Monodehydroascorbate reductase (EC 1.6.5.4) was purified from cucumber fruit to a homogeneous state as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The cucumber monodehydroascorbate reductase was a monomer with a molecular weight of 47,000. It contained 1 mol of FAD/mol of enzyme which was reduced by NAD(P)H and reoxidized by monodehydroascorbate. The enzyme had an exposed thiol group whose blockage with thiol reagents inhibited the electron transfer from NAD(P)H to the enzyme FAD. Both NADH and NADPH served as electron donors with Km values of 4.6 and 23 microM, respectively, and Vmax of 200 mol of NADH and 150 mol of NADPH oxidized mol of enzyme-1 s-1. The Km for monodehydroascorbate was 1.4 microM. The amino acid composition of the enzyme is presented. In addition to monodehydroascorbate, the enzyme catalyzed the reduction of ferricyanide and 2,6-dichloroindophenol but showed little reactivity with calf liver cytochrome b5 and horse heart cytochrome c. The kinetic data suggested a ping-pong mechanism for the monodehydroascorbate reductase-catalyzed reaction. Cucumber monodehydroascorbate reductase occurs in soluble form and can be distinguished from NADPH dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase, DT diaphorase, microsome-bound NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase, and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase by its molecular weight, amino acid composition, and specificity of electron acceptors and donors.

Measurements were made of the stoicheiometry of proton-translocation coupled to NAD(P)H oxidation by several quinones (duroquinone, ubiquinone(0), ubiquinone(1), ubiquinone(2)) in mitochondria from rat liver and ox heart. Observed stoicheiometries of protons translocated per mol of NADH oxidized (-->H(+)/2e(-) ratios; Mitchell, 1966) ranged from 0.75 (rat liver mitochondria with ubiquinone(1)) to 1.55 (ox heart mitochondria with ubiquinone(1) or ubiquinone(2)). Only the rotenone-sensitive pathway of NADH oxidation by quinone was able to support proton translocation. Correction of the observed -->H(+)/2e(-) ratios for the loss of reducing equivalents to the rotenone-insensitive pathway increased their value to approx. 2.0. It is concluded that the rotenone-sensitive NADH- ubiquinone reductase activity of the respiratory chain may be organized in the mitochondrial membrane as a proton-translocating oxidoreduction loop. The number of such loops between NADH and ubiquinone is one, and not two, as initially proposed by Mitchell (1966).

1. With reference to the post-operative dysfunction of the liver observed after halothane anaesthesia, the effects of the anaesthetic on some metabolic functions were studied in the isolated perfused rat liver. Oxygen uptake, glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and urea synthesis were affected by halothane at a concentration (2.5% of the gas phase) within the range used in clinical anaesthesia. 2. At this concentration of halothane uptake of oxygen was inhibited in livers from both fed and starved rats. 3. In livers from fed rats there was a 16-fold increase in lactate production. This was accompanied by a fivefold decrease in the tissue content of 2-oxoglutarate and a more than twofold decrease in citrate. The calculated [free NAD(+)]/[free NADH] ratio in both cytoplasm and mitochondria was lower in the halothane-exposed livers than in controls. 4. In livers of starved rats the rate of gluconeogenesis from lactate was decreased by halothane to 30% of the control rate. 5. Halothane inhibited gluconeogenesis from alanine and propionate to the same extent as from lactate, whereas glucose formation from dihydroxyacetone, glycerol, fructose and sorbitol was relatively unaffected. 6. During gluconeogenesis from 10mm-lactate the tissue content of ATP was decreased by 50%, glutamate by 50% and 2-oxoglutarate was decreased eightfold in the halothane-exposed livers. 7. Halothane decreased urea synthesis in the presence of 10mm-NH(4)Cl and 2mm-ornithine to 15% of the control rate. 8. The inhibitions of gluconeogenesis and urea synthesis were completely abolished within 15min of withdrawal of the anaesthetic. 9. The stimulation of uptake of oxygen brought about by the addition of lactate or precursors of urea was abolished by halothane. 10. Effects on gluconeogenesis similar to those of halothane occurred in livers exposed to the anaesthetic methoxyflurane, although normal rates were not restored on withdrawal of the drug. Other anaesthetic agents tested (ketamine-HCl and trichloroethylene) decreased gluconeogenesis to 66% of the control rate. 11. The inhibitory effects of halothane are consistent with an interference at the stage of the NADH dehydrogenase of the electron-transport chain.

The maximum Gibbs free energies of reverse electron transfer from succinate to NAD+ and from cytochrome c to fumarate driven by ATP hydrolysis in submitochondrial particles from beef heart were measured as a function of the Gibbs free energy of ATP hydrolysis. The ratio of the energies delta G'redox/delta G'ATP was 1.40 from succinate to NAD+ and 0.89 from cytochrome c to succinate. The ratio, equivalent to a thermodynamic P/2e-ratio, was dependent on whether the electrochemical proton gradient was primarily a membrane potential or a pH gradient for the cytochrome c to fumarate reaction. The results are consistent with H+/ATP = 3 for F1 ATPase, H+/2e- = 4 for NADH-CoQ reductase, and H+(matrix)/2e- = 2 for succinate-cytochrome c reductase.

Regional myocardial ischemia was produced in anesthetized dogs by occluding the left branch of the circumflex coronary artery. After 30 or 60 min of occlusion, mitochondria were isolated from both non-ischemic (control) and ischemic transmural samples of the left ventricle and septum. Mitochondria from 60 min ischemic myocardium exhibited a drop in NAD-linked state 3 respiratory rates to 56 +/- 3% of controls and a parallel loss of NADH-CoQ reductase activity to 54 +/- 4% of controls. Analyses of two non-protein components of electron transfer complex I in mitochondria isolated from 60 min ischemic myocardium revealed a decrease in acid-extractable flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to 58 +/- 5% of controls and a small decrease in ubiquinone to 89 +/- 2% of controls. The observed dissociation and apparent washout of non-covalently-bound FMN from the ischemically damaged mitochondria thus accounted nearly quantitatively for the proportionate decrease seen in NADH-CoQ reductase activity and in state 3 respiration with NAD-linked substrates.

1. The midpoint potentials of the various iron-sulphur centres in Site I were determined at different pH values by the technique of redox potentiometry. An interesting feature is the pH-dependence of Centre N-2, the highest potential component of the NADH dehydrogenase segment of the respiratory chain. 2. The apparent midpoint potentials of Centre N-2 (NADH dehydrogenase) and S-1 (succinate dehydrogenase) and their pH-dependence was also determined by using the succinate/fumarate couple. Again Centre N-2 is pH-dependent in midpoint potential, and Centre S-1 is not. The results obtained by titrating with the succinate/fumarate couple are in quantitative agreement with those obtained for these centres by redox potentiometry. 3. Oxidation-reduction titrations of iron-sulphur centres with the couple NADH/NAD+ and an analogue APADH/APAD+ in the presence of rotenone gave results substantially different from those obtained by redox potentiometry; these differences may be due to the mechanism of action of NADH dehydrogenase and its specific interaction with NADH. 5. The addition of ATP to an NAD+/NADH-poised system induces an uncoupler-sensitive oxidation of Centre N-4.

Submitochondrial particles from bovine heart in which NADH dehydrogenase is reduced by either addition of NADH and rotenone or by reversed electron transfer generate 0.9 +/- 0.1 nmol of O2-/min per mg of protein at pH 7.4 and at 30 degrees C. When NADH is used as substrate, rotenone, antimycin and cyanide increase O2- production. In NADH- and antimycin-supplemented submitochondrial particles, rotenone has a biphasic effect: it increases O2- production at the NADH dehydrogenase and it inhibits O2- production at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. The generation of O2- by the rotenone, the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide rho-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone and oligomycin at concentrations similar to those required to inhibit energy-dependent succinate-NAD reductase. Cyanide did not affect O2- generation at the NADH dehydrogenase, but inhibited O2- production at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. Production of O2- at the NADH dehydrogenase is about 50% of the O2- generation but the ubiquinone-cytochrome b area at pH 7.4. Additivity of the two mitochondrial sites of O2- generation was observed over the pH range from 7.0 to 8.8. AN O2- -dependent autocatalytic process that requires NADH, submitochondrial particles and adrenaline is described.

Ischemic myocardium was produced by occluding the left circumflex coronary artery in anesthetized dogs. Autolyzed myocardium was produced by incubating transmural samples of canine left ventricle at 37 degrees C. Tissue pH was recorded continuously in each model using a microcombination pH electrode impaled into the midmyocardium. The activities of the five mitochondrial inner membrane enzyme complexes of electron transport and coupled oxidative phosphorylation were assayed as a function of time of ischemia or autolysis. While the activities of complex II (succinate-CoQ reductase) and IV (cytochrome c oxidase) were completely stable, that of complex I (NADH-CoQ reductase) decreased markedly, but largely only after 20 min of ischemia or autolysis. At 20 min and beyond, the decrease in the activity of complex I paralleled closely the decrease in whole mitochondrial oxygen uptake with NAD-linked substrates in both models. The activity of complex III (CoQH2-c reductase) decreased at a more gradual rate during ischemia or autolysis, and its rate of decrease paralleled that of succinate-supported oxygen uptake. The activity of complex V (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase) decreased most rapidly (by 40% in only 5 min of autolysis) but nearly leveled off beyond 20 min in the two models. A strikingly similar pattern of differential enzyme lability was observed in isolated control mitochondria incubated at lowered pH values. The results demonstrate 1) differential enzyme lability within the mitochondrial inner membrane, 2) a connection between severity of acidosis and the degree of enzyme activity loss, and 3) the usefulness of simple tissue autolysis as an analogue of in situ myocardial ischemia.

Cell-free extracts of methanol-grown Nocardia sp. 239 only show significant dye-linked methanol-oxidizing activity when NAD+ is added to the assay mixture. This activity resides in a multienzyme complex which could be resolved into 3 components, namely the methanol dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase and NADH dehydrogenase. In its dissociated form, the methanol dehydrogenase no longer shows dye reduction and although rises in the absorbance values around 340 nm are seen on addition of methanol plus NAD+ to the enzyme, this is not due to NADH production. However, dye reduction (NAD dependent) could be restored on incubating methanol dehydrogenase with the corresponding NADH dehydrogenase, obtained from the enzyme complex. It is concluded that this novel methanol dehydrogenase transfers the reducing equivalents, derived from methanol, directly to its associated NADH dehydrogenase via a mechanism in which NAD+ and PQQ are involved.

Stimulation of the rates of NAD(P)H oxidation, superoxide generation, and hydrogen peroxide formation by three anthracenedione antineoplastic agents in the presence of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, NADH dehydrogenase, or rabbit hepatic microsomes was studied and the results compared with those obtained for the anthracyclines Adriamycin and daunorubicin. In all cases the anthracenediones, including mitoxantrone and ametantrone, were significantly (5- to 20-fold) less effective than the anthracyclines in stimulating NAD(P)H oxidation, superoxide formation, or hydrogen peroxide production. Of the three anthracenediones studied, the ring-monohydroxylated compound showed the greatest activity followed by the ring-dihydroxylated derivative (mitoxantrone). In contrast, the non-ring-hydroxylated anthracenedione (ametantrone) was a relatively ineffective electron acceptor and inhibited the reduction of more effective acceptors such as Adriamycin. Michaelis-Menten kinetic constants were determined by analysis of the rates of NADPH oxidation. NADP+ and 2'-AMP inhibited the reduction of the ring-hydroxylated anthracenediones and anthracyclines, demonstrating the enzymatic nature of the reaction. The non-ring-hydroxylated anthracenedione inhibited the reduction of Adriamycin by both P-450 reductase and NADH dehydrogenase with 50% inhibition achieved at approximately 300 microM. Thus, there appears to exist a structural relationship between anthracenedione ring hydroxylation and metabolic activation. These results also suggest that the relative inability of the anthracenediones to function as artificial electron acceptors in comparison to the anthracyclines may be correlated with diminished anthracenedione cardiotoxicity.
