(1) Studies of the steady-state kinetics of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of Complex I (NADH: Q oxidoreductase) revealed that the reaction mechanism with the one-electron acceptor ferricyanide or the two-electron acceptor 2,6-dichloro-indophenol is ping pong bi bi, with double substrate inhibition. NADH inhibits the reaction of the reduced form of the flavoprotein with the acceptors, and the acceptors prevent NADH from reacting with the oxidized form. This implies that both NADH and acceptors react with the same site on NADH dehydrogenase. (2) The velocity at infinite NADH and acceptor concentrations (corrected for the double substrate inhibition) is much larger with ferricyanide than with the indophenol. It is concluded that the latter binds to the reduced enzyme. Thus, with ferricyanide the rate constant measured refers to the dissociation of bound NAD+ from the reduced enzyme (k2) and with the indophenol to the rate constant of oxidation of reduced enzyme by bound acceptor (k4). The latter value is not an estimate for the situation in vivo, where ubiquinone is the acceptor. (3) The rate constant of the dissociation of bound NAD+ from the reduced enzyme (k2) increases with pH. It is suggested that an ionizing group on the enzyme is involved in the dissociation. (4) After extraction of ubiquinone from Complex I with pentane curve relating activity at infinite ferricyanide concentration to NADH concentration changes from hyperbolic to sigmoidal. The hyperbolic curve is restored by reincorporating ubiquinone. It is concluded that ubiquinone is an effector for NADH dehydrogenase.

(1) The steady-state kinetics of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of Type-II (low molecular weight) NADH dehydrogenase with the acceptors ferricyanide, cytochrome c and 2,6-dichloroindophenol are consistent with the simultaneous operation of an ordered and a ping-pong mechanism. Thus, depending on the acceptor concentration, the reduced enzyme is preferentially oxidized before or after NAD+ disociates from it. (2) The acceptors are able to oxidize the reduced enzyme and its NAD+ complex equally well. In contrast to the kinetics of the Type-I (high molecular weight) enzyme, double substrate inhibition is not found, implying that the site of oxidation of the reduced enzyme by acceptors and the NADH-binding site are remote. (3) With the indophenol, in the concentration range measured, the ordered mechanism is mainly operative. At infinite NADH and acceptor concentrations the rate constant of the reduction of enzyme by bound NADH is measured. (4) With ferricyanide and cytochrome c, in the concentration range measured, erroneous conclusions may be drawn from extrapolations owing to the fact that extrapolated lines in double-reciprocal plots of turnover number against acceptor concentration, at different NADH concentrations, intersect in the third quadrant. A method is described that allows the extrapolation of these data to zero acceptor concentrations. (5) The relation between activity and NADH concentration is sigmoidal (h = 2.0) with ferricyanide or cytochrome c as acceptor, but hyperbolic with 2,6-dichloroindophenol. The latter is also an inhibitor, competitive with respect to NADH. It is concluded that this two-electron acceptor, like ubiquinone, acts as an allosteric effector. (6) Type II is isolated from Type I without gross changes in tertiary structure, as judged by the unaltered rate constants of dissociation of NADH (k-1) and NAD+ (k4) and association of NADH (k1). (7) Type II differs from Type I in two respects, (a) The accessibility of the acceptors is greater by at least two orders of magnitude (k3). (b) The redox potential of the prosthetic group FMN is 120 mV less, as judged by a drop in the value of k2 by four orders of magnitude. It is suggested that one or more of the iron-sulphur proteins present in Type-I but lacking in Type-II dehydrogenase functions as an effector, regulating the redox potential of the FMN.

1. Of various phospholipids tested, lysolecithin was the most efficient in the solubilization of the components of beef heart submitochondrial particles. Lysolecithin solubilized selectively nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase and oligomycin-sensitive ATPase. Various cytochromes other than cytochrome c were only slightly solubilized. 2. The effect of various parameters, e.g. ionic strength, pH, time of centrifugation, and concentrations of lysolecithin and protein was investigated. Increasing times of centrifugation led to a partial sedimentation of NADH dehydrogenase, and a complete sedimentation of oligomycin-sensitive ATPase and cytochrome oxidase. 3. Further fractionation of the lysolecithin extract by centrifugation in the presence of low concentrations of cholate gave a complete separation of NADH dehydrogenase and transhydrogenase, indicating that these enzymes are not related functionally. 4. With the lysolecithin fractionation procedure a more than 10-fold purification of transhydrogenase was achieved. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the partially purified transhydrogenase in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate showed major increases in protein-stained bands corresponding to between 70 000 and 54 000 daltons. 5. A possible mechanism for the detergent action of lysolecithin involving a specific exchange of bound phospholipids for lysolecithin is discussed.

(1) The EPR spectrum of Center 1 of NADH dehydrogenase in isolated Complex I or submitochondrial particles from beef heart consists of two overlapping nearly axial signals of the same intensity. They are defined as Center 1a (gll = 0.021, gl = 1.938) and Center 1b (gll = 2.021, gl = 1.928). (2) The line shape of the EPR spectrum of the Center 3+4 can be interpreted as an overlap of two rhombic signals of the same intensity. We define Center 3 by the g-values: gz=2.103, gy = 1.93-1.94, gx=1.884, and Center 4 by the values gz=2.04, gy=1.92-1.93, gx=1.863. (3) Direct quantitation of the individuals signals as well as computer stimulation suggests that the amount of the Centers 1a and 1b is only 25% of that of the other individuals centers and FMN. As EPR spectra of beef-heart submitochondrial particles at 10-20 K are nearly identical to those of Complex I, the same relative concentrations of the Fe-S centers are also present in the particles. (4) The signals either observed by us in EPR spectra of Complex I and submitochondrial particles at 4.2 K and high microwave powers can now be explained without assuming more than 5 paramagnetic centers in NADH dehydrogenase.

Membrane vesicles of Escherichia coli prepared by osmotic lysis of lysozyme ethylenediaminetetracetate (EDTA) spheroplasts have approximately 60% of the total membrane-bound reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) dehydrogenase (ED 1.6.99.3) and Mg2+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) (EC 3.6.1.3) activities exposed on the outer surface of the inner membrane. Absorption of these vesicles with antiserum prepared against the purified soluble Mg2+-ATPase resulted in agglutination of approximately 95% of the inner membrane vesicles, as determined by dehydrogenase activity, and about 50% of the total membrane protein. The unagglutinated vesicles lacked all dehydrogenase activity and may consist of outer membrane. Lysozyme-EDTA vesicles actively transported calcium ion, using either NADH or adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) as energy source. However, neither D-lactate nor reduced phenazine methosulfate energized calcium uptake, suggesting that the observed calcium uptake was not due to a small population of everted vesicles. Transport of calcium driven by either NADH or ATP was inhibited by simultaneous addition of D-lactate or reduced phenazine methosulfate. Proline transport driven by D-lactate oxidation was inhibited by either NADH oxidation or ATP hydrolysis. These results suggest that the portion of the total population of vesicles capable of active transport, i.e., the inner membrane vesicles, are functionally a homogeneous population but cannot be categorized as either right-side-out or everted, since activities normally associated with only one side of the inner membrane can be found on both sides of the membrane of these vesicles. Moreover, the data indicate that oxidation of NADH or hydrolysis of ATP by externally localized NADH dehydrogenase or Mg2+-ATPase establishes a protonmotive force of the opposite polarity from that established through D-lactate oxidation.

The ability of the isomeric quinone metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[a]pyrene-6,12-dione, benzo[a]pyrene-1,6-dione, and benzo[a]pyrene-3,6-dione to undergo reversible, univalent oxidation-reduction cycles involving the corresponding benzo[a]pyrenediols and intermediate semiquinone radicals has been characterized. Under anaerobic conditions, all three benzo[a]pyrenediones are easily reduced to benzo[a]pyrenediols, even by mild biological agents such as NAD(P)H, cysteamine, and glutathione. The benzo[a]pyrenediols, in turn, are very rapidly autoxidized to the benzo[a]pyrenediones when exposed to air. Substantial amounts of hydrogen peroxide are produced during these autoxidations, and other reactive reduced oxygen species, such as the superoxide and hydroxyl radicals, are probably formed transiently as well. The benzo[a]pyrenediol-benzo[a]pyrenedione interconversions proceed by one-electron steps; the corresponsing semiquinone radicals can be monitored by electron spin resonance spectroscopy as inter mediates during these reactions carried out at high pH. Benzo[a]pyrenediones induce DNA strand scission when incubated with bacteriophage T7 DNA. This damage is modified by conditions which indicate that reduced oxygen species propagate the free-radical reactions responsible for the strand scission. Benzo[a]pyrenediones are electron-acceptor substrates for NADH dehydrogenase from Clostridium kluyveri. Catalytic amounds of these benzo[a]pyrene metabolites, together with this respiratory enzyme function as cyclic oxidation-reduction couples which link NADH and molecular oxygen in the continuous production of hydrogen peroxide. These data, together with preliminary results with cells in culture, indicate that benzo[a]pyrenediones are potentially harmful metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene, acting by processes which lead to their regeneration rather than depletion; nucleic acid and call damage is probably produced by the reactive reduced oxygen species resulting from such regenerative oxidation-reduction cycles.

A carrier protein mediating alanine transport was purified from the membranes of the thermophilic bacterium PS3, by ion exchange chromatography in the presence of both Triton X-100 and urea. The alanine carrier was recovered in the nonadsorbed fraction from either DEAE- or CM-cellulose columns, suggesting that its isoelectric point was in the neutral pH region. The final preparation contained virtually no electron transfer components, ATPase, or NADH dehydrogenase. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the final preparation consisted of two major protein components with molecular weights of 36,000 and 9,400. Active transport of alanine after incorporation of the alanine carrier into reconstituted proteoliposomes was driven not only by an artificial membrane potential generated by potassium ion diffusion via valinomycin but also by mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase incorporated into the same liposomes and supplemented with both cytochrome c and ascorbic acid. The membrane-integrated portion (TFo) of the ATPase complex uncoupled alanine transport by conducting protons across the membrane.

1. From the 57Fe hyperfine interaction in EPR spectra of reduced submitochondrial particles from the yeast Candida utilis, grown with 57Fe, it is concluded that all Fe-S centers in these particles detectable in spectra at 35-80 K are [2Fe-2S]2-(2-; 3-) centers. These are the centers 1 of NADH and succinate dehydrogenase, the Rieske Fe-S center and possibly center 2 of succinate dehydrogenase. 2. The signals of the reduced particles detectable only at temperatures below 20 K are [4Fe-4S]2-(2-; 3-) clusters. These are the centers 2,3 and 4 of NADH dehydrogenase. 3. EPR spectra of the [2Fe-2S]3- centers of Complex I and II, but not that of Complex III, display a great inequality of the Fe nuclei in the effective hyperfine interaction in the x-y direction.

1. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectra at 15 K of reduced membrane particles of Paracoccus denitrificans exhibit resonance signals with g values, line shapes and temperature profile which are similar to the signals of the iron-sulfur centers observed in the NADH-ubiquinone segment of mitochondrial respiratory chains. These iron-sulfur centers are reducible with NADH, NADPH as well as chemically with dithionite. 2. Sulphate-limited growth of Paracoccus denitrificans results in the loss of an electron paramagnetic resonance signal (gz approximately 2.05, gy approximately gx approximately 1.92) which has properties similar to those of iron-sulfur center 2 of the NADH dehydrogenase of mitochondrial origin. The loss of this signal is accompanied by a decrease in the NADH oxidase and NADH ferricyanide oxidoreductase activities to respectively 30 and 40% of the values found for succinate-limited growth conditions. In addition respiration in membrane particles from sulphate-limited cells loses its sensitivity to rotenone. 3. Since sulphate-limited growth of Paracoccus denitrificans induces loss of site I phosphorylation [Arch. Microbiol. (1977) 112, 25-34] these observations suggest a close correlation between site I phosphorylation, rotenone-sensitivity and the presence of an electron paramagnetic resonance signal with gz approximately 2.05 and gy approximately gx approximately 1.92.

Oxidation of exogenous NADH in mitochondria isolated from wild type and mi-1 mutant of Neurospora crassa decreases rapidly in vitro. In mi-1 mutant mitochondria the inactivation concerns the alternate pathway of oxidation whereas in the wild type it involves an unknown component of the respiratory chain. The activity of the primary NADH dehydrogenase is constant within the time of the experiments (2-4 h). NADH oxidase is not inactivated if oxygen is removed from the incubation medium by nitrogen bubbling. Succinate oxidase does not show any remarkable changes in activity within 2-3 h. In fresh mitochondria of the mi-1 mutant reduced ubiquinone is completely reoxidized by cytochrome oxidase but only 80% reoxidized by the alternate oxidase. In aged mitochondria of the mi-1 mutant in the presence of cyanide, ubiquinone is reduced to the level characteristic for fresh mitochondria in which respiration is completely inhibited by cyanide plus salicylhydroxamic acid. In these mitochondria the reoxidation of the reduced ubiquinone proceeds only via the cytochrome pathway. It is supposed that a labile component(s) of the respiratory chain present in the mi-1 mutant and the wild type mitochondria may, in mi-1 mutant, act as an alternate oxidase.
