The NADH-quinone oxidoreductases of the bacterial respiratory chain could be divided in two groups depending on whether they bear an energy-coupling site. Those enzymes that bear the coupling site are designated as NADH dehydrogenase 1 (NDH-1) and those that do not as NADH dehydrogenase 2 (NDH-2). All members of the NDH-1 group analyzed to date are multiple polypeptide enzymes and contain noncovalently bound FMN and iron-sulfur clusters as prosthetic groups. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activities of NDH-1 are inhibited by rotenone, capsaicin, and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The NDH-2 enzymes are generally single polypeptides and contain noncovalently bound FAD and no iron-sulfur clusters. The enzymatic activities of the NDH-2 are not affected by the above inhibitors for NDH-1. Recently, it has been found that both of these types of the NADH-quinone oxidoreductase are present in a single strain of bacteria. The significance of the occurrence of these two types of enzymes in a single organism has been discussed in this review.

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]. When the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex was irradiated by UV light in the presence of [adenylate-32P]NAD, radioactivity was incorporated exclusively into one of three polypeptides of Mr approximately 50,000. Similar results were obtained when [adenylate-32P]NADH was used. The labeling of the Mr 50,000 polypeptide was diminished when UV irradiation of the enzyme with [adenylate-32P]NAD was performed in the presence of NADH, but not in the presence of NADP(H). The labeled polypeptide was isolated by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and was shown to cross-react with antiserum to the NADH-binding subunit (Mr = 51,000) of bovine NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase. Its amino acid composition was also very similar to that of the bovine NADH-binding subunit. These chemical and immunological results indicate that the Mr 50,000 polypeptide is an NADH-binding subunit of the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex.

The respiratory chain NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NADH dehydrogenase or Complex I) of mitochondria comprises some 30 different subunits, and one FMN and 4 or 5 iron-sulfur clusters as internal redox groups. The bacterial glucose dehydrogenase, which oxidizes glucose to gluconolactone in the periplasmatic space and transfers the electrons to ubiquinone, is a single polypeptide chain with pyrolloquinoline quinone as the only redox group. We report here that the two different enzymes have the same ubiquinone binding domain motif and we discuss the predicted membrane folding of this domain with regard to its role in the proton translocating function of the two enzymes.

A lambda gt11 cDNA expression library was screened with antibodies directed against individual subunits of complex I from Neurospora crassa. Clones encoding cytoplasmically synthesized polypeptides with apparent molecular masses of 22, 29, 31, and 33 kDa were isolated. Northern blot analysis revealed that the corresponding genes are transcribed into mRNA species of about 0.85, 0.95, 1.3, and 1.4 kilobases, respectively. Further characterization of clones encoding the 22-kDa subunit was performed. A cDNA insert of 755 base pairs containing the complete coding sequence was used to express the polypeptide in vitro. A precursor of the protein is synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes without a cleavable signal sequence. Our data indicate that after import into the organelle and before assembly into complex I, the 22-kDa polypeptide forms intramolecular disulfide bridge(s). Nucleotide sequencing revealed an open reading frame coding for a protein of 183 amino acids. A molecular mass of 20,828 daltons was calculated. The polypeptide is hydrophilic and contains no obvious membrane-spanning domains. Eight cysteine residues arranged in a regular pattern are found in the primary structure of the protein. Therefore, this subunit is a good candidate to bind at least one of the iron-sulfur centers present in complex I of the respiratory chain.

Anti-mitochondrial autoantibodies (AMA) from patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) were analysed for fine specificity by immunoblotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Inhibition ELISA showed that complex I (NADH-ubiquinone reductase) from beef heart mitochondria completely inhibited the binding of AMA to mitochondrial inner membranes (SMP), indicating that the major mitochondrial antigens are located in complex I. Immunoblot analysis of beef heart SMP, complex I and the iron sulphur (IP) subfraction of complex I revealed several antigens, one of which (75 kDa) reacted with all PBC sera but not with the additional autoimmune sera tested. Resolution of SMP or complex I by two-dimensional electrophoresis yielded in both preparations a polypeptide of 75 kDa with an isoelectric point of 6.4, which reacted with PBC serum and with rabbit antisera raised against the 75,000 subunit of complex I. In immunoblot experiments, the antigenicity of the 75,000 polypeptide in SMP, complex I, and the IP subfraction is increased by prior reduction of the sample with mercaptoethanol. This suggests a similarity to the PBC-specific 'M-2' antigen, which is also sensitive to sulphur reagents. The data indicate that the 75 kDa polypeptide of complex I is a major mitochondrial antigen binding AMA in PBC sera, and allows us to identify the location and probable function of the PBC antigen.

Complex I from Neurospora crassa was fractionated using chaotropic agents and various chromatographic techniques. Several subunits were isolated. Polyclonal antibodies directed against the holocomplex or individual subunits were raised in rabbits, and employed to analyse the composition and assembly of this respiratory chain enzyme in vivo. N. crassa cells were pulse-labelled with radioactive amino acids. The time course of incorporation of radioactivity into complex-I polypeptides was studied by immunoprecipitation. The labelling kinetics of whole complex I was found to be similar to that of cytochrome oxidase, displaying a half-maximal labelling time of 10 min. Newly synthesized individual polypeptide subunits (about 23 species) assembled into the holoenzyme at markedly different rates. Two mitochondrially synthesized proteins, a 29-kDa polypeptide (the ND-1 gene product) and a 12-kDa polypeptide were the fastest components to appear in the enzyme. We estimate that the precursor pool sizes of all components range between 1-25% of the amounts present in the final complex. Precursors of polypeptides of complex I were synthesized in an heterologous cell-free system and immunoprecipitated with subunit specific antibodies. Six isolated precursors were compared with the corresponding mature proteins. It appears that four subunits (apparent molecular masses of 22, 25, 31 and 33 kDa) are initially synthesized as larger-molecular-mass precursors. Two subunits (apparent molecular masses of 12.5 and 14 kDa) are made with the same size as their mature forms.

A gene of the chloroplast genome has been designated the psbG gene on the basis that in maize the gene product is a 24-kDa polypeptide of photosystem two (PS2) (Steinmetz, A. A., Castroviejo, M., Sayre, R. T., and Bogorad, L. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 2485-2488). We have located and sequenced the equivalent gene in wheat (Triticum aestivum) and have raised specific antibodies to the gene product following its expression in Escherichia coli as a beta-galactosidase fusion protein. Using these antibodies, we have investigated the location of the gene product in various thylakoid membrane fractions of pea (Pisum sativum). The gene product of apparent molecular mass 27-28 kDa is severely depleted in PS2-enriched membrane preparations and its distribution between stromal and granal regions of the membrane is distinct to that of the psbC gene product which is known to be a core polypeptide of PS2. We therefore conclude that psbG does not code for a component of PS2 but instead suggest that it is present in a novel protein complex of the thylakoid membrane. On the basis of 1) the conserved overlap between psbG and ndhC, a chloroplast gene which shows significant homology to a mitochondrial gene that codes for a subunit of the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase of mitochondria, and 2) sequence similarity between the psbG gene product and the ndh gene product of E. coli, which codes for a respiratory NADH dehydrogenase, we propose that this ill-defined complex functions as a NADH or NADPH-plastoquinone oxidoreductase.

A 70 kD protein, which we have named mitoskelin, is highly enriched in cytoskeletal preparations from bovine cardiac muscle. Mitoskelin has three main variants with isoelectric points between 5.6 and 5.8. Immunoblotting with polyclonal antibodies directed against mitoskelin shows that, like intermediate filament proteins, the majority of mitoskelin resists solubilization from a myocardial homogenate by a series of extraction solutions ranging from very low salt to 0.6 M KI buffers and by 0.1-1% Nonidet P-40 detergent. By double-label immunofluorescence on cells and tissues, mitoskelin is colocalized with the mitochondrial marker cytochrome c oxidase. Mitoskelin is associated with the inner membranes of mitochondria as shown by immunoelectron microscopy and immunoblotting. Immunological cross-reactivity and similarities of molecular weight, pI, distribution, and chromatographic properties indicate that mitoskelin is the 70 kD component of complex I (NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase), a portion of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system. No function or activity has yet been demonstrated for the 70 kD component of the 25-polypeptide complex I. Dialysis against physiological buffers allows purified, urea-solubilized mitoskelin to form 10 nm wide filamentous structures that do not closely resemble intermediate filaments. These results suggest the exciting possibility that mitochondria may contain a membrane-associated filamentous skeleton.

The alkalophile NADH dehydrogenase (NADH: 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol oxidoreductase) [EC 1.6.99.3] consists of two identical subunits of 65 kDa, and each subunit contains the catalytic and liposome-binding regions. On treatment with trypsin, the polypeptide exhibiting the liposome-binding property in one of the subunits was digested to form an enzymatically active hetero-dimer (40 and 65 kDa), and then the polypeptide in the other subunit was digested to form an active homo-dimer (40 and 40 kDa). The hetero-dimer bound to liposomes, but the homo-dimer did not. Kinetic analysis showed that removal of one or two of the polypeptides in the enzyme slightly affects its kinetic parameters. For all the enzyme species, NAD inhibited competitively with respect to NADH and non-competitively with respect to 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. The partially determined amino acid sequence of this alkalophile enzyme suggested that (i) a long random-coiled peptide (58 amino acid residues) or a portion of the peptide is located between the polypeptides with liposome-binding and catalytic properties, (ii) the polypeptide exhibiting liposome-binding property is in the amino terminal region of the enzyme, (iii) the amino acid sequences around the subtilisin and trypsin cleavage sites of the peptide are hydrophilic and on the surface of the protein molecule and therefore are susceptible to digestion, and (iv) the FAD-binding site is located near the amino terminal region of the catalytic region.

Highly active succinate-ubiquinone reductase has been purified from cytoplasmic membranes of aerobically grown Paracoccus denitrificans. The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 100 units per mg protein, and a turnover number of 305 s-1. Succinate-ubiquinone reductase activity of the purified enzyme is inhibited by 3'-methylcarboxin and thenoyltrifluoroacetone. Four subunits, with apparent molecular masses of 64.9, 28.9, 13.4 and 12.5 kDa, were observed on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme contains 5.62 nmol covalently bound flavin and 3.79 nmol cytochrome b per mg protein. The 64.9 kDa subunit was shown to be a flavoprotein by its fluorescence. Polyclonal antibodies raised against this protein cross-reacted with the flavoprotein subunit of bovine heart mitochondrial succinate-ubiquinone reductase. The 28.9 kDa subunit is likely analogous to the bovine heart iron protein, and the cytochrome b heme is probably associated with one or both of the low-molecular-weight polypeptides. The cytochrome b is not reducible with succinate but is reoxidized with fumarate after prereduction with dithionite. Iron-sulfur clusters S-1 and S-3 of the Paracoccus oxidoreductase exhibit EPR spectra very similar to their mitochondrial counterparts. Paracoccus succinate-ubiquinone reductase complex is thus similar to the bovine heart mitochondrial enzyme with respect to prosthetic groups, enzymatic activity, inhibitor sensitivities, and polypeptide subunit composition.
