A fragment containing non-heme iron and acid-labile sulfide but little flavin can be solubilized from the mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex with chaotropic agents. This iron-protein fragment [Hatefi, Y., & Stempel, K. E. (1969) J. Biol. Chem. 244, 2350] has been resolved with detergents and ammonium sulfate fractionation into iron and acid-labile sulfide containing fractions, here called ISP-I and ISP-(II + III). ISP-I consists predominantly of a single polypeptide of molecular weight 75000. ISP-(II + III) consists predominantly of three polypeptides in equimolar concentrations with molecular weights of 49,000, 30000, and 13000. Treatment of the latter with sodium trichloroacetate followed by ammonium sulfate fraction results in separation of the 49000 molecular weight polypeptide from the two smaller subunits. Both of these subfractions (ISP-II and ISP-III, respectively) contain non-heme iron. The three iron-sulfur proteins have been characterized by their absorption spectra and iron and acid-labile sulfide contents. On the basis of the distribution of iron among the fractions obtained from chaotropic resolution of the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex, a minimum of six or seven iron-sulfur centers are present in this enzyme.

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase-derived NO and its derivative, peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), suppresses oxygen consumption by nitration of mitochondrial proteins after reperfusion. However, very few nitrated proteins are identified to date. In this paper, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury was induced in mouse heart by ligation and release of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Western blotting showed that tyrosine nitration was higher in I/R hearts. Nitrated proteins were identified by capillary-liquid chromatography-nanospray tandem mass spectrometry. A total of 23 proteins were identified as being nitrated after I/R and 10 of them were from mitochondria. The nitrated mitochondrial proteins included 4 subunits from the oxidative phosphorylation system (the 24 and the 30 kDa subunits of complex I, the Rieske ISP of complex III, and the alpha subunit of ATP synthase), five enzymes in the matrix, and voltage-dependent anion channel. In purified complex I treated with ONOO(-), 3-NT was identified locating at the residue of Y247 of the 30 kDa subunit and the residues of Y47, Y53 of the 49 kDa subunit. In conclusion, I/R induced protein nitration and mitochondrial proteins were the major targets. Selective nitration of proteins from the oxidative phosphorylation system at the beginning of reperfusion may contribute to the suppression of oxygen consumption.
