Treatment of submitochondrial particles (ETP) with trypsin at 0 degrees destroyed NADPH leads to NAD (or 3-acetylpyridine adenine dinucleotide, AcPyAD) transhydrogenase activity. NADH oxidase activity was unaffected; NADPH oxidase and NADH leads to AcPyAD transhydrogenase activities were diminished by less than 10%. When ETP was incubated with trypsin at 30 degrees, NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase activity was rapidly lost, NADPH oxidase activity was slowly destroyed, but NADH oxidase activity remained intact. The reduction pattern by NADPH, NADPH + NAD, and NADH of chromophores absorbing at 475 minus 510 nm (flavin and iron-sulfur centers) in complex I (NADH-ubiquinone reductase) or ETP treated with trypsin at 0 degrees also indicated specific destruction of transhydrogenase activity. The sensitivity of the NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase reaction to trypsin suggested the involvement of susceptible arginyl residues in the enzyme. Arginyl residues are considered to be positively charged binding sites for anionic substrates and ligands in many enzymes. Treatment of ETP with the specific arginine-binding reagent, butanedione, inhibited transhydrogenation from NADPH leads to NAD (or AcPyAD). It had no effect on NADH oxidation, and inhibited NADPH oxidation and NADH leads to AcPyAD transhydrogenation by only 10 to 15% even after 30 to 60 min incubation of ETP with butanedione. The inhibition of NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenation was diminished considerably when butanedione was added to ETP in the presence of NAD or NADP. When both NAD and NADP were present, the butanedione effect was completely abolished, thus suggesting the possible presence of arginyl residues at the nucleotide binding site of the NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase enzyme. Under conditions that transhydrogenation from NADPH to NAD was completely inhibited by trypsin or butanedione, NADPH oxidation rate was larger than or equal to 220 nmol min-1 mg-1 ETP protein at pH 6.0 and 30 degrees. The above results establish that in the respiratory chain of beef-heart mitochondria NADH oxidation, NADPH oxidation, and NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenation are independent reactions.

The purified respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli oxidizes NADH with either dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP). ferricyanide, or menadione as electron acceptors, with values for NADH are similar with the three electron acceptors (approximately 50 muM). The purified enzyme contains no flavin and has an absolute requirement for FAD, with Km values around 4 muM. The pH optimum of the enzyme appears to be between 6.5 and 7; the optimum is difficult to establish because of nonenzymatic reduction of DCIP at the lower pH values. Potassium cyanide stimulates the DCIP reductase activity about 2-fold, but has no effect on ferricyanide reductase. The enzyme exhibits hyperbolic kinetics with respect to NADH concentration in both the ferricyanide and DCIP reductase assays, but cooperatively is seen in the menadione reductase reaction. NAD+ is an effective competitive inhibitor of the reaction (Ki congruent to 20 muM); in the presence of NAD+, the NADH saturation curve becomes cooperative, even in the DCIP reductase assay. Many adenine containing nucleotides are competitive inhibitors of the enzyme. The apparent Ki values for these nucleotides as inhibitors of the purified enzyme, the membrane-bound NADH dehydrogenase, and the NADH oxidase are equivalent. An examination of inhibitory effects of a series of adenine nucleotides suggests that the inhibitors act as analogues of NAD+, which is the true physiological inhibitor. The results suggest that the enzyme in situ is always partially inhibited by the levels of NAD- in the E coli cell, and thus behaves in a cooperative fashion to changes in the NAD+/NADH ratio. An antibody has been elicited against the purified NADH dehydrogenase. Immunodiffusion and crossed immunoelectrophoresis show that the antibody is directed principally against the NADH dehydrogenase, with some activity against minor contaminants in the purified preparation. The antibody inhibits NADH dehydrogenase activity 50% at saturating levels. When this antibody preparation is used to examine solubilized membrane preparations, two major immunoprecipitates are found. A parallel inhibition of the membrane-bound NADH dehydrogenase and NADH oxidase activities is seen, supporting the hypothesis that the purified enzyme is indeed a component of the respiratory chain-dependent NADH oxidase pathway.

The soluble NADH dehydrogenase of low molecular weight, isolated from complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.5.3) of the respiratory chain, has been shown to have NADPH dehydrogenase and NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase activities. Both activities are greatly increased in the presence of added guanidine-HCl and at pH values less than 6.5. The chromophores of the soluble enzyme (flavin and iron--sulfur centers) are reduced by NADH and NADPH to the same extent. The latter reduction is extremely slow, and is considerably stimulated in the presence of guanidine-HCl. The soluble dehydrogenase has little or no NADH leads to NADP and NADPH leads to NADP transhydrogenase activity. The former reaction is known to be energy-linked in submitochondrial particles; the latter was shown in the present studies also to be energy-linked. In view of the above and earlier results, possible mechanisms for dehydrogenation and transhydrogenation (nonenergy-linked and energy-linked) involving reduced and oxidized NAD and NADP are proposed.

1. Oxidation of NADPH by various acceptors catalyzed by submitochondrial particles and a partially purified NADH dehydrogenase from beef heart was investigated. Submitochondrial particles devoid of nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase activity catalyze an oxidation of NADPH by oxygen. The partially purified NADH dehydrogenase prepared from these particles catalyzes an oxidation of NADPH by acetylpyridine-NAD. In both cases the rates of oxidation are about two orders of magnitude lower than those obtained with NADH as electron donor. 2. The kinetic characteristics of the NADPH oxidase reaction and reduction of acetylpyridine-NAD by NADPH are similar with regard to pH dependences and affinities for NADPH, indicating that both reactions involve the same binding site for NADPH. The binding of NADPH to this site appears to be rate limiting for the overall reactions. 3. At redox equilibrium NADPH and NADH reduce FMN and iron-sulphur center 1 of NADH dehydrogenase to the same extents. The rate of reduction of FMN by NADPH is at least two orders of magnitude lower than with NADH. 4. It is concluded that NADPH is a substrate of NADH dehydrogenase and that the nicotinamide nucleotide is oxidized by submitochondrial particles via the NADH--binding site of the enzyme.

(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.

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.

NAD+ had a biphasic effect on the NADH oxidase activity in electron transport particles from Mycobacterium phlei. The oxidase was inhibited competitively by NAD+ at concentrations above 0.05 mM. NAD+ in concentrations from 0.02 to 0.05 mM resulted in maximum stimulation of both NADH oxidation and oxygen uptake with concentrations of substrate both above and below the apparent K-M. Oxygen uptake and cyanide sensitivity indicated that the NAD+ stimulatory effect was linked to the terminal respiratory chain. The stimulatory effect was specific for NAD+. NAD+ was also specific in protecting the oxidase during heating at 50 degrees and against inactivation during storage at 0 degrees. NAD+ glycohydrolase did not affect stimulation nor heat protection of the NADH oxidase activity if the particles were previously preincubated with NAD+. Binding studies revealed that the particles bound approximately 3.6 pmol of [14C1NAD+ per mg of electron transport particle protein. Although bound NAD+ represented only a small fraction of the total added NAD+ necessary for maximal stimulation, removal of the apparently unbound NAD+ by Sephadex chromatography revealed that particles retained the stimulated state for at least 48 hours. Further addition of NAD+ to stimulated washed particles resulted in competitive inhibition of oxidase activity. Desensitization of the oxidase to the stimulatory effect of NAD+ was achieved by heating the particles at 50 degrees for 2 min without appreciable loss of enzymatic activity. Kinetic studies indicated that addition of NADH to electron transport particles prior to preincubation with NAD+ inhibited stimulation. In addition, NADH inhibited binding of [14C]NAD+. The utilization of artificial electron acceptors, which act as a shunt of the respiratory chain at or near the flavoprotein component, indicated that NAD+ acts as at the level of the NADH dehydrogenase at a site other than the catalytic one resulting in a conformational change which causes restoration as well as protection of oxidase activity.

The actions of Dexon on the NADH-ferricyanide oxidoreductase and the NADPH oxidase system of electron transfer particles (ETP) from beef heart as well as on the NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase from brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces carlsbergensis Hansen) were investigated. The inhibition of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of ETP and that of the yeast enzyme correspond with respect to the following characteristics: 1) increase in the inhibition, 2) enhancement of the Dexon sensitivity by one order of magnitude after preincubation in the presence of NAD(P)H, 3) irreversibility of the inhibition, 4) no detectable changes in the spectral properties and in coenzyme activity of FMN after acid extraction from Dexon-treated enzyme. The inhibition of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of ETP is diminished by both NAD+ and FMN. However, no interaction of Dexon with NAD(P)H or FMN could be detected in the absence of enzyme or apoenzyme. The concentration of half-inhibition by Dexon for the yeast enzyme corresponds with its FMN concentration. It is proposed that both apoenzyme, NAD(P)H and FMN are involved in the interaction with Dexon. Possible mechanisms of binding are both complanar complexations of the ring systems and a triazene formation between FMNH2 and Dexon. The NADPH oxidase activity of the ETP is partly inhibited; the share inhibited by Dexon may represent the pathway via the transhydrogenase reaction.

This paper presents data on two sisters with a mitochondrial myopathy characterised by weakness, marked exercise intolerance and a fluctuating lactic acidaemia. Both patients also experienced episodes of increased weakness which could be brought on by unaccustomed activity, going without food or by taking small quantities of alcohol. Metabolic studies during exercise showed a marked and sudden rise in blood lactate and pyruvate levels. Biochemical studies in one case showed that mitochondrial respiratory rates were markedly decreased with all NAD-linked substrates tested but were normal with succinate and with TMPD + ascorbate. The mitochondrial cytochrome components were normal as determined by low temperature spectroscopy and the addition of uncoupler did not enhance state 3 respiratory rates utilising NAD-linked substrates. It was concluded, therefore, that the mitochondrial lesion was located at the level of the NADH-CoQ reductase complex.
