The kinetics of the NAD: artificial acceptor-oxidoreductase and delta mu H(+)-dependent succinate: NAD(+)-oxidoreductase reactions (reverse electron transfer) reactions catalyzed by the membrane-bound complex I was studied. The values of apparent rate constants of dissociation of complexes of the oxidized and reduced enzyme with NAD+ and NADH were determined. It was shown that the apparent affinity of NADH for the oxidized complex I is by nearly three orders of magnitude as high as that of the reduced one; a reverse correlation is found for NAD+. A kinetic scheme of complex I functioning in the forward and reverse reactions, according to which the free reduced enzyme is not an intermediate of the forward (NADH-oxidase) reaction and the free oxidized enzyme is not an intermediate of the reverse (NAD(+)-reductase) reaction, is proposed.

The loss of NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase activity, the activity of mitochondrial electron transfer complex I, underlies the loss of mitochondrial phosphorylating respiration with NAD-linked substrates observed during myocardial ischemia. In the present study the loss of complex I activity was found to be considerably more rapid during zero-flow ischemia in rat heart, a fast heart-rate heart, than in dog heart, a slow heart-rate heart. Moreover, the greater rapidity of the loss of complex I activity in the ischemic rat heart appeared to reflect the more rapid and more severe decreases in tissue pH and in tissue ATP characteristic of the zero-flow ischemic rat heart compared to zero-flow ischemic dog heart. In vitro enzyme inactivation studies on dog heart electron transfer complex I showed that the enzyme was approximately 40% inactivated after 1 minute by incubation at pH 6.0 in the absence of added ATP. The effect of low pH upon enzyme activity was mitigated considerably by the presence of one to two mM MgATP in the incubation mixtures. Moreover, a portion of the activity-sparing effect of MgATP was still observed in the presence of the uncoupler, FCCP. This latter observation suggests that part of the function-stabilizing effect of ATP was attributable to inner membrane energization and part appeared to have been due to a direct protective effect of ATP upon the complex.

The primary structures of the nuclear-encoded 51 kDa and 78 kDa subunits of the respiratory chain NADH: ubiquinone reductase (complex I) from Neurospora crassa mitochondria were determined by sequencing cDNA and the N-terminus of the mature proteins. Both subunits are related to the soluble NAD-reducing hydrogenase of the bacterium Alcaligenes eutrophus. Sequence comparison between these subunits, the corresponding subunits of the bovine complex I and the bacterial NAD-reducing hydrogenase further confirms the binding sites of NAD(H), FMN and three iron-sulfur clusters.

Genetic, biochemical and morphological investigations were conducted on skeletal muscle mitochondria from 6 cases of ocular myopathy: 4 cases with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) and 2 with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia. All of these 6 cases showed mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions in addition to normal sized DNA in the quadriceps muscle. The deletions ranging from 3 to 8 kbp were also mapped between nucleotides 5500 and 16000 by Southern blot. The deleted genes encoded for some subunits of complexes I, IV, V and 5-10 tRNAS. The boundaries of the deletions have been sequenced in three patients. Five patients had mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency in complex I as shown by the low oxygen consumption in isolated mitochondria using three NAD(+)-linked substrates. Mitochondria with an abnormal ultrastructure were also observed in 2 cases. A good relationship between the cytochrome c oxidase deficiency and the amount of deleted mtDNA was shown in our present investigations.

The control exerted in vivo by mitochondrial functions on the dynamics of glycolysis was investigated in starved yeast cells that were metabolizing glucose semianaerobically. Glycolytic oscillations were triggered after a pulse of glucose by inhibition of mitochondrial respiration with KCN, myxothiazol and antimycin A or in mutants in the bc1 complex (ubiquinol:cytochrome c reductase) that were largely deficient in respiratory capacity. Inhibition of the adenine nucleotide translocator by preincubation with bongkrekic acid also triggered a train of damped sinusoidal oscillations after glucose addition. The oscillations consisted of cycles of reduction and oxidation of the intracellular pool of nicotinamide nucleotides with periods of 45 s to 1 min and amplitudes of 0.8 mM or lower. Preincubation with the uncoupler carbonyl cyamide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) annihilated cyanide-induced oscillations of NAD(P)H. Evidence for de-energization of mitochondrial membranes in vivo was obtained by mitochondrial staining with dimethylaminostyryl-methyl-pyridiniumiodine (DASPMI) of starved cells. The low rates of NADH reoxidation shown by respiratory mutants and the FCCP-treated X2180 strain open up the possibility that mitochondrial dehydrogenases also control glycolytic oscillations. Low rates of cytosolic NADH reoxidation induced by pyrazole, an inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase, were also associated with the disappearance of glycolytic oscillations. From experimental evidence and model calculations we conclude that the modulation of the levels of cytosolic ATP by mitochondrial functions in turn modulates the approach of the dynamic behavior of glycolysis to an oscillatory domain. The mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase and the glycolytic steps associated with NADH reoxidation downstream from pyruvate appear to provide another control level of glycolysis dynamics in vivo.

Bovine mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone reductase (complex I), the first enzyme in the electron-transport chain, is a membrane-bound assembly of more than 30 different proteins, and the flavoprotein (FP) fraction, a water-soluble assembly of the 51-, 24-, and 10-kDa subunits, retains some of the catalytic properties of the enzyme. The 51-kDa subunit binds the substrate NAD(H) and probably contains both the cofactor, FMN, and also a tetranuclear iron-sulfur center, while a binuclear iron-sulfur center is located in the 24- or 10-kDa proteins. The 75-kDa subunit is the largest of the six proteins in the iron-sulfur protein (IP) fraction, and its sequence indicates that it too contains iron-sulfur clusters. Partial protein sequences have been determined at the N-terminus and at internal sites in the 51-kDa subunit, and the corresponding cDNA encoding a precursor of the protein has been isolated by using a novel strategy based on the polymerase chain reaction. The mature protein is 444 amino acids long. Its sequence, and those of the 24- and 75-kDa subunits, shows that mitochondrial complex I is related to a soluble NAD-reducing hydrogenase from the facultative chemolithotroph Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. This enzyme has four subunits, alpha, beta, gamma, and delta, and the alpha gamma dimer is an NADH oxidoreductase that contains FMN. The gamma-subunit is related to residues 1-240 of the 75-kDa subunit of complex I, and the alpha-subunit sequence is a fusion of homologues of the 24- and 51-kDa subunits, in the order N- to C-terminal. The most highly conserved regions are in the 51-kDa subunit and probably form parts of nucleotide binding sites for NAD(H) and FMN. Another conserved region surrounds the sequence motif CysXXCysXXCys, which is likely to provide three of the four ligands of a 4Fe-4S center, possibly that known as N-3. Characteristic ligands for a second 4Fe-4S center are conserved in the 75-kDa and gamma-subunits. This relationship with the bacterial enzyme implies that the 24- and 51-kDa subunits, together with part of the 75-kDa subunit, constitute a structural unit in mitochondrial complex I that is concerned with the first steps of electron transport.

The chloroplast genomes of Marchantia polymorpha, Nicotiana tabacum, and Oryza sativa contain open reading frames (ORFs or potential genes) encoding homologues of some of the subunits of mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I). Seven of these subunits (ND1-ND4, ND4L, ND5, and ND6) are products of the mitochondrial genome, and two others (the 49- and 30-kDa components of the iron-sulfur protein fraction) are nuclear gene products. These findings have been taken to indicate the presence in chloroplasts of an enzyme related to complex I, possibly an NAD(P)H:plastoquinone oxidoreductase, participating in chlororespiration. This view is reinforced by the present work in which we have shown that chloroplast genomes encode a homologue of the 23-kDa subunit, another nuclear-encoded component of bovine complex I. The 23-kDa subunit is in the hydrophobic protein fraction of the enzyme, the residuum after removal of the flavoprotein and iron-sulfur protein fractions. The sequence motif CysXXCysXXCysXXXCysPro, which provides ligands for tetranuclear iron-sulfur centers in ferredoxins, occurs twice in its polypeptide chain and is evidence of two associated 4Fe-4S clusters. This is the only iron-sulfur protein identified so far in the hydrophobic protein fraction of complex I, and so it is possible that one of these centers is that known as N-2, the donor of electrons to ubiquinone. The sequence of the 23-kDa subunit is closely related to potential proteins, which also contain the cysteine-rich sequence motifs, encoded in the frxB ORFs in chloroplast genomes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The NADH dehydrogenase complex isolated from Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of approximately 10 unlike polypeptides and contains noncovalently bound FMN, non-heme iron, and acid-labile sulfide [Yagi, T. (1986) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 250, 302-311]. The NADH-binding subunit (Mr = 50,000) of this enzyme complex was identified by direct photoaffinity labeling with [32P]NADH [Yagi, T., & Dinh, T.M. (1990) Biochemistry 29, 5515-5520]. Primers were synthesized on the basis of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of this polypeptide, and these primers were used to synthesize an oligonucleotide probe by the polymerase chain reaction. This probe was utilized to isolate the gene encoding the NADH-binding subunit from a genomic library of P. denitrificans. The nucleotide sequence of the gene and the deduced amino acid sequence of the entire NADH-binding subunit were determined. The NADH-binding subunit has 431 amino acid residues and a calculated molecular weight of 47,191. The encoded protein contains a putative NAD(H)-binding and an iron-sulfur cluster-binding consensus sequence. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Paracoccus NADH-binding subunit shows remarkable similarity to the alpha subunit of the NAD-linked hydrogenase of Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. When partial DNA sequencing of the regions surrounding the gene encoding the NADH-binding subunit was carried out, sequences homologous to the 24-, 49-, and 75-kDa polypeptides of bovine complex I were detected, suggesting that the structural genes of the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex constitute a gene cluster.

We report the electron transfer properties of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex of the respiratory chain (Complex I) in mitochondria of cells derived from LHON patients with two different mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The mutations occur in the mtDNA genes coding for the ND1 and ND4 subunits of Complex I. The ND1/3460 mutation exhibits 80% reduction in rotenone-sensitive and ubiquinone-dependent electron transfer activity, whereas the proximal NADH dehydrogenase activity of the Complex is unaffected. This is in accordance with the proposal that the ND1 subunit interacts with rotenone and ubiquinone. In contrast, the ND4/11778 mutation had no effect on electron transfer activity of the Complex in inner mitochondrial membrane preparations; also Km for NADH and NADH dehydrogenase activity were unaffected. However, in isolated mitochondria with the ND4 mutation, the rate of oxidation of NAD-linked substrates, but not of succinate, was significantly decreased. This suggests that the ND4 subunit might be involved in specific aggregation of NADH-dependent dehydrogenases and Complex I, which may result in fast ('solid state') electron transfer from the former to the latter.

For pyridine nucleotide-dependent flavoenzymes, binding both FAD and NAD(P)H on a single amino-acid chain, we have found a high degree of internal sequence similarity for certain regions of the FAD and NAD(P)H binding portions of the chain for any given protein. This was the case for a range of enzyme classes, including disulphide oxidoreductases (such as glutathione reductase, trypanothione reductase, lipoamide dehydrogenase, mercuric reductase), mono- and dioxygenases, nitrite reductase, alkyl hydroperoxidase and NADH dehydrogenase from E. coli. This provides strong support for gene duplication as the origin of at least part of the FAD and NAD(P)H recognising domains of such enzymes.
