The role of some serine/threonine kinases in the regulation of mitochondrial physiology is now well established, but little is known about mitochondrial tyrosine kinases. We showed that tyrosine phosphorylation of rat brain mitochondrial proteins was increased by in vitro addition of ATP and H2O2, and also during in situ ATP production at state 3, and maximal reactive oxygen species production. The Src kinase inhibitor PP2 decreased tyrosine phosphorylation and respiratory rates at state 3. We found that the 39-kDa subunit of complex I was tyrosine phosphorylated, and we identified putative tyrosine-phosphorylated subunits for the other complexes. We also have strong evidence that the FoF1-ATP synthase alpha chain is probably tyrosine-phosphorylated, but demonstrated that the beta chain is not. The tyrosine phosphatase PTP 1B was found in brain but not in muscle, heart or liver mitochondria. Our results suggest that tyrosine kinases and phosphatases are involved in the regulation of oxidative phosphorylation.

Mitochondrial superoxide (O(2)(.)) production is an important mediator of oxidative cellular injury. While NADH dehydrogenase (NDH) is a critical site of this O(2)(.) production; its mechanism of O(2)(.) generation is not known. Therefore, the catalytic function of NDH in the mediation of O(2)(.) generation was investigated by EPR spin-trapping. In the presence of NADH, O(2)(.) generation from NDH was observed and was inhibited by diphenyleneiodinium chloride (DPI), indicating involvement of the FMN-binding site of NDH. Addition of FMN increased O(2)(.) production. Destruction of the cysteine ligands of iron-sulfur clusters decreased O(2)(.) generation, suggesting a secondary role of this site. This inhibitory effect was reversed by addition of FMN. However, FMN addition could not reverse the inhibition of NDH by either DPI or heat denaturation, demonstrating involvement of both FMN and its FMN-binding protein moiety in the catalysis of O(2)(.) generation. O(2)(.) production by NDH also induced self-inactivation. Immunospin-trapping with anti-DMPO antibody and subsequent mass spectrometry was used to define the sites of oxidative damage of NDH. A DMPO adduct was detected on the 51-kDa subunit and was O(2)(.)-dependent. Alkylation of the cysteine residues of NDH significantly inhibited NDH-DMPO spin adduct formation, indicating involvement of protein thiyl radicals. LC/MS/MS analysis of a tryptic digest of the 51-kDa polypeptide revealed that cysteine (Cys(206)) and tyrosine (Tyr(177)) were specific sites of NDH-derived protein radical formation. Thus, two domains of the 51-kDa subunit, Gly(200)-Ala-Gly-Ala-Tyr-Ile-Cys(206)-Gly-Glu-Glu-Thr-Ala-Leu-Ile-Glu-Ser-Ile-Glu-Gly-Lys(219) and Ala(176)-Tyr(177)-Glu-Ala-Gly-Leu-Ile-Gly-Lys(184), were demonstrated to be susceptible to oxidative attack, and their oxidative modification results in decreased electron transfer activity.

The Na(+)-pumping NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase has six polypeptide subunits (NqrA-F) and a number of redox cofactors, including a noncovalently bound FAD and a 2Fe-2S center in subunit F, covalently bound FMNs in subunits B and C, and a noncovalently bound riboflavin in an undisclosed location. The FMN cofactors in subunits B and C are bound to threonine residues by phosphoester linkages. A neutral flavin-semiquinone radical is observed in the oxidized enzyme, whereas an anionic flavin-semiquinone has been reported in the reduced enzyme. For this work, we have altered the binding ligands of the FMNs in subunits B and C by replacing the threonine ligands with other amino acids, and we studied the resulting mutants by EPR and electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy. We conclude that the sodium-translocating NADH:quinone oxidoreductase forms three spectroscopically distinct flavin radicals as follows: 1) a neutral radical in the oxidized enzyme, which is observed in all of the mutants and most likely arises from the riboflavin; 2) an anionic radical observed in the fully reduced enzyme, which is present in wild type, and the NqrC-T225Y mutant but not the NqrB-T236Y mutant; 3) a second anionic radical, seen primarily under weakly reducing conditions, which is present in wild type, and the NqrB-T236Y mutant but not the NqrC-T225Y mutant. Thus, we can tentatively assign the first anionic radical to the FMN in subunit B and the second to the FMN in subunit C. The second anionic radical has not been reported previously. In electron nuclear double resonance spectra, it exhibits a larger line width and larger 8alpha-methyl proton splittings, compared with the first anionic radical.

Defects in NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I), the largest complex of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, account for most cases of respiratory chain deficiency in human. Complex I contains at least 45 subunits, 7 of which are encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Here we report a novel 10197G>A mutation of the ND3 gene in three unrelated families with Leigh syndrome (LS) or dystonia. Variable degrees of heteroplasmy were found in all tissues tested and a high percentage of mutant mtDNA was observed in muscle. The 10197G>A mutation modifies a hydrophobic alanine residue into a hydrophilic threonine (A47T) in a highly conserved domain of ND3 subunit. Furthermore, this defect could be transferred along with the mutant mtDNAs to rho degrees lymphoblastoid cells in cybrid experiments. However, nuclear modifier genes may also play a role in the phenotypic expression and severity of the 10197G>A mutation. The association of the 10197G>A ND3 mutation with an isolated biochemical defect involving complex I and the discovery of the 10197G>A mutation with a similar phenotype in three unrelated families establish its pathogenicity and demonstrate that the amino acid position A47 is important for the function of complex I. These results show that the 10197G>A mutation in the mitochondrial ND3 gene should be considered as a common mtDNA mutation responsible for LS and dystonia.

The subunits of complex I encoded by the mammalian nuclear genes NDUFS4 (AQDQ protein) and NDUFB11 (ESSS protein) contain serine/threonine consensus phosphorylation sequences (CPS) in their presequence, the first also in the C-terminus. We have studied the impact of PKA mediated phosphorylation on the mitochondrial import of in vitro and in vivo synthesized NDUFS4 protein. The intramitochondrial accumulation of the mature form of in vitro synthesized NDUFS4 protein, but not that of ESSS protein, was promoted by PKA and depressed by alkaline phosphatase (AP). In HeLa cells, control or transfected with the NDUFS4 cDNA construct, the mitochondrial level of mature NDUFS4 protein was promoted by 8-Br-cAMP and depressed by H89. Ser173Ala mutagenesis in the C-terminus CPS abolished the appearance in mitochondria of the mature form of NDUFS4 protein. The promoting effect of PKA on the mitochondrial accumulation of mature NDUFS4 protein appears to be due to inhibition of its retrograde diffusion into the cytosol.

In the brain, ischemic preconditioning (IPC) diminishes mitochondrial dysfunction after ischemia and confers neuroprotection. Activation of epsilon protein kinase C (epsilonPKC) has been proposed to be a key neuroprotective pathway during IPC. We tested the hypothesis that IPC increases the levels of epsilonPKC in synaptosomes from rat hippocampus, resulting in improved synaptic mitochondrial respiration. Preconditioning significantly increased the level of hippocampal synaptosomal epsilonPKC to 152% of sham-operated animals at 2 d of reperfusion, the time of peak neuroprotection. We tested the effect of epsilonPKC activation on hippocampal synaptic mitochondrial respiration 2 d after preconditioning. Treatment with the specific epsilonPKC activating peptide, tat-psiepsilonRACK (tat-psiepsilon-receptor for activated C kinase), increased the rate of oxygen consumption in the presence of substrates for complexes I, II, and IV to 157, 153, and 131% of control (tat peptide alone). In parallel, we found that epsilonPKC activation in synaptosomes from preconditioned animals resulted in altered levels of phosphorylated mitochondrial respiratory chain proteins: increased serine and tyrosine phosphorylation of 18 kDa subunit of complex I, decreased serine phosphorylation of FeS protein in complex III, increased threonine phosphorylation of COX IV (cytochrome oxidase IV), increased mitochondrial membrane potential, and decreased H2O2 production. In brief, ischemic preconditioning promoted significant increases in the level of synaptosomal epsilonPKC. Activation of epsilonPKC increased synaptosomal mitochondrial respiration and phosphorylation of mitochondrial respiratory chain proteins. We propose that, at 48 h of reperfusion after ischemic preconditioning, epsilonPKC is poised at synaptic mitochondria to respond to ischemia either by direct phosphorylation or activation of the epsilonPKC signaling pathway.

Expression of the gdh2 gene encoding the alpha-subunit of mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase depends on redox state of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Treatment of Arabidopsis thaliana cell suspension with antimycin A, a respiratory chain complex III inhibitor, resulted in an increase in gdh2 transcripts within 2 h. Inhibition of complex I by rotenone did not influence the transcript level, but treatment with potassium cyanide, a complex IV inhibitor, also increased the transcript content. Thus, gdh2 gene expression obviously responds to changes in the respiratory chain segment localized between complexes I and III. Lack of activation of gene expression after treatment of a cell suspension with hydrogen peroxide and the prooxidant paraquat and results of experiments with antioxidants suggest that gdh2 gene expression is not associated with increased content of reactive oxygen species generated during inhibition of the electron transport chain. Protein phosphorylation by serine/threonine protein kinases is the essential step required for signal transduction into nucleus resulting in the induction of gdh2 expression.

The NDUFS4 subunit of complex I of the mammalian respiratory chain has a fully conserved carboxy-terminus with a canonical RVSTK phosphorylation site. Immunochemical analysis with specific antibodies shows that the serine in this site of the protein is natively present in complex I in both the phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated state. Two-dimensional IEF/SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, (32)P labelling and immunodetection show that "in vitro" PKA phosphorylates the serine in the C-terminus of the NDUFS4 subunit in isolated bovine complex I. (32)P labelling and TLC phosphoaminoacid mapping show that PKA phosphorylates serine and threonine residues in the purified heterologous human NDUFS4 protein.

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a major contributor in heart failure (HF). We investigated whether the decrease in respirasome organization reported by us previously in cardiac mitochondria in HF is due to changes in the phospholipids of the mitochondrial inner membrane or modifications of the subunits of the electron transport chain (ETC) complexes. The contents of the main phospholipid species, including cardiolipin, as well as the molecular species of cardiolipin were unchanged in cardiac mitochondria in HF. Oxidized cardiolipin molecular species were not observed. In heart mitochondria isolated from HF, complex IV not incorporated into respirasomes exhibits increased threonine phosphorylation. Since HF is associated with increased adrenergic drive to cardiomyocytes, this increased protein phosphorylation might be explained by the involvement of cAMP-activated protein kinase. Does the preservation of cAMP-induced phosphorylation changes of mitochondrial proteins or the addition of exogenous cAMP have similar effects on oxidative phosphorylation? The usage of phosphatase inhibitors revealed a specific decrease in complex I-supported respiration with glutamate. In saponin-permeabilized cardiac fibers, pre-incubation with cAMP decreases oxidative phosphorylation due to a defect localized at complex IV of the ETC inter alia. We propose that phosphorylation of specific complex IV subunits decreases oxidative phosphorylation either by limiting the incorporation of complex IV in supercomplexes or by decreasing supercomplex stability.

Though left ventricular hypertrabeculation/noncompaction (LVNC) is frequently associated with mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations, it has not been reported in association with the transition m.3308T>C of the NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (ND1) gene. The index patient is a 16-year-old Tunisian female who was investigated for a systolic murmur and cardiomegaly. Echocardiography revealed tricuspid insufficiency, moderate left ventricular dilatation, Ebstein's anomaly, a superior caval vein draining into the coronary sinus and, surprisingly, LVNC of the apex and the lateral wall. LVNC was absent in all other cardiologically investigated siblings. RNA and mtDNA sequence analysis revealed the known homoplasmic mutation m.3308T>C resulting in the replacement of the first amino acid methionine by threonine in the ND1 subunit of respiratory chain complex I. The m.3308T>C mutation was also present in the patient's mother and several other family members but absent in 350 controls. Additionally, the index patient carried the polymorphisms m.8248A>G in the COX2 gene and m.8468C>T in the ATP8 gene. It is concluded that LVNC may be associated with the known homoplasmic m.3308T>C mutation in the ND1 gene. However, the pathogenetic role of this mutation in the development of LVNC remains elusive.
