Addition of ubiquinone-1 to E. coli ML 308-225 membrane vesicles dramatically increases coupling between NADH oxidation and active transport such that initial rates and steady-state levels of lactose and amino-acid accumulation are comparable to those observed during D-lactate oxidation. Similar but less dramatic effects are observed with the quinone and succinate or L-lactate. In the presence of NADH and ubiquinone-1, the vesicles also generate a membrane potential (interior negative) that is similar in magnitude to that observed in the presence of D-lactate. Stimulation of NADH-dependent transport by ubiquinone-1 cannot be accounted for by increased rates of oxidation of NADH, and the effect of the quinone on NADH-dependent lactose transport is not observed in vesicles depleted of NADH dehydrogenase activity. Thus, it is apparent that ubiquinone-1 shunts electrons from NADH dehydrogenase [NADH:(acceptor)oxidoreductase; EC 1.6.99.3] to the portion of the respiratory chain containing the energy-coupling site. The findings demonstrate unequivocally that inefficient coupling of NADH oxidation to active transport cannot be due to the presence of inverted vesicles. In addition, they provide further support for specific localization of the energy-coupling site.

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.

1. Submitochondrial particles from Neurospora strain inl-89601 have been analyzed by electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR). Numerous signals due to iron-sulfur proteins are observed at low temperatures. Analysis of these ESR signals at various temperatures allows the assignment of resonances to iron-sulfur centers 1-5 that have been described in other organisms. There are no discrepancies between the signals seen in Neurospora and those described in other organisms and it is likely that Neurospora mitochondria contain the same iron-sulfur centers that are observed elsewhere. 2. NADPH and NADH act to reduce the iron-sulfur centers of respiratory complex I. 3. The drug pyrrolnitrin [3-chloro-4-(2'-nitro-3'-chlorphenyl)pyrrole] is an effective inhibitor of both NADH-supported and succinate-supported electron transport in Neurospora. 4. Analysis of pyrrolnitrin inhibition curves, respiration studies, ESR spectra, and the steady-state level of reduction of cytochrome b in the presence and absence of the drug shows that pyrrolnitrin acts to inhibit electron transport in Neurospora mitochondria at multiple sites in the region between ubiquinone and cytochrome b.

This paper clarifies the role of cytochrome c in Pseudomonas AM1 by measuring the stoicheiometry of proton translocation driven by respiration of endogenous or added substrates in wild-type bacteria and in a mutant lacking cytochrome c (mutant PCT76). The maximum -->H(+)/O ratio (protons translocated out of the bacteria per atom of oxygen consumed during respiration) was about 4 and, except when respiration was markedly affected, this ratio was similar in mutant and wild-type bacteria. The -->H(+)/O ratios were unaltered when the usual oxidase (cytochrome a(3)) was inhibited by 300mum-KCN and respiration involved the single cytochrome b functioning as an alternative oxidase. Ratios measured in cells respiring endogenous substrate and in cells loaded with malate or 3-hydroxybutyrate suggest that there are two proton-translocating segments operating during the oxidation of NADH. By contrast, during oxidation of formaldehyde or methylamine only one pair of protons is translocated. Proton translocation could not be measured with methanol as substrate, because its oxidation was inhibited (90-95%) by 5mm-KSCN. It is tentatively proposed that the electron-transport chain for NADH oxidation in Pseudomonas AM1 is arranged such that the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase forms one proton-translocating segment and the second segment consists of ubiquinone and cytochromes b and a/a(3). The cytochrome c appears to be essential only for respiration and proton translocation from methanol (and possibly from methylamine); there is no conclusive evidence that cytochrome c ever mediates between cytochromes b and a/a(3) in Pseudomonas AM1.

1. The activities of the soluble reconstitutively active succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1) measured with three artificial electron acceptors, e.g. ferricyanide, phenazine methosulfate and free radical of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (WB), have been compared. The values estimated by extrapolation to infinite acceptor concentration using double reciprocal plots 1/v versus 1/[acceptor] are nearly the same for ferricyanide and phenazine methosulfate and about twice as high for the WB. 2. The double reciprocal plots 1/v versus 1/[succinate] in the presence of malonate at various concentrations of WB give a series of straight lines intercepting in the third quadrant. The data support the mechanism of the overall reaction, in which the reduced enzyme is oxidized by WB before dissociation of the enzyme-product complex. 3. The dependence of the rate of the overall reaction on WB concentration shows that only one kinetically significant redox site of the soluble succinate dehydrogenase is involved in the reduction of WB. 4. Studies of the change of V and Km values during aerobic inactivation of the soluble enzyme suggest that only 'the low Km ferricyanide reactive site' (Vinogradov, A.D., Gavrikova, E.V. and Goloveshkina, V.G. (1975) Biochem. Biophys, Res. Commun. 65, 1264--1269) is involved in reoxidation of the reduced enzyme by WB. 5. The pH dependence of V for the succinate-WB reductase reaction shows that the group of the enzyme with the pKa value of 6.7 at 22 degrees C is responsible for the reduction of dehydrogenase in the enzyme-substrate complex. 6. When WB interacts with the succinate-ubiquinone region of the respiratory chain, the double reciprocal plot 1/v versus 1/[WB] gives a straight line. The thenoyltrifluoroacetone inhibition of succinate-ubiquinone reductase or extraction of ubiquinone alter the 1/v versus 1/[WB] plots for the curves with a positive initial slope intercepting the ordinate at the same V as in the native particles. The data support the mechanism of succinate-ubiquinone reduction, in which no positive modulation of succinate dehydrogenase by ubiquinone exist in the membrane.

1. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra at 8-60 K of NADH-reduced membrane particles prepared from Paracoccus denitrificans grown anaerobically with nitrate as terminal electron acceptor show the presence of iron-sulfur centers 1-4 in the NADH-ubiquinone segment of the respiratory chain. In addition resonance lines at g = 2.058, g = 1.953 and g = 1.88 are detectable in the spectra of succinate-reduced membranes at 15 K, which are attributed to the iron-sulfur-containing nitrate reductase. 2. Sulphate-limited growth under anaerobic conditions does not affect the iron-sulfur pattern of NADH dehydrogenase or nitrate reductase. Furthermore respiratory chain-linked electron transport and its inhibition by rotenone are not influenced. These results contrast those observed for sulphate-limited growth of P. denitrificans under aerobic conditions [Eur. J. Biochem. (1977) 81, 267-275]. 3. Proton translocation studies of whole cells indicate that nitrite increases the proton conductance of the cytoplasmic membrane, resulting in a collapse of the proton gradient across the membrane. Nitrite accumulates under anaerobic growth conditions with nitrate as terminal electron acceptor; the extent of accumulation depends on the specific growth conditions. Thus the low efficiencies of respiratory chain-linked energy conservation observed during nitrate respiration [Arch. Microbiol. (1977) 112, 17-23] can be explained by the uncoupling action of nitrite.

1. Respiration of chemotrophically and phototrophically grown Rhodospirillum rubrum is inhibited by 2-hydroxydiphenyl. 2. Membrane-bound NADH oxidase and NADH: cytochrome c reductase are inhibited also. The inhibitor constant for both reactions (Ki) is 0.075 plus or minus 0.012 mM. NADH dehydrogenase is not inhibited significantly. 3. The inhibition of succinate:cytochrome c reductase is associated for chemotrophic membranes with Ki equals 0.22 plus or minus 0.03 mM and for phototrophic membranes with Ki equals 0.49 plus or minus 0.09 mM. Succinate dehydrogenase is not affected by 2-hydroxydiphenyl. 4. Cytochrome oxidase is inhibited only slightly. 5. While NADH-dependent reactions in both phototrophic and chemotrophic membranes are inhibited maximally more than 95 percent, succinate-dependent reactions can be inhibited more than 95 percent only in chemotrophic membranes. In phototrophic membranes the maximum inhibition of succinate-dependent reactions is about 70 percent. 6. The type of inhibition in both cases 2 and 3 is non-competitive. 7. While the reduction of b-type cytochrome is inhibited by 2-hydroxydiphenyl, the degree of ubiquinone reduction is not influenced. The data suggest that the site of inhibition is localized between ubiquinone and cytochrome b. 8. Implications of these data for the respiratory electron transport system in R. rubrum are discussed.

Several iron-sulfur centers in the NADH-ubiquinone segment of the respiratory chain in pigeon heart mitochondria and in submitochondrial particles were analyzed by the combined application of cryogenic EPR (between 30 and 4.2 degrees K) and potentiometric titration. Center N-1 (iron-sulfur centers associated with NADH dehydrogenase are designated with the prefix "N") resolves into two single electron titratins with EM7.2 values of minus 380 plus or minus 20 mV and minus 240 plus or minus 20 mV (Centers N-1a and N-1b, respectively). Center N-1a exhibits an EPR spectrum of nearly axial symmetry with g parellel = 2.03, g = 1.94, while that of Center N-1b shows more apparent rhombic symmetry with gz = 2.03, gy = 1.94 and gx = 1.91. Center N-2 also reveals EPR signals of axial symmetry at g parallel = 2.05 and g = 1.93 and its principal signal overlaps with those of Centers N-1a and N-1b. Center N-2 can be easily resolved from N-1a and N-1b because of its high EM7.2 value (minus 20 plus or minus 20 mV). Resolution of Centers N-3 and N-4 was achieved potentiometrically in submitochondrial particles. The component with EM7.2 = minus 240 plus or minus 20 mV is defined as Center N-3 (gz = 2.10, (gz = 2.10, (gy = 1.93?), GX = 1.87); the minus 405 plus or minus 20 mV component as Center N-4 (gz = 2.11, (gy = 1.93?), gx = 1.88). At temperatures close to 4.2 degrees K, EPR signals at g = 2.11, 2.06, 2.03, 1.93, 1.90 and 1.88 titrate with EM7.2 = minus 260 plus or minus 20 mV. The multiplicity of peaks suggests the presence of at least two different iron-sulfur centers having similar EM7.2 values (minus 260 plus or minus 20 mV); HENCE, tentatively assigned as N-5 and N-6. Consistent with the individual EM7.2 values obtained, addition of succinate results in the partial reduction of Center N-2, but does not reduce any other centers in the NADH-ubiquinone segment of the respiratory chain. Centers N-2, N-1b, N-3, N-5 and N-6 become almost completely reduced in the presence of NADH, while Centers N-1a and N-4 are only slightly reduced in pigeon heart submitochondrial particles. In pigeon heart mitochondria, the EM7.2 of Center N-4 lies much closer to that of Center N-3, so that resolution of the Center N-3 and N-4 spectra is not feasible in mitochondrial preparations. EM7.2 values and EPR lineshapes for the other iron-sulfur centers of the NADH-ubiquinone segment in the respiratory chain of intact mitochondria are similar to those obtained in submitochondrial particle preparations. Thus, it can be concluded that, in intact pigeon heart mitochondria, at least five iron-sulfur centers show EM7.2 values around minus 250 mV; Center N-2 exhibits a high EM7.2 (minus 20 plus or minus 20 mV), while Center N-1a shows a very low EM7.2 (minus 380 plus or minus 20 mV).

An NADH dehydrogenase possessing a specific activity 3-5 times that of membrane-bound enzyme was obtained by extraction of Acholeplasma laidlawii membranes with 9.0% ethanol at 43 degrees C. This dehydrogenase contained only trace amounts of iron (suggesting an uncoupled respiration), a flavin ratio of 1:2 FAD to FMN and 30-40% lipid. Its resistance to sedimentation is probably due to the high flotation density of the lipids. It efficiently utilized ferricyanide, menadione and dichlorophenol indophenol as electron acceptors, but not O2, ubiquinone Q10 or cytochrome c. Lineweaver-Burk plots of the dehydrogenase were altered to linear functions upon extraction with 9.0% ethanol. A secondary site of ferricyanide reduction could not be explained by the presence of cytochromes, which these membranes lack. In comparison to other respiratory chain-linked NADH dehydrogenases in cytochrome-containing respiratory chains, this dehydrogenase was characterized by similar Km's with ferricyanide, dichlorophenol indophenol, menadione as electron acceptors, but considerably smaller V's with ferricyanide, dichlorophenol indophenol, menadione as electron acceptors, and smaller specific activities. It was not stimulated or reactivated by the addition of FAD, FMN, Mg2+, cysteine or membrane lipids, and was less sensitive to respiratory inhibitors than unextracted enzyme. The ineffectiveness of ADP stimulation on O2 uptake, the insensitivity to oligomycin and the very low iron content of A. laidlawii membranes were considered in relation to conservation of energy by these cells. Some kinetic properties of the dehydrogenation, the uniquely high glycolipid content and apparently uncoupled respiration at Site I were noteworthy characteristics of this NADH dehydrogenase from the truncated respiratory chain of A. laidlawii.

(1) Studies of the steady-state kinetics of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of Complex I (NADH: Q oxidoreductase) revealed that the reaction mechanism with the one-electron acceptor ferricyanide or the two-electron acceptor 2,6-dichloro-indophenol is ping pong bi bi, with double substrate inhibition. NADH inhibits the reaction of the reduced form of the flavoprotein with the acceptors, and the acceptors prevent NADH from reacting with the oxidized form. This implies that both NADH and acceptors react with the same site on NADH dehydrogenase. (2) The velocity at infinite NADH and acceptor concentrations (corrected for the double substrate inhibition) is much larger with ferricyanide than with the indophenol. It is concluded that the latter binds to the reduced enzyme. Thus, with ferricyanide the rate constant measured refers to the dissociation of bound NAD+ from the reduced enzyme (k2) and with the indophenol to the rate constant of oxidation of reduced enzyme by bound acceptor (k4). The latter value is not an estimate for the situation in vivo, where ubiquinone is the acceptor. (3) The rate constant of the dissociation of bound NAD+ from the reduced enzyme (k2) increases with pH. It is suggested that an ionizing group on the enzyme is involved in the dissociation. (4) After extraction of ubiquinone from Complex I with pentane curve relating activity at infinite ferricyanide concentration to NADH concentration changes from hyperbolic to sigmoidal. The hyperbolic curve is restored by reincorporating ubiquinone. It is concluded that ubiquinone is an effector for NADH dehydrogenase.
