NAD-diaphorase activity, and, to a lesser extent, of lactic dehydrogenase and isocitric dehydrogenase activities. The neurogrowth factor caused an increase in the number of nerve cells with acetylcholinesterase; there was an elevation of NAD-diaphorase and some rise of malic dehydrogenase activities; the activity of lactic dehydrogenase became maximal; as to succinic dehydrogenase--its activity was somewhat suppressed.

X-band electron-paramagnetic-resonance spectroscopy at 4.2--77K combined with measurements of oxidation-reduction potential was used to identify iron--sulphur centres in Arum maculatum (cuckoo-pint) mitochondria. In the oxidized state a signal with a derivative maximum at g = 2.02 was assigned to succinate dehydrogenase centre S-3. Unreduced particles showed additional signals at g = 2.04 and 1.98 (at 9.2 GHz), which may be due to a spin-spin interaction. In the reduced state a prominent signal at g = 1.93 and 2.02 was resolved into at least three components that could be assigned to centres S-1 and S-2 of succinate dehydrogenase (midpoint potentials -7 and -240 mV respectively at pH 7.2) and a small amount of centre N-1b (e'o= -240 mV) of NADH-ubiquinone reductase. In addition, changes in line shape around -10 mV indicated the presence of a fourth component in this signal. The latter was more readily reduced by NADH than by succinate, suggesting that it might be associated with the external NADH dehydrogenase. The iron-sulphur centres of NADH-ubiquinone reductase were present in an unusually low concentration, indicating that the alternative, non-phosphorylating, NADH dehydrogenase containing a low number of iron-sulphur centres may be responsible for most of the high rate of oxidation of NADH.

In the cells of RH, SPEV and HEp-2 lines irradiated with 6.5 mm radiowaves of 1 mW/cm2 flux density the following phenomena were established: activation of succinate dehydrogenase and ATPase; reduction of cytochrome oxidase, NAD- and NADP-diaphorase, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities; repression of 3H-thymidine incorporation in DNA and of 3H-uridine incorporation in RNA; violation of ultrastructure; suppression of cellular proliferation; decrease of mitotic activity; occurrence of pathological forms of mitosis.

The rabbits being repeatedly poisoned with small doses of sodium cyanide, the activity of succinic dehydrogenase in the tissues does not essentially change. The activity of NAD.H2-cytochrome-c-reductase and NAD.H2-diaphorase in the brain, myocardium and kidneys increases. Under histotoxic hypoxia the level of iron in the tissues increases by 52-93%, that of copper--by 28-36%, of zinc--by 21-74% and of cobalt by 28-40%. There existed a positive correlation between the content of iron and the activity of NAD-dependent enzymes. In nonlethal form of histotoxic hypoxia the content of nonhemin iron and the activity of NAD.H2-cytochrome-c-reductase in the mitochondria of the brain increases by 25% and 17%, respectively, and a direct correlation is revealed between them.

A sporadic case of central core disease in a 5 1/2-year-old girl is reported. Clinically, a retarded motor development existed, furthermore, a muscle weakness and hypotonia of the extremities and trunk, contractures of the hip- and knee-joint,and luxation of both hip-joints. Biopsy specimens are taken from both Mm. gastrocnemii. Muscle fibres show, by morphologic examination, 95 per cent cores, which are characteristic for this myopathy. A further abnormality is seen inthe histochemical preparations for phosphorylase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD diaphorase tetrazolium reductase, myofibrillar ATPase as well as AS-reaction with and without diastase digestion. With these techniques the muscle fibres show an uniform reaction pattern in which the activities of the oxidative andglycolytic enzymes correspond to the type I fibres of healthy persons. The cores show a lack of a activity of the oxidative and glycolytic enzymes as well as are ATPase- and PAS-negative. By reason of this histochemical behaviour it is suggested that the cores are predominantly unstructured. The cause of this disease might be complex disturbances in the neuro-muscular system manifested in the fetal period.
