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.

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.

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
.

Cells of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata, strain 37b4, leu-, precultivated anaerobically under low light intensity, were exposed to high light intensity (2000 W.m-2). The cells grew with a mass doubling time of 3 h. The synthesis of bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) began after two doublings of cell mass. Reaction center and light-harvesting BChl I (B-875) were the main constituents of the photosynthetic apparatus incorporated into the membrane. The size of the photosynthetic unit (total BChl/reaction center) decreased and light-harvesting BChl I became the dominating BChl species. Concomitant with the appearance of the different spectral forms of BChl the respective proteins were incorporated into the membrane, i.e. the three reaction center polypeptides, the
polypeptide
associated with light-harvesting BChl I, the two polypeptides associated with BChl II. A
polypeptide
of an apparent molecular weight of 45 000 was also incorporated. A lowering of the light intensity to 7 W.m-2 resulted in a lag phase of growth for 6 h. Afterwards, the time for doubling of cell mass was 11 h. The concentration of all three BChl complexes (reaction center, light-harvesting BChl I and II complexes)/cell and per membrane protein increased immediately. Also the size of the photosynthetic unit and the amount of intracytoplasmic membranes/cell increased. The activities of photophosphorylation, succinate dehydrogenase,
NADH dehydrogenase
and NADH oxidation (respiratory chain)/membrane protein are higher in membrane preparations isolated from cells grown at high light intensities than in such preparations from cells grown at low light intensities.

Complex II (succinate-
coenzyme Q reductase
) was resolved into ten different polypeptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Four polypeptides, CII-1, CII-2, CII-3, and CII-4 with molecular weights of 70 000, 24 000, 13 500, and 7000, were present in large amounts in all preparations examined. CII-1 and CII-2 are the flavoprotein and iron-sulfur protein, respectively, of succinate dehydrogenase; CII-3 and CII-4 have not been functionally indentified. Six polypeptides were present in much smaller amoumts as judged by staining intensity, and each of these comigrated with components in complex III. The amino acid compositions of several of the minor components in complex II were identical with that of an equivalently migrating
polypeptide
in complex III. We conclude that succinate-
coenzyme Q reductase
contains four different polypeptides and is contaminated with variable amounts of complex III when isolated as complex II.

The chlorophyll-protein complexes I and II have been isolated and anlyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis during greening and degreening of Chlamydomonas reinhardi y-1. At all stages of membrane formation, the complexes, when present, have a constant composition. Chlorophyll-protein
complex I
consists of a major
polypeptide
(s) of molecular weight 64,000 synthesized in the chloroplast, to which about 29 chlorophyll a molecules are bound. The complex is not detected when other polypeptides of chloroplastic origin, related to both Photosystem I and Photosystem II activities, are not synthesized. However, Photosystem I activity can develop in membranes in which chlorophyll-protein
complex I
is not detectable. Chlorophyll-protein complex II consists of two polypeptides of cytoplasmic origin, molecular weights 24,000 and 22,000, which bind 12 chlorophylls (a and b). The chlorophyll-protein complex II can be detected in membranes in which the development of photosystem II activity is prevented. Clipping of a Mr = 2000 fragment(s) from the Mr = 22,000
polypeptide
following trypsin digestion of membranes, does not affect the complex. The detection of the complexes is possible only in membranes in which the simultaneous synthesis of both the chlorophyll and the corresponding polypeptides occurs. The 28,000 dalton
polypeptide
, reported to be present in the chlorophyll-protein complex II, comigrates with the complex but apparently is not part of the complex itself. The apparent molecular weight of the chlorophyll-protein complexes I and II are 88,000 and 28,000, respectively. The minimal true value for
complex I
is 89,000 or 154,000 and for complex II is 56,000.

Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of unheated, detergent-solubilized thylakoid membranes of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii gives two chlorophyll-protein complexes. Chlorophyll-protein
complex I
(CP I) is the blue-green in color and can be dissociated by heat into "free" chlorophyll and a constituent
polypeptide
(
polypeptide
2; mol wt 66,000). Similar experiments with spinach and Chinese cabbage show that the higher plant CP I contains an equivalent
polypeptide
but of slightly lower molecular weight (64,000). Both
polypeptide
2 and its counterpart in spinach are soluble in a 2:1 (vol/vol) mixture of chloroform-methanol. Chemical analysis reveals that C. reinhardtii CP I has a chlorophyll a to b weight ratio of about 5 and that it contains approximately 5% of the total chlorophyll and 8-9% of the total protein of the thylakoid membranes. Thus, it can be calculated that each constituent
polypeptide
chain is associated with eight to nine chlorophyll molecules. Attempts to measure the molecular weight of CP I by calibrated SDS gels were unsuccessul since the complex migrates anomalously in such gels. Two Mendelian mutants of C. reinhardtii, F1 and F14, which lack P700 but have normal photosystem I activity, do not contain CP I or the 66,000-dalton
polypeptide
in their thylakoid membranes. Our results suggest that CP I is essential for photosystem I reaction center activity and that P700 may be associated with the 66,000-dalton
polypeptide
.

One of the mechanisms underlying the regulation of the bacteriophage f2 RNA translation is the repression of the phage RNA-replicase formation by coat protein. This repression is due to the formation of a complex between f2 RNA and coat protein (complex I). In this work the mechanism of
complex I
formation as well as the effect of this complex on the f2 RNA-replicase formation was followed by inhibition of alanine incorporation into RNA-replicase
polypeptide
which was separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molar ratios of protein to f2 RNA in
complex I
were analyzed by sucrose gradient sedimentation. It was been found that
complex I
consists of six molecules of coat protein bound per one molecule of RNA. Ribonuclease digestion of the glutaraldehyde-fixed complex resulted in a mixture of products in which the hexamers of coat protein molecules were predominant. This indicates that the six molecules of coat protein bound to f2 RNA are neighbouring. It has been also shown that under conditions required for phage protein synthesis, coat protein occurs in solution is dimer. The results show that the translational repression of the RNA-replicase cistron is due to the cooperative attachment of three dimers of coat protein to phage template, forming a hexameric cluster on the RNA strand. The proposed mechanism of the
complex I
formation seems to be in good agreement with the sequence of events in the phage F2 life cycle. It is known that shortly after infection of the host cell the coat protein and phage RNA-replicase begin to be synthesised. According to our findings, the first portions of coat protein do not affect the translation of the RNA-replicase gene since at low concentration the coat protein occure in the form of monomers. At a later period of phage development, when the concentration of coat protein is sufficiently high to promote the formation of protein dimers, the translational repressor complex is formed and the RNA-replicase gene becomes inoperative.

The
NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase
(complex I) of mitochondria is constructed from two arms arranged perpendicular to each other. The peripheral arm protruding into the matrix contains the proximal section of the electron pathway, and the membrane arm with all mitochondrially encoded subunits contains the distal section of the electron pathway. When Neurospora crassa is grown under manganese limitation the formation of the peripheral arm is disturbed, but the membrane arm containing the iron-sulfur cluster N-2, is accumulated. An extra-
polypeptide
, assumed to be a chaperone, is found to be associated with this pre-assembled membrane arm.
