1. At 21 degrees C incubation of NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase (Complex 1) with trypsin caused selective inhibition of nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase activity. The reduction of K3Fe(CN)6 by NADH or NADPH was unaffected, but a slow decrease in the rate of reduction of ubiquinone-1 by NADH was observed. 2. The pH-dependence of nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase activity differed in Complex I and trypsin-treated Complex I. The trypsin-labile activity had a pH optimum of approx. 6.5, whereas the trypsin-resistant activity had a pH optimum of approx. 5.5 or less. 3. The trypsinlabile transhydrogenase activity was specifically inhibited by butanedione or phenylglyoxal and was identified with the enzyme catalysing energy-linked transhydrogenase activity in submitochondrial particles. 4. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate revealed that trypsin caused degradation of a polypeptide of mol.wt 20500 in parallel with the loss of transhydrogenase activity. 5. At 30 degrees C and higher trypsin concentrations, the rate of reduction of K3Fe(CN)6 by NADH or NADPH slowly decreased. Increased lability of NADH-K3Fe(CN)6 reductase activity to trypsin was observed when the endogenous phospholipid of Complex I was depleted by detergent or phospholipase A treatment. 6. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis indicated that removal of phospholipid allowed much more extensive degradation of constituent polypeptides by trypsin. The subunits of the low-molecular-weight (type II) dehydrogenase (53000 and 26000 mol.wt.) were, however, relatively resistant to trypsin even in phospholipid-depleted preparations.

NADH:nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1) from Chlorella vulgaris has been purified 640-fold with an over-all yield of 26% by a combination of protamine sulfate fractionation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel chromatography, density gradient centrifugation, and DEAE-chromatography. The purified enzyme is stable for more than 2 months when stored at minus 20 degrees in phosphate buffer (pH 6.9) containing 40% (v/v) glycerol. After the initial steps of the purification, a constant ratio of NADH:nitrate reductase activity to NADH:cytochrome c reductase and reduced methyl viologen:nitrate reductase activities was observed. One band of protein was detected after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme. This band also gave a positive stain for heme, NADH dehydrogenase, and reduced methyl viologen:nitrate reductase. One band, corresponding to a molecular weight of 100, 000, was detected after sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme contains FAD, heme, and molybdenum in a 1:1:0.8 ratio. One "cyanide binding site" per molybdenum was found. No non-heme-iron or labile sulfide was detected. From a dry weight determination of the purified enzyme, a minimal molecular weight of 152, 000 per molecule of heme or FAD was calculated. An s20, w of 9.7 S for nitrate reductase was found by the use of sucrose density gradient centrifugation and a Stokes radius of 89 A was estimated by gel filtration techniques. From these values, and the assumption that the partial specific volume is 0.725 cc/g, a molecular weight of 356, 000 was estimated for the native enzyme. These data suggest that the native enzyme contains a minimum of 2 molecules each of FAD, heme, and molybdenum and is composed of at least three subunits.

Preparations of NADH-ubiquinone reductase from bovine heart mitochondria (Complex I) were shown to contain at least 16 polypeptides by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. High-molecular-weight soluble NADH dehydrogenase prepared from Triton X-100 extracts of submitochondrial particles [Baugh & King (1972) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 49, 1165-1173] was similar to Complex I in its polypeptide composition. 3. Solubilization of Complex I by phospholipase A treatment and subsequent sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation did not alter the polypeptide composition. 4. Lysophosphatidylcholine treatment of Complex I caused some selective solubilization of a polypeptide of mol.wt. 33000 previosuly postulated to be the transmembrane component of Complex I in the mitochondrial membrane [Ragan (1975) in Energy Transducing Membranes: Structure, Function and Reconstitution (Bennun, Bacila & Najjar, eds.), Junk, The Hague, in the press]. 5. Chaotropic resolution of Complex I caused solubilization of polypeptides of molecular weights 75000, 53000, 29000, 26000 and 15500 and traces of others in the 10000-20000-mol.wt.range. 6. The major components of the iron-protein fraction from chaotropic resolution had molecular weights of 75000, 53000 and 29000, whereas the flavoprotein contained polypeptides of molecular weights 53000 and 26000 in a 1:1 molar ratio. 7. Iodination of Complex I by lactoperoxidase indicated that the water-soluble polypeptides released by chaotropic resolution, in particular those of the flavoprotein fraction, were largely buried in the intact Complex. 8. The polypeptides of molecular weights 75000, 53000, 42000, 39000, 33000, 29000 and 26000 were present in 1:2:1:1:1:1:1 molar proportions. The two subunits of molecular weight 53000 are probably non-identical.

1. Of various phospholipids tested, lysolecithin was the most efficient in the solubilization of the components of beef heart submitochondrial particles. Lysolecithin solubilized selectively nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase and oligomycin-sensitive ATPase. Various cytochromes other than cytochrome c were only slightly solubilized. 2. The effect of various parameters, e.g. ionic strength, pH, time of centrifugation, and concentrations of lysolecithin and protein was investigated. Increasing times of centrifugation led to a partial sedimentation of NADH dehydrogenase, and a complete sedimentation of oligomycin-sensitive ATPase and cytochrome oxidase. 3. Further fractionation of the lysolecithin extract by centrifugation in the presence of low concentrations of cholate gave a complete separation of NADH dehydrogenase and transhydrogenase, indicating that these enzymes are not related functionally. 4. With the lysolecithin fractionation procedure a more than 10-fold purification of transhydrogenase was achieved. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the partially purified transhydrogenase in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate showed major increases in protein-stained bands corresponding to between 70 000 and 54 000 daltons. 5. A possible mechanism for the detergent action of lysolecithin involving a specific exchange of bound phospholipids for lysolecithin is discussed.

A carrier protein mediating alanine transport was purified from the membranes of the thermophilic bacterium PS3, by ion exchange chromatography in the presence of both Triton X-100 and urea. The alanine carrier was recovered in the nonadsorbed fraction from either DEAE- or CM-cellulose columns, suggesting that its isoelectric point was in the neutral pH region. The final preparation contained virtually no electron transfer components, ATPase, or NADH dehydrogenase. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the final preparation consisted of two major protein components with molecular weights of 36,000 and 9,400. Active transport of alanine after incorporation of the alanine carrier into reconstituted proteoliposomes was driven not only by an artificial membrane potential generated by potassium ion diffusion via valinomycin but also by mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase incorporated into the same liposomes and supplemented with both cytochrome c and ascorbic acid. The membrane-integrated portion (TFo) of the ATPase complex uncoupled alanine transport by conducting protons across the membrane.

Cytochrome c oxidase has been purified from rat liver mitochondria using affinity chromatography. The preparation contains 10.5 to 13.4 nmol of heme a + a3 per mg of protein and migrates as a single band during polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under nondissociating conditions. It has a heme a/a3 ratio of 1.12 and is free of cytochromes b, c, and c1 as well as the enzymes, NADH dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, coenzyme Q-cytochrome c reductase, and ATPase. The enzyme preparation consists of six polypeptides having apparent Mr of 66,000, 39,000, 23,000, 14,000, 12,500 and 10,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The peptide composition is similar to those found for cytochrome c oxidases from other systems. The enzymatic activity of the purified enzyme is completely inhibited by carbon monoxide or cyanide, partially inhibited by Triton X-100 and dramatically enhanced by Tween 80 or phospholipids.

Oxidation factor, a protein required for electron transfer from succinate to cytochrome c in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, has been purified from isolated succinate . cytochrome c reductase complex. Purification of the protein has been followed by a reconstitution assay in which restoration of ubiquinol . cytochrome c reductase activity is proportional to the amount of oxidation factor added back to depleted reductase complex. The purified protein is a homogeneous polypeptide on acrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate and migrates with an apparent Mr = 24,500. Purified oxidation factor restores succinate . cytochrome c reductase and ubiquinol . cytochrome c reductase activities to depleted reductase complex. It is not required for succinate dehydrogenase nor for succinate . ubiquinone reductase activities of the reconstituted reductase complex. Oxidation factor co-electrophoreses with the iron-sulfur protein polypeptide of ubiquinol . cytochrome c reductase complex. The purified protein contains 56 nmol of nonheme iron and 36 nmol of acid-labile sulfide/mg of protein and possesses an EPR spectrum with the characteristic "g = 1.90" signal identical to that of the iron-sulfur protein of the cytochrome b . c1 complex. In addition, the optimal conditions for extraction of oxidation factor, including reduction with hydrosulfite and treatment of the b . c1 complex with antimycin, are identical to those which facilitate extraction of the iron-sulfur protein from the b . c1 complex. These results indicate that oxidation factor is a reconstitutively active form of the iron-sulfur protein of the cytochrome b . c1 complex first discovered by Rieske and co-workers (Rieske, J.S., Maclennan, D.H., and Coleman, R. (1964) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 15, 338-344) and thus demonstrate that this iron-sulfur protein is required for electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome c in the mitochondrial respiratory chain.

1. Incubation of NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex I) with chymotrypsin caused loss of rotenone-sensitive ubiquinone-1 reduction and an increase in rotenone-insensitive ubiquinone reduction. 2. Within the same time-course, NADH-K(3)Fe(CN)(6) oxidoreductase activity was unaffected. 3. Mixing of chymotrypsin-treated Complex I with Complex III did not give rise to NADH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase activity. 4. Gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate revealed selective degradation of several constituent polypeptides by chymotrypsin. 5. With higher chymotrypsin concentrations and longer incubation times, a decrease in NADH-K(3)Fe(CN)(6) oxidoreductase was observed. The kinetics of this decrease correlated with solubilization of the low-molecular-weight type-II NADH dehydrogenase (subunit mol.wts. 53000 and 27000) and with degradation of a polypeptide of mol.wt. 30000. 6. Phospholipid-depleted Complex I was more rapidly degraded by chymotrypsin. Specifically, a subunit of mol.wt. 75000, resistant to chymotrypsin in untreated Complex I, was degraded in phospholipid-depleted Complex I. In addition, the 30000-mol.wt. polypeptide was also more rapidly digested, correlating with an increased rate of transformation to type II NADH dehydrogenase.

The site of Na+-dependent activation in the respiratory chain of the marine bacterium, Vibrio alginolyticus, was investigated. The respiratory chain system contained ubiquinones (Q), menaquinones (MK), cytochromes b(560), c(553), d(630), and o(560). The membrane-bound and partially purified NADH dehydrogenase was stimulated 2- to 3-fold by the addition of 0.2 M Na+ or K+ and no specific requirement for Na+ was observed in this reaction step. The cytochrome oxidase showed no requirement for monovalent cations. The respiratory activity (NADH oxidase) of the membrane was lost on removal of the quinones, and the reincorporation of authentic Q-10 or MK-4 restored the activity. The rate of MK-4 reduction by NADH (menaquinone reductase) as measured using MK-4 incorporated membrane was activated by Na+, but only slightly by K+. The apparent Ka for Na+ was 78 mM for both menaguinone reductase and NADH oxidase. The requirement for Na+ of menaquinone reductase was greatly reduced in the presence of 0.2 M K+. Ubiquinone reductase as measured by using Q-10 incorporated membrane was also activated more effectively by Na+ than by K+. These results strongly suggested that the site of Na+-dependent activation in the respiratory chain of marine V. alginolyticus was at the step of NADH; quinone oxidoreductase.

Purified preparations of Complex I (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) from bovine heart mitochondria may be resolved into 26 polypeptides by two-dimensional analysis combining isoelectric focusing and polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate. Similar analyses of the fragments obtained from chaotropic resolution of the enzyme show that each of these fragments contains a distinct and non-overlapping set of polypeptides. Evidence that the polypeptides seen in the intact enzyme are true constituents comes from analyses of immunoprecipitates obtained by allowing Complex I or solubilized submitochondrial particles to react with antisera directed against the whole enzyme and a subfragment of the enzyme.
