X-band electron-paramagnetic-resonance spectroscopy at 4.2--77K combined with measurements of oxidation-reduction potential was used to identify iron--sulphur centres in Arum maculatum (cuckoo-pint) mitochondria. In the oxidized state a signal with a derivative maximum at g = 2.02 was assigned to succinate dehydrogenase centre S-3. Unreduced particles showed additional signals at g = 2.04 and 1.98 (at 9.2 GHz), which may be due to a spin-spin interaction. In the reduced state a prominent signal at g = 1.93 and 2.02 was resolved into at least three components that could be assigned to centres S-1 and S-2 of succinate dehydrogenase (midpoint potentials -7 and -240 mV respectively at pH 7.2) and a small amount of centre N-1b (e'o= -240 mV) of NADH-ubiquinone reductase. In addition, changes in line shape around -10 mV indicated the presence of a fourth component in this signal. The latter was more readily reduced by NADH than by succinate, suggesting that it might be associated with the external NADH dehydrogenase. The iron-sulphur centres of NADH-ubiquinone reductase were present in an unusually low concentration, indicating that the alternative, non-phosphorylating, NADH dehydrogenase containing a low number of iron-sulphur centres may be responsible for most of the high rate of oxidation of NADH.

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 rate of irreversible loss of mitochondrial phosphorylating respiratory function with NAD-linked substrates during zero flow myocardial autolysis at 37 degrees C was gradual and relatively linear with time, progressing at about 1% of the control activity per minute. State 3 respiratory rates and initial rates of inner membrane potential development dropped off in close parallel with one another as well as with NADH-coenzyme Q (CoQ) reductase activity, suggesting that oxygen uptake as well as membrane potential development were rate limited by the increasing impairment of electron flow through complex I. Although the initial rate of membrane potential development dropped off gradually, the time course for the loss of the ability to ultimately develop and hold a full potential was slower still, there being only a moderate impairment of this ability at 80 min of autolysis. This sustained ability to develop and hold a membrane potential after more than 1 h of autolysis suggested that inner membrane leakiness contributed little or not at all to the functional impairment observed. The irreversible loss of mitochondrial inner membrane competence emerged in these studies as a relatively late development in the sequence of cellular alterations which characterize the myocardial ischemic process.

The effect of acute hypoxia on adenine nucleotides, glutamate, aspartate, alanine and respiration of heart mitochondria was studied in rats. The losses of intramitochondrial adenine nucleotides (ATP+ADP+AMP) during hypoxia were related to depression of state 3 respiration supported by glutamate and malate, as well as decrease in uncoupled respiration. Hypoxia had less prominent effect on succinate-dependent state 3 respiration. Non-phosphorylating (state 4) respiratory rates and ADP/O ratios were slightly affected by oxygen deprivation. Glutamate fall in tissue and mitochondria of hypoxic hearts was concomitant with significant increase in tissue alanine and mitochondrial aspartate. The losses of intramitochondrial ATP and respiratory activity with NAD-dependent substrates during hypoxia were related to a decrease in mitochondrial glutamate. The results suggest that hypoxia-induced impairment of complex I of respiratory chain and a loss of glutamate from the matrix may limit energy-producing capacity of heart mitochondria.

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.

The reduction and the potential autoxidation of quinoid compounds may be viewed as taking place in three cell compartments. In microsomal fractions (endoplasmic reticulum) one-electron reduction by NAPDH-cytochrome P450 reductase leads to the formation of semiquinones which rapidly react with oxygen to form the parent quinone and superoxide anions. The formation of superoxide through this futile cycle leads ultimately to other damaging species (H2O2 and .OH). A similar futile cycle in mitochondria involves NADH dehydrogenase. In this instance, mitochondria initiation of such a cycle with quinones results not only in the formation of toxic radical species but also in the diversion of electrons from phosphorylating pathways. The consequent diminution of cellular ATP may have as important a consequence with respect to the toxicity of quinones as the generation of radicals. Finally, cytosolic DT diaphorase, which carries out a two-electron reduction of quinones to more stable hydroquinones, may compete with the one-electron systems and participate in the detoxification of quinones by supplying hydroquinones for conjugation reactions. The extent of quinone-induced damage may thus vary from cell to cell depending on the integration of these pathways.

Left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion in anesthetized pigs produced a stable transmural ischemia characterized by a rapid and then sustained loss of blood flow and mechanical function. After 2 h of occlusion, mitochondria from the ischemic area exhibited a 36 +/- 6% drop in state 3 respiratory activity (QO2) supported by the NAD-linked substrates, glutamate plus malate, but only a 5 +/- 3% decrease in QO2 with succinate plus rotenone. The activity of electron transfer complex I (NADH-CoQ reductase) decreased commensurately by 33 +/- 4% with the decrease in QO2 with NAD-linked substrates. Consistent with the nearly unchanged QO2 with succinate plus rotenone, the activities of electron transfer complexes III and IV decreased only slightly by 9 +/- 5% and 9 +/- 4%, respectively. Mitochondrial ATPase (complex V) activity decreased by 48 +/- 2% with little change in its oligomycin sensitivity. A 48% drop in ATPase activity was shown, by means of oligomycin titrations, to correspond to a 32% decrease in NAD-linked substrate supported QO2. The decreases observed in NADH-CoQ reductase and ATPase activities each account nearly quantitatively for the impaired mitochondrial phosphorylating respiration observed during sustained myocardial ischemia. These results suggest that mitochondrial inner enzyme complexes I and V are important sites of cellular injury in myocardial ischemia.

Erythrocyte ghost NADH dehydrogenase is inhibited in a competitive fashion by ATP and ADP whereas other nucleoside di- and triphosphates, cyclic nucleosides, as well as non-phosphorylating ATP analogs are relatively ineffective. In addition, this enzyme, measured with ferricyanide as electron acceptor, is inhibited by uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation (proton-conducting reagents), the inhibition being competitive in character (i.e., the uncouplers were without influence upon maximum velocity). The effectiveness of the uncouplers was in the order of their hydrophobic character with the presence of the alkyl side chain rendering nonyl-dinitrophenol much more active than 2,6-dinitrophenol itself. Hydrophobic compounds that are not protonophores (e.g., eosin, proflavin or valinomycin) were not inhibitory. Whereas adenine nucleotides probably inhibit NADH oxidation competitively through structural similarity with the substrate, it appears unlikely that uncouplers compete at the NADH site directly. Rather, the apparently-competitive inhibition in the latter case may reflect competition for proton transfer to an acceptor residing in a hydrophobic region of the enzyme complex.

Physiologically, a postprandial glucose rise induces metabolic signal sequences that use several steps in common in both the pancreas and peripheral tissues but result in different events due to specialized tissue functions. Glucose transport performed by tissue-specific glucose transporters is, in general, not rate limiting. The next step is phosphorylation of glucose by cell-specific hexokinases. In the beta-cell, glucokinase (or hexokinase IV) is activated upon binding to a pore protein in the outer mitochondrial membrane at contact sites between outer and inner membranes. The same mechanism applies for hexokinase II in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. The activation of hexokinases depends on a contact site-specific structure of the pore, which is voltage-dependent and influenced by the electric potential of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Mitochondria lacking a membrane potential because of defects in the respiratory chain would thus not be able to increase the glucose-phosphorylating enzyme activity over basal state. Binding and activation of hexokinases to mitochondrial contact sites lead to an acceleration of the formation of both ADP and glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P). ADP directly enters the mitochondrion and stimulates mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. G-6-P is an important intermediate of energy metabolism at the switch position between glycolysis, glycogen synthesis, and the pentose-phosphate shunt. Initiated by blood glucose elevation, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is accelerated in a concerted action coupling glycolysis to mitochondrial metabolism at three different points: first, through NADH transfer to the respiratory chain complex I via the malate/aspartate shuttle; second, by providing FADH2 to complex II through the glycerol-phosphate/dihydroxy-acetone-phosphate cycle; and third, by the action of hexo(gluco)kinases providing ADP for complex V, the ATP synthetase. As cytosolic and mitochondrial isozymes of creatine kinase (CK) are observed in insulinoma cells, the phosphocreatine (CrP) shuttle, working in brain and muscle, may also be involved in signaling glucose-induced insulin secretion in beta-cells. An interplay between the plasma membrane-bound CK and the mitochondrial CK could provide a mechanism to increase ATP locally at the KATP channels, coordinated to the activity of mitochondrial CrP production. Closure of the KATP channels by ATP would lead to an increase of cytosolic and, even more, mitochondrial calcium and finally to insulin secretion. Thus in beta-cells, glucose, via bound glucokinase, stimulates mitochondrial CrP synthesis. The same signaling sequence is used in the opposite direction in muscle during exercise when high ATP turnover increases the creatine level that stimulates mitochondrial ATP synthesis and glucose phosphorylation via hexokinase. Furthermore, this cytosolic/mitochondrial cross-talk is also involved in activation of muscle glycogen synthesis by glucose. The activity of mitochondrially bound hexokinase provides G-6-P and stimulates UTP production through mitochondrial nucleoside diphosphate kinase. Pathophysiologically, there are at least two genetically different forms of diabetes linked to energy metabolism: the first example is one form of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY2), an autosomal dominant disorder caused by point mutations of the glucokinase gene; the second example is several forms of mitochondrial diabetes caused by point and length mutations of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) that encodes several subunits of the respiratory chain complexes. Because the mtDNA is vulnerable and accumulates point and length mutations during aging, it is likely to contribute to the manifestation of some forms of NIDDM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED)

There are multiple routes of NAD(P)H oxidation associated with the inner membrane of plant mitochondria. These are the phosphorylating NADH dehydrogenase, otherwise known as Complex I, and at least four other nonphosphorylating NAD(P)H dehydrogenases. Complex I has been isolated from beetroot, broad bean, and potato mitochondria. It has at least 32 polypeptides associated with it, contains FMN as its prosthetic group, and the purified enzyme is sensitive to inhibition by rotenone. In terms of subunit complexity it appears similar to the mammalian and fungal enzymes. Some polypeptides display antigenic similarity to subunits from Neurospora crassa but little cross-reactivity to antisera raised against some beef heart complex I subunits. Plant complex I contains eight mitochondrial encoded subunits with the remainder being nuclear-encoded. Two of these mitochondrial-encoded subunits, nad7 and nad9, show homology to corresponding nuclear-encoded subunits in Neurospora crassa (49 and 30 kDa, respectively) and beef heart CI (49 and 31 kDa, respectively), suggesting a marked difference between the assembly of CI from plants and the fungal and mammalian enzymes. As well as complex I, plant mitochondria contain several type-II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases which mediate rotenone-insensitive oxidation of cytosolic and matrix NADH. We have isolated three of these dehydrogenases from beetroot mitochondria which are similar to enzymes isolated from potato mitochondria. Two of these enzymes are single polypeptides (32 and 55 kDa) and appear similar to those found in maize mitochondria, which have been localized to the outside of the inner membrane. The third enzyme appears to be a dimer comprised of two identical 43-kDa subunits. It is this enzyme that we believe contributes to rotenone-insensitive oxidation of matrix NADH. In addition to this type-II dehydrogenases, several observations suggest the presence of a smaller form of CI present in plant mitochondria which is insensitive to rotenone inhibition. We propose that this represents the peripheral arm of CI in plant mitochondria and may participate in nonphosphorylating matrix NADH oxidation.
