Two types of the NADH-quinone reductase were isolated from Thermus thermophilus HB-8 membranes, by use of the nonionic detergent, dodecyl beta-maltoside, and NAD-agarose affinity, DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, and Superose 6 column chromatography. One of these (NADH dehydrogenase 1) is a complex composed of 10 unlike polypeptides, and the other (NADH dehydrogenase 2) exhibits a single band (Mr 53,000) upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activity of the isolated NADH dehydrogenase 1 was about 14 times higher than that of the dodecyl beta-maltoside extract and partially rotenone sensitive. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activity of the isolated NADH dehydrogenase 2 was about 30-fold as high as that of the dodecyl beta-maltoside extract and rotenone insensitive. The purified NADH dehydrogenase 1 contained noncovalently bound FMN, non-heme iron, and acid-labile sulfide. The ratio of FMN to non-heme iron to acid-labile sulfide was 1:11-12:7-9. The high content of iron and labile sulfide is suggestive of the presence of several iron-sulfur clusters. The purified NADH dehydrogenase 2 contained noncovalently bound FAD and no non-heme iron or acid-labile sulfide. The activities of both NADH dehydrogenases were stable at temperatures of greater than or equal to 80 degrees C. The occurrence of two distinct types of NADH dehydrogenase as a common feature in the membranes of various aerobic bacteria is discussed.

Bovine heart mitochondrial NADH----ubiquinone reductase (complex I), contains two disulfide-linked subunits of 75 and 33 kDa as revealed by two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with beta-mercaptoethanol omitted from preparation of the sample for the first dimension. Two unidentified polypeptides (110-115 and 69 kDa) are also found in disulfide linkage with the two complex I subunits. The 110-115-kDa polypeptide appears to be pyridine dinucleotide transhydrogenase by several criteria including selective precipitation with an antibody raised to the purified transhydrogenase. The two disulfide-linked subunits were also found in a product cross-linked for 2 min with dithiobis (succinimidyl propionate) (DSP) along with five other complex I subunits of 53-57, 42, 24-27, 17-18, and 12.5-15.5 kDa (Gondal, J.A., and Anderson, W.M. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 5931-5935) indicating that these seven subunits lie within 11-12 A of each other at one or more points in space in the enzyme's interior. Cross-linking of complex I with DSP for 2 min in the presence of 1 microM rotenone yielded a cross-linked product consisting of the two natural disulfide-linked subunits and the 110-115- and 69-kDa polypeptides. This suggests that rotenone induces a conformational change in the enzyme that moves the seven DSP cross-linked subunits away from each other and outside the 11-12 A bridging distance of DSP. This alteration in conformation may be communicated to iron-sulfur center N-2 within the hydrophobic outer shell of the enzyme to prevent electron transfer to its natural electron acceptor, ubiquinone. A model of rotenone action based upon these observations is presented.

1. The mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3) of Candida utilis exhibited altered properties when the organism was grown under iron-limited conditions. No suitable acceptor was found for assay of this enzyme from iron-limited cells. 2. Mitochondrial membrane proteins from C. utilis were analysed by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Compared with glycerol-limited cells, iron limitation resulted in the loss of at least two polypeptides from the mitochondrial membrane. 3. Neither of the polypeptides affected by iron limitation was part of a cytochrome, although one of them was part of the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase. 4. Non-haem iron of mitochondrial membranes was released in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate, and electrophoresis in solutions of this detergent cannot be used directly to identify iron-sulphur proteins. Non-ionic detergents do not release non-haem iron but nor do they provide a satisfactory system for electrophoretic separation.

Spheroplast membranes (spheroplast envelopes) of strain 2091 of group B Neisseria meningitidis were prepared by a procedure that included lysozyme treatment of the cells and osmotic lysis of the resulting spheroplasts. Electron microscopy revealed that the membranes consisted of two unit layers, generally parallel to each other. The membrane preparation migrated as a single component in a 40 to 70% sucrose gradient and consisted of 62% protein, 28% lipid, 9% ribonucleic acid, small amounts of carbohydrate, hexosamine, and deoxyribonucleic acid. When 1 or 10 mug (dry weight) was injected intravenously into rabbits, a mild pyrogenic reaction was elicited. In immunodiffusion tests, immune rabbit serum prepared against spheroplast membranes produced three major precipitin lines, with the homologous antigen solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate, and a single line with untreated antigen. The immune serum also reacted with a cell wall antigen, and to a lesser extent with some of the cytoplasmic antigens. Succinate dehydrogenase and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase activities were found to be associated with the spheroplast membranes. NADH dehydrogenase also was associated with the membranes but was gradually released and recovered in other fractions. Glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase, glutamate, glucose-6-phosphate, and isocitrate dehydrogenase activities were not found in the membrane preparation. About one-third of these enzymatic activities were recovered in the supernatant fluid after the sedimentation of the spheroplasts and two-thirds were recovered in the cytoplasmic fraction. N-acetylneuraminic acid (NAN)-condensing enzyme and cytidine monophosphate-NAN synthesizing enzyme also were identified in this organism. These enzymes were not associated with the membranes and were recovered from extracts from whole cells, spheroplasts, or cells exposed to osmotic shock, as well as from spheroplast supernatant and shock fluids. It is concluded that the spheroplast membranes of the strain of meningococci used in these studies are typical of those recovered from gram-negative bacteria.

NADH dehydrogenase [EC 1.6.99.3] in membranes of Bacillus caldotenax was solubilized with sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate and purified 50-fold from membranes to 75-80% homogeneity, as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme was considered to be located on the electron transport chain and to be an FAD-containing protein. The molecular weight of the subunit was estimated to be 44,000. The enzyme (or the enzyme bound to the B. caldotenax membrane lipids) follows a ping-pong mechanism. The enzyme can oxidize NADH, but not NADPH, with 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol, ferricyanide, menadione, and cytochrome c as electron acceptors. Membrane lipids or Triton X-100 stimulated the enzyme activity, except that with menadione. Lipids decreased the apparent affinity of electron acceptors and NADH to the enzyme, and increased the maximum velocity, except when menadione was used as the electron acceptor. Lipids partially protected the enzyme from thermal inactivation. The enzyme exhibited a continuous Arrhenius plot, while the lipids- or membrane-bound enzyme exhibited a discontinuous plot.

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.

A purified, active succinate-ubiquinone reductase was prepared from succinate-cytochrome c reductase without damage to ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase by 1.1% Triton X-100 solubilization at pH 8.0, and calcium phosphate column chromatography in 50 mM Tris-succinate buffer, pH 8.0, containing 30 mM potassium phosphate. Succinate-ubiquinone reductase thus obtained contains ubiquinone and catalyzes thenoyltrifluoroacetone-sensitive oxidation of succinate by 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol in the absence of exogenous mediator. Addition of ubiquinone enhanced the activity about 50%. Analytical sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the enzyme contains four polypeptides. The high molecular weight polypeptide contaminants usually observed in the Complex II preparation obtained by the reported method were absent. The active succinate-ubiquinone reductase can reconstitute with the cytochrome b-c1III complex, or Complex III to form succinate-cytochrome c reductase in the absence of exogenous ubiquinone or with the resolved ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase in the presence of ubiquinone and phospholipids. Under the proper conditions, all the original succinate-cytochrome c reductase was obtained, indicating that the resolution caused no damage to the protein, despite the removal of phospholipids and ubiquinone from the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase region.

The low molecular weight NADH dehydrogenase which can be solubilized from the mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex with chaotropic agents consists of three subunits in equimolar ratio [Galante, Y. M., & Hatefi, Y. (1979) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 192, 559]. The largest subunit (subunit I) can be completely separated from the other two (subunits II + III) by treatment with sodium trichloroacetate and ammonium sulfate fractionation. Both the subunit I and subunit II + III fractions contain iron and acid-labile sulfur. From visible and EPR spectroscopy and the iron and acid-labile sulfide content, we propose that the subunit II + III fraction contains a binuclear cluster. The cluster structure present in subunit I is as yet unclear. On separation of the subunits of NADH dehydrogenase, the FMN is lost.

The respiratory NADH dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli has been further amplified in vivo by genetic methods. The enzyme, a single polypeptide of Mr 47 200 of known amino acid sequence [Young, I. G., Rogers, B. L., Campbell, H. D., Jaworowski, A., & Shaw, D. C. (1981) Eur. J. Biochem. 116, 165-170], constitutes 10-15% of the total protein in the amplified membranes. In situ in the membrane, the enzyme contains 1 mol of FAD/mol of subunit and has a specific NADH:ubiquinone-1 oxidoreductase activity of approximately 1100-1200 units mg-1 at 30 degrees C, pH 7.5. The purified enzyme contains phospholipid, which remains closely associated with it during gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300 in the presence of 0.1% (w/v) cholate at low ionic strength. Under these conditions the enzyme is extensively aggregated (apparent Mr greater than 10(6]. This procedure yielded enzyme with a specific activity of 980 units mg-1, similar to the value observed in the membrane. This preparation contained less than 0.1 mol of Fe/mol of enzyme, confirming that Fe is not involved in reduction of ubiquinone 1 catalyzed by the enzyme. Neutron activation analysis of purified enzyme has demonstrated the absence of 35 trace elements including Se, Zn, Mn, Co, W, Cu, and Fe. The enzyme polypeptide, prepared completely free of phospholipid, FAD, and ubiquinone by gel filtration in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, has been reactivated. The results show that the only components necessary for catalysis of ubiquinone-1 reduction by NADH in this system are the enzyme polypeptide, FAD, and phospholipid.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

N-Acetylneuraminate lyase [N-acetylneuraminic acid aldolase EC 4.1.3.3] from Escherichia coli was purified by protamine sulfate treatment, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, column chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 44, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme preparation was homogeneous on analytical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and was free from contaminating enzymes including NADH oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase. The enzyme catalyzed the cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid to N-acetylmannosamine and pyruvate in a reversible reaction. Both cleavage and synthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid had the same pH optimum around 7.7. The enzyme was stable between pH 6.0 to 9.0, and was thermostable up to 60 degrees C. The thermal stability increased up to 75 degrees C in the presence of pyruvate. No metal ion was required for the enzyme activity, but heavy metal ions such as Ag+ and Hg2+ were potent inhibitors. Oxidizing agents such as N-bromosuccinimide, iodine, and hydrogen peroxide, and SH-inhibitors such as p-chloromercuribenzoic acid and mercuric chloride were also potent inhibitors. The Km values for N-acetylneuraminic acid and N-glycolylneuraminic acid were 3.6 mM and 4.3 mM, respectively. Pyruvate inhibited the cleavage reaction competitively; Ki was calculated to be 1.0 mM. In the condensation reaction, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, glucosamine, and galactosamine could not replace N-acetylmannosamine as substrate, and phosphoenolpyruvate, lactate, beta-hydroxypyruvate, and other pyruvate derivatives could not replace pyruvate as substrate. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was estimated to be 98,000 by gel filtration methods. After denaturation in sodium dodecyl sulfate or in 6 M guanidine-HCl, the molecular weight was reduced to 33,000, indicating the existence of 3 identical subunits. The enzyme could be used for the enzymatic determination of sialic acid; reaction conditions were devised for determining the bound form of sialic acid by coupling neuraminidase from Arthrobacter ureafaciens, lactate dehydrogenase, and NADH.
