Complex II (succinate-coenzyme Q reductase) was resolved into ten different polypeptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Four polypeptides, CII-1, CII-2, CII-3, and CII-4 with molecular weights of 70 000, 24 000, 13 500, and 7000, were present in large amounts in all preparations examined. CII-1 and CII-2 are the flavoprotein and iron-sulfur protein, respectively, of succinate dehydrogenase; CII-3 and CII-4 have not been functionally indentified. Six polypeptides were present in much smaller amoumts as judged by staining intensity, and each of these comigrated with components in complex III. The amino acid compositions of several of the minor components in complex II were identical with that of an equivalently migrating polypeptide in complex III. We conclude that succinate-coenzyme Q reductase contains four different polypeptides and is contaminated with variable amounts of complex III when isolated as complex II.

Oxathiin carboxanilides are systemic fungicides that inhibit the oxidation of succinate by interrupting electron transport between succinate dehydrogenase [succinate:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.3.99.1] and coenzyme Q. Kinetic and electron paramagnetic resonance studies have established that the specific binding site of carboxanilides and of thenoyltrifluoroacetone responsible for the inhibition is the same. Although the binding of carboxanilides to membrane preparations of the dehydrogenase is very tight (Ki = 0.01-0.1 microM), it is noncovalent. Identification of the membrane component(s) to which specific binding occurs has therefore required the introduction of a photoaffinity label onto the carboxanilide molecule. By using [G-3H]3'-azido-5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxanilide, it was found, in accord with earlier data with other carboxanilides, that unresolved complex II specifically binds about 0.6 mol of the inhibitor per mol of succinate dehydrogenase in equilibrium dialysis experiments. The resolved components of the complex, succinate dehydrogenase and the two binding peptides CII-3 and CII-4, failed to bind the inhibitor; however, when these were recombined with reconstitution of coenzyme Q reductase activity, the initial binding titer was restored. Azidocarboxanilide-inhibited complex II was irradiated to generate covalent linkages with the binding site, and the components of the complex were separated on polyacrylamide gel. Most of the specifically bound inhibitor was found in the low molecular weight binding peptides and phospholipids.

The interaction of purified succinate dehydrogenase and succinate--ubiquinone reductase (complex II) with lipids was explored by using two (arylazido)phospholipids, one with the reactive nitrene in the head-group region of the bilayer [1-palmitoyl-2-(2-azido-4-nitrobenzoyl)-sn-glycero-3-[3H]phosphocholine (PLII)] and one with the nitrene on the methyl terminus of one of the fatty acid chains [1-myristoyl-2-[12-[(2-azido-4-nitrophenyl)amino]lauroyl]-sn-glycero-3-[14C]phosphocholine (PLI)]. Protein was reacted with vesicles of egg lecithin containing radioactive (arylazido)-phospholipids and the covalent cross-linking of lipid and protein induced by irradiation under UV light. Purified succinate dehydrogenase was found to bind to lipid vesicles through both subunits as both were labeled by PLII. The smaller subunit was inserted into the interior of the bilayer and labeled by PLI. Complex II was found to interact with lipid vesicles, with the smaller subunit of succinate dehydrogenase, CII-3, and CII-4 all inserted into the interior of the bilayer. The large subunit of succinate dehydrogenase was found to be held above the bilayer in complex II and not labeled by either probe. Results are used to derive a picture of the arrangement of subunits in complex II and to evaluate the utility of (arylazido)-phospholipids in membrane studies.

We provide the first full-length cDNA and amino acid sequences for beef heart CII-3, one of two hydrophobic subunits that bind succinate dehydrogenase to the mitochondrial inner membrane to form succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (EC 1.3.99.1). Other low molecular weight proteins present in preparations of the isolated complex, including three possible forms of the second anchor polypeptide CII-4, have been identified by amino terminal sequencing.

Succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1) is an intrinsic bacterial or inner mitochondrial membrane protein that catalyses the oxidation of succinate and donates electrons to the respiratory chain via quinone acceptors. It is a heterotetramer composed of a flavoprotein, an iron-sulfur, and two hydrophobic subunits. We purified succinate dehydrogenase by blue native gel electrophoresis, determined the amino-terminal sequence of the Sdh4p subunit and used this information to clone the SDH4 gene. It encodes a precursor protein of 181 amino acids that is converted to the 150-amino acid mature Sdh4p protein with a mass of 16,638 Da. Hydrophobicity analysis predicts that Sdh4p forms three transmembrane alpha-helices. We have constructed an SDH4 mutant by targeted gene disruption; it retains the ability to grow on rich glycerol medium. Western blot analysis of SDH4 disruption mutant membrane fractions indicates that membrane attachment of the flavoprotein and iron-sulfur subunits is impaired but not abolished. This membrane-bound enzyme is able to reduce ubiquinone, although less efficiently than the wild-type enzyme. These findings indicate that Sdh4p contributes both to the membrane attachment of the catalytic flavoprotein and iron-sulfur subunits and to electron transfer to ubiquinone.

Using an expression library, we have isolated yeast genes activated in the presence of the yeast CCAAT box-binding protein HAP2. One of these genes, SDH3, encodes the cytochrome b560 subunit of respiratory complex II. The SDH3 protein contains three potential transmembrane domains and is more than 30% identical to bovine cytochrome b560 and to a mitochondrially encoded protein from Marchantia polymorpha. Disruption of SDH3 shows that this gene is required for growth on non-fermentable carbon sources. Expression of SDH1, SDH3, and SDH4 is activated in the presence of the HAP2 transcriptional activator.

The succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is composed of four nonidentical subunits encoded by the nuclear genes SDH1, SDH2, SDH3, and SDH4. The hydrophilic subunits, SDH1p and SDH2p, comprise the catalytic domain involved in succinate oxidation. They are anchored to the inner mitochondrial membrane by two small, hydrophobic subunits, SDH3p and SDH4p, which are required for electron transfer and ubiquinone reduction. Comparison of the deduced primary sequence of the yeast SDH4p subunit to SDH4p subunits from other species reveals the presence of an unusual 25-30 amino acid carboxyl-terminal extension following the last predicted transmembrane domain. The extension is predicted to be on the cytoplasmic side of the inner mitochondrial membrane. To investigate the extension's function, three truncations were created and characterized. The results reveal that the carboxyl-terminal extension is necessary for respiration and growth on nonfermentable carbon sources, for ubiquinone reduction, and for enzyme stability. Combined with inhibitor studies using a ubiquinone analog, our results suggest that the extension and more specifically, residues 128-135 are involved in the formation of a ubiquinone binding site. Our findings support a two-ubiquinone binding site model for the S. cerevisiae SDH.

Complex II (succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) from Escherichia coli contains four different subunits. Two of the subunits (SDHC and SDHD) are hydrophobic and anchor the two more hydrophilic (flavin and iron-sulfur) subunits (SDHA and SDHB) to the cytoplasmic membrane. Previous studies have shown that the complex of SDHC/SDHD is required to maintain the heme B component of the enzyme and that the heme B is ligated to the protein by two histidine ligands. In the current work, the histidines within SDHC and SDHD have been systematically mutated. SDHC-His91 and SDHD-His14 were eliminated as potential ligands by these studies. SDHC-His84 and SDHD-His71 have been identified as the most likely heme axial ligands in the E. coli enzyme, suggesting that the heme bridges these two subunits in the membrane. Furthermore, the results show that the four-subunit Complex II assembles and retains function despite the absence of the heme B prosthetic group in the membrane. The results do not rule out completely SDHC-His30 as a candidate for heme ligation, but do show that mutation at this position prevents assembly of Complex II in the membrane.

Complex II (succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) is an important enzyme complex in both the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the aerobic respiratory chains of mitochondria in eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic organisms. In this study, the amino acid sequences of the large (cybL) and small (cybS) subunits of cytochrome b in human liver complex II were deduced from cDNAs isolated by homology probing with mixed primers for the polymerase chain reaction. The mature cybL and cybS contain 140 and 103 amino acids, respectively, and show little similarity to the amino acid sequences of the subunits from other species in contrast to the highly conserved features of the flavoprotein (Fp) subunit and iron-sulfur protein (Ip) subunit. From hydrophobicity analysis, both cybL and cybS appear to have three transmembrane segments, indicating their role as membrane-anchors for the enzyme complex. Histidine residues, which are possible heme axial ligands in cytochrome b of complex II, were found in the second transmembrane segment of each subunit. The genes for cybL (SDHC) and cybS (SDHD) were mapped to chromosome 1q21 and 11q23, respectively by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH).

Complex II of mitochondria contains succinate dehydrogenase and subunits to link this enzyme directly to the inner mitochondrial membrane. The four peptides of this complex are the flavoprotein (Fp) and iron-sulfur protein (Ip) of the dehydrogenase, and two integral membrane proteins referred to as C(II-3) and C(II-4). Their respective genes in mammals are SDHA, SDHB, SDHC and SDHD) in order of decreasing molecular weights of the peptides. In this paper we describe the identification of two pseudogenes and the complete characterization and mapping of the active SDHC gene in humans. The active gene, encoding a small peptide of 15.5 kDa, has six exons and five introns extending over 35 kb. It has been mapped at position 1q21, adjacent to the pericentric heterochromatin on the long arm of chromosome 1. Approximately I kb of the promoter region has also been sequenced and examined for sequence motifs suggesting the binding of known transcription factors. Several potential sites for the nuclear respiratory factors NRF-1 and NRF-2 were identified.
