The polypeptide composition of isolated mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone reductase (NADH dehydrogenase) is very similar to that of material immunoprecipitated from detergent-solubilized bovine heart submitochondrial particles by antisera to the holoenzyme. The specificity of the antisera for dehydrogenase polypeptides was determined by immunoblotting, which showed that antisera reacting with only a few proteins were able to immunoprecipitate all others in parallel. The polypeptide compositions of rat, rabbit and human NADH dehydrogenase were determined by immunoprecipitation of the enzyme from solubilized submitochondrial particles and proved to be very similar to that of the bovine heart enzyme, particularly in the high-Mr region. Further homologies in these and other species were explored by immunoblotting with antisera to the holoenzyme and monospecific antisera raised against iron-sulphur-protein subunits of the enzyme.

The fluorescence signal of flavoproteins of rat liver mitochondria was investigated to determine the respective contributions of the various flavoenzymes. About 50% of the overall signal were found to be NAD-linked and caused by alpha-lipoamide dehydrogenase flavin (Em7.4 = -283 mV). Roughly 25% were due to a flavoprotein reducible in a non-NAD-linked reaction. This fluorescent flavoenzyme (Em7.4 = -52 mV) has been tentatively identified as a flavoprotein of the fatty-acid-oxidizing system, most probably the electron transfer flavoprotein. The remaining 25% of the signal are accounted for by flavoenzymes which are reducible by dithionite only. These flavoenzymes were not involved in the flavoprotein fluorescence alterations accompanying changes in electron flow through the respiratory chain. Contributions of other mitochondrial flavoproteins such as succinate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, proline dehydrogenase, and choline oxidase, to the overall flavin fluorescence signal of isolated rat liver mitochondria can be neglected.

1. Increased specific activities of cytochrome c oxidase, catalase, succinate dehydrogenase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and malate dehydrogenase were observed during glucose de-repression of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. 2. The cell-cycle of this organism was analysed by three different methods: (a) harvesting of cells at intervals from a synchronous culture, (b) separation of cells by rate-zonal centrifugation into different size classes and (c) separation of cells by isopycnic-zonal centrifugation into different density classes. 3. Measurement of enzyme activities during the cell-cycle showed that all the enzymes assayed [cytochrome c oxidase, catalase, acid p-nitrophenylphosphatase, NADH-dehydrogenase, NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP) and fumarate hydratase] show periodic expression as ;peaks'. 4. Cytochrome c oxidase shows a single maximum at 0.67 of a cycle, whereas succinate dehydrogenase exhibits two maxima separated by 0.5 of a cell-cycle. 5. All other enzymes assayed showed two distinct maxima per cell-cycle; for catalase, malate dehydrogenase and NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase there is the possibility of multiple fluctuations. 6. The single maximum of cytochrome c oxidase appears at a similar time in the cycle to one maximum of each of the other enzymes studied, except for NADH dehydrogenase. 7. These results are discussed with reference to previous observations on the expression of enzyme activities during the cell-cycle of yeasts.

This paper describes experiments conducted with membranous and soluble fractions obtained from Escherichia coli that had been grown on succinate, malate, or enriched glucose media. Oxidase and dehydrogenase activities were studied with the following substrates: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced form (NADH), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced form (NADPH), succinate, malate, isocitrate, glutamate, pyruvate, and alpha-ketoglutarate. Respiration was virtually insensitive to poisons that are commonly used to inhibit mitochondrial systems, namely, rotenone, antimycin, and azide. Succinate dehydrogenase and NADH, NADPH, and succinate oxidases were primarily membrane-bound whereas malate, isocitrate, and NADH dehydrogenases were predominantly soluble. It was observed that E. coli malate dehydrogenase could be assayed with the dye 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol, but that porcine malate dehydrogenase activity could not be assayed, even in the presence of E. coli extracts. The characteristics of E. coli NADH dehydrogenase were shown to be markedly different from those of a mammalian enzyme. The enzyme activities for oxidation of Krebs cycle intermediates (malate, succinate, isocitrate) did not appear to be under coordinate genetic control.

The changes occurring in the respiratory enzymes of anaerobically grown Escherichia coli strain B and E. coli 15 T(-)A(-)U(-)bar during exposure to oxygen were studied. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase activity reached its peak soon after O(2) exposure; cytochrome content and succinate oxidase activity increased more slowly, and these increases paralleled each other. The activities of isocitrate and malate dehydrogenases also increased, but the increase was less than that of the succinate and NADH oxidases; exposure to O(2) had no effect on the succinate and NADH dehydrogenase activities. On the other hand, the glycolytic activity decreased slowly after O(2) exposure. The incorporation of (32)P into acid-soluble organic phosphate esters paralleled the respiratory rate during the first 60 min after O(2) exposure, but continued to increase after the respiration reached a plateau. The sensitivity of (32)P incorporation to the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone also increased with time. The observed relationship between the development of the respiratory chain and the energy-conserving mechanism during O(2) exposure is discussed. Synthesis of the respiratory enzymes upon exposure to oxygen was dependent on concomitant protein and ribonucleic acid synthesis but not on deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis.

Chinese hamster subunits of mitochondrial respiratory Complex I (NADH-ubiquinone reductase), Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase), and Complex V (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase) were identified by immunoprecipitation and/or Western immunoblotting with antibody to the corresponding beef heart complexes. In the Chinese hamster lung cell mutant Gal 32, cytochrome c oxidase activity and its mitochondrially synthesized subunits (I, II, and III) are substantially decreased, but a cytoplasmically synthesized subunit (IV) is present at wild type levels. Complex I activity and five of its subunits are greatly diminished in Gal 32; several of the affected Complex I subunits correspond in mobility to mitochondrial translation products. In contrast, ATPase activity and its mitochondrially and cytoplasmically synthesized subunits are not greatly modified in the mutant. Our data suggest that the ATPase complex contains two rather than one mitochondrially synthesized peptides. The simultaneous correction of this pleiotropic phenotype in a spontaneous revertant of Gal 32 selected for its ability to grow on galactose suggests that the Gal 32 phenotype is a consequence of a single mutation. Therefore, it is concluded that Complex I may contain a previously unrecognized mitochondrially synthesized subunit(s), and that the lowered activity of both Complex I and cytochrome c oxidase in the mutant is due to decreased levels of their mitochondrially encoded subunits.

The inner and outer membranes of Pasteurella haemolytica were separated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation after plasmolysis of the cells in 20% sucrose and fragmentation in a French pressure cell. Assays of the two membrane fractions for 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate, succinate dehydrogenase, and NADH dehydrogenase and by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that each of the two membrane fractions was purified fivefold relative to the other. The outer membrane fraction contained two major proteins of molecular weights 30,000 and 42,000 (30K and 42K proteins), and the inner membrane fraction contained five proteins in approximately equal amounts. Intact bacteria as well as membrane fractions were extracted by procedures used by others for vaccine preparation to determine whether the outer membrane proteins were released. Extraction of the isolated membranes with 0.5 M potassium thiocyanate in 0.425 M NaCl with or without EDTA or with M sodium salicylate failed to release more than traces of the outer membrane proteins. Sodium dodecyl sulfate extracted essentially all of the proteins of both membranes, but the products of this procedure were of low solubility and presumably denatured. The inner membrane proteins were extracted with 0.5% Sarkosyl in 0.02 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5). The 42K outer membrane protein, most of the lipopolysaccharide, and some of the 30K outer membrane protein were extracted with 1% Zwittergent 3-16 in 0.25 M NaCl (pH 8), and the remaining 30K outer membrane protein was extracted with 1% deoxycholate in 0.25% NaCl (pH 8). Extraction of membranes in this sequence yielded partially purified membrane proteins that were soluble in dilute buffers.

Two N-1 type iron-sulfur clusters in NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex I, EC 1.6.5.3) were potentiometrically resolved: one was titrated as a component with a midpoint oxidation-reduction potential of -335 mV at pH 8.0, and with an n-value equal to one; the other as an extremely low midpoint potential component (Em 8.0 less than -500 mV). These two clusters are tentatively assigned to N-1b and N-1a, respectively. Cluster N-1b is completely reducible with NADH and has a spin concentration of about 0.8/FMN. Its EPR spectrum can be simulated as a single rhombic component with principal g values of 2.019, 1.937, and 1.922, which correspond to the Center 1 reported earlier by Orme-Johnson, N. R., Hansen, R. E., and Beinert, H. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 1922-1927. At extremely low oxidation-reduction potentials (less than -450 mV), additional EPR signals emerge with apparent g values of gz = 2.03, gy = 1.95, and gx = 1.91, which we assign to cluster N-1a. It is difficult, however, to simulate the detailed spectral line shape of this component as a single rhombic component, suggesting some degree of protein modification or interaction with a neighboring oxidation-reduction component. EPR spectra of soluble NADH dehydrogenase, containing 5-6 g atoms of non-heme iron and 5-6 mol of acid-labile sulfide/mol of FMN, were examined. Signals from at least two iron-sulfur species could be distinguished in the NADH-reduced form: one of an N-1b type spectrum; the other of a spectrum with g values of 2.045, 1.95, and 1.87 (total of about 0.5 spin equivalents/FMN). This is the first example of an N-1 type signal detected in isolated soluble NADH dehydrogenase.

A yeast strain (SP1) resistant to glucose repression modified simultaneously in the fermentative and in the oxidative pathways (loss of alcohol dehydrogenase I and over production of cytochrome a + a3, being insensitive to the glucose effect) developed a secondary mitochondrial hydrogen pathway. Oxidative phosphorylation was measured with exogenous NADH as substrate on mitochondria derived from repressed or derepressed cells. In this strain, antimycin A promotes a partial inhibition of NADH oxidation but a complete inhibition of phosphorylation. Amytal partially inhibits oxidation of NADH but not phosphorylation. KCN inhibits NADH oxidation in a biphasic way (first level 0.1 mM, second level 5 mM) but phosphorylation was fully inhibited by 0.1 mM KCN. This alternative but non-phosphorylating pathway is insensitive to salicyl hydroxamate. The external NADH dehydrogenase, like cytochrome c oxidase is partially insensitive to catabolite repression. These results provide evidence for the presence in strain SP1 of an alternative mitochondrial pathway, going from the external NADH dehydrogenase to an oxidase, different from the normal NADH dehydrogenase ubiquinone pathway.

From the cell mass and culture supernatant of Myxococcus xanthus strain Mx X12 an antibiotic activity against yeasts, molds and some Gram-positive bacteria could be extracted. It consisted of 4 biologically active compounds which were named myxalamid A, B, C and D. The main component, myxalamid B, was shown to block in beef heart submitochondrial particles the respiratory chain at the site of complex I, i.e. NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase. The myxalamids are new antibiotics.
