NADH dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis W23 has been isolated from membrane vesicles solubilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 by hydrophobic interaction chromatography on an octyl-Sepharose CL-4B column. A 70-fold purification is achieved. No other components could be detected with sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Ferguson plots of the purified protein indicated no anomalous binding of sodium dodecyl sulphate and an accurate molecular weight of 63 000 could be determined. From the amino acid composition a polarity of 43.8% was calculated indicating that the protein is not very hydrophobic. Optical absorption spectra and acid extraction of the enzyme chromophore followed by thin-layer chromatography showed that the enzyme contains 1 molecule FAD/molecule. The enzyme was found to be specific for NADH. NADPH is oxidized at a rate which is less than 6% of the rate of NADH oxidation. The activity of the enzyme as determined by NADH:3-(4'-5'-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)2,4-diphenyltetrazolium bromide oxidoreduction is optimal at 37 C and pH 7.5-8.0. The purified enzyme has a Kapp for NADH of 60 microM and a V of 23.5 mumol NADH/min X mg protein. These parameters are not influenced by phospholipids. The enzyme activity is hardly or not at all affected by NADH-related compounds such as ATP, ADP, AMP, adenosine, deoxyadenosine, adenine and nicotinic amide indicating the high binding specificity of the enzyme for NADH.

The rate of NADH oxidation with oxygen as the acceptor is very low in mouse liver plasma membrane and erythrocyte membrane. When vanadate is added, this rate is stimulated 10- to 20-fold. The absorption spectrum of vanadate does not change with the disappearance of NADH. The reaction is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, and there is no activity under an argon atmosphere. This indicates that oxygen is the electron acceptor and the reaction is mediated by superoxide. The vanadate stimulation is not limited to plasma membrane. Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum show similar increase in NADH oxidase activity when vanadate is added. The endomembranes have significant vanadate-stimulated activity with both NADH and NADPH. The vanadate-stimulated NADH oxidase in plasma membrane is inhibited by compounds, which inhibit NADH dehydrogenase activity: catechols, anthracycline drugs and manganese. This activity is stimulated by high phosphate and sulfate anion concentrations.

We investigated the changes of the inner-membrane components and the electron-transfer activities of bovine heart submitochondrial particles induced by the lipid peroxidation supported by NADPH in the presence of ADP-Fe3+. Most of the polyunsaturated fatty acids were lost as a result of the peroxidation, and phospholipids were changed to polar species. Ubiquinone was also modified to polar substances as the peroxidation proceeded. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis showed the disappearance of 27000-Mr and 30000-Mr proteins and the appearance of highly polymerized substances. Flavins and cytochromes were not diminished, but the respiratory activity was lost. The reactions of NADH oxidase and NADH-cytochrome c reductase were most sensitive to the peroxidation, followed by those of succinate oxidase and succinate-cytochrome c reductase. Succinate dehydrogenase and duroquinol-cytochrome c reductase were inactivated by more extensive peroxidation, but cytochrome c oxidase was only partially inactivated. NADH-ferricyanide reductase was not inactivated. The pattern of the inactivation indicated that the lipid peroxidation affected the electron transport intensively between NADH dehydrogenase and ubiquinone, and moderately at the succinate dehydrogenase step and between ubiquinone and cytochrome c.

The ability of mitochondria to take up and retain Ca2+, and thereby to effect the free intracellular concentration of this ion, is well established. More recently, it has been reported (Lehninger, A. L., Vercesi, A., and Bababunmi, E. A. (1978) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 75, 1690-1696) that the redox state of pyridine nucleotides modulates mitochondrial Ca2+ balance, since the oxidation of mitochondrial NAD(P)H is associated with the release of Ca2+ from these organelles. The latter may be achieved by a variety of treatments including the incubation of Ca2+-loaded liver mitochondria with hydroperoxides, the metabolism of which by the glutathione peroxidase-glutathione reductase system results in NADPH consumption. The metabolism of menadione (2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone) by Ca2+-loaded rat liver mitochondria results in rapid oxidation and loss of pyridine nucleotides and a decrease in ATP level. It is also associated with Ca2+ release and an impaired ability of the mitochondria to take up and retain Ca2+. The effects of menadione on mitochondrial Ca2+ balance are more rapid and pronounced than those of t-butylhydroperoxide, and in contrast to those observed with the hydroperoxide, they are not abolished by pretreatment with a glutathione-depleting agent. The effects of menadione on Ca2+ homeostasis are probably initiated by NAD(P)H oxidation linked to the reduction of menadione by both NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase and NAD(P)H:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase.

The respiratory chain-linked external NADH dehydrogenase has been isolated from Candida utilis in highly purified form. The enzyme is soluble and has a molecular weight of approx. 1.5 x 10(6). The enzyme contains two moles of FMN per mole of enzyme and is composed of two large subunits of mol. wt. 270 000 and eight smaller subunits of mol. wt. 135 000. Iron and copper are present in the preparations, but appear to be contaminants. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of NADH and NADPH at nearly equal rates and reacts readily with 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol, CoQ6 and CoQ1 derivatives as acceptors. Rotenone (10(-5) M) and seconal (10(-3) M) do not inhibit enzymatic activity.

Superoxide anion can modulate vascular smooth muscle tone and potentially affect the growth response in vascular disease. The present studies were undertaken to characterize the source of superoxide in rabbit aorta. Rings of aorta (5 mm) were incubated in physiological salt solution (PSS) for 30 min at 37 degrees C in the presence of 10 mM diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) with or without inhibitors of superoxide-generating systems. Rings were then placed in PSS containing 250 microM lucigenin at 37 degrees C in the presence or absence of inhibitors, and changes in amounts of superoxide were determined by measuring chemiluminescence (units). The inhibitors of xanthine oxidase, oxypurinol (300 microM), and of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase, rotenone (50 microM), had no significant effect on superoxide levels. An inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, iodonium thiophen, caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of superoxide anion (12.49 +/- 1.48 vs 5.27 +/- 1.81 and 2.30 +/- 0.36 units, control vs 7 microM and 70 microM iodonium thiopen, respectively). A structurally related iodonium compound, diphenyleneiodonium (20 microM), caused a 78% reduction in basal and DDC-evoked superoxide levels. In the presence or absence of DDC, exogenous administration of NADPH (10 microM-1 mM), but not NADP (1 mM), elicited a concentration-dependent rise in superoxide levels that was inhibited by iodonium thiophen. Particulate fractions of whole aortic tissue exhibited NADPH-dependent superoxide production that was inhibited by 1 microM diphenyleneiodonium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Bovine leukemia virus-transformed lamb embryo fibroblasts (line FLK) possess activity of DT-diaphorase of ca. 260 U/mg protein and similar levels of other NADP(H)-oxidizing enzymes: NADH:oxidase, 359 U/mg; NADPH:oxidase, 43 U/mg; NADH:cytochrome-c reductase, 141 U/mg; NADPH:cytochrome-c reductase, 43 U/mg. In general, the toxicity of aromatic nitrocompounds towards FLK cells increases on increase of single-electron reduction potentials (E1(1)) of nitrocompounds or the log of their reduction rate constants by single-electron-transferring enzymes, microsomal NADPH:cytochrome P-450 reductase (EC 1.6.2.4) and mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone reductase (EC 1.6.99.3). No correlation between the toxicity and reduction rate of nitrocompounds by rat liver DT-diaphorase (EC 1.6.99.2) was observed. The toxicity is not significantly affected by dicumarol, an inhibitor of DT-diaphorase. Nitrocompounds examined were poor substrates for DT-diaphorase, being 10(4) times less active than menadione. Their poor reactivity is most probably determined by their preferential binding to a NADPH binding site, but not to menadione binding site of diaphorase. These data indicate that at comparable activities of DT-diaphorase and single-electron-transferring NAD(P)H dehydrogenases in the cell, the toxicity of nitrocompounds will be determined mainly by their single-electron reduction reactions.

Intact rat kidney cortex mitochondria oxidize external NADH and NADPH. Basal NADH oxidation of mitochondria, but not basal NADPH oxidation, is stimulated by hexammine-ruthenium (HR). 10.7 mumol/l HR induce 50% of the maximal NADH-oxidizing activity and amounted to 169 nmol NADH/min/mg of mitochondrial protein. The HR-stimulated NADH oxidation involves a stoichiometric 1:1 oxygen consumption. The electron transfer from NADH to oxygen does not occur via the respiratory chain complex I, but is connected with a superoxide anion radical formation. Experiments with intact mitochondria, submitochondrial particles and inner mitochondrial membranes show that rat kidney cortex mitochondria possess a NADH oxidase localized on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Isolated mitochondria supplemented with succinate or NAD(+)-linked substrates generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in State 4 and the generation is enhanced by antimycin A, an inhibitor of the respiratory chain. Superoxide is a stoichiometric precursor of mitochondrial H2O2 because the ratio of O2-/H2O2 generation rates is close to 2.0 and is generated by an autoxidizable component in the NADH dehydrogenase and the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. Lipid peroxidation is a free radical-mediated degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Lipid-peroxidation reactions by bovine submitochondrial particles are supported by NADH or NADPH in the presence of ADP-Fe3+ chelate. Electrons from NADH are supplied to the reactions from a component between the substrate site and the rotenone-sensitive site of the NADH dehydrogenase. The peroxidation is dependent on the rate of electron input into the respiratory chain and on the concentration of reduced ubiquinone. Alteration of inner-membrane components and damage to electron-transfer activities of submitochondrial particles are induced by lipid peroxidation. 1-Melhyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a metabolite of a parkinsonism-inducing drug, induces NADH-dependent superoxide formation and enhances NADH-dependent lipid peroxidation in submitochondrial particles, indicating that the oxidative stress induced by MPP+ may potentiate its toxicity in dopamine neurons.

Adult Hymenolepis diminuta mitochondria catalyze a transhydrogenation reaction between NADPH and NAD and between NADH and NAD. The NADPH-->NAD reaction is catalyzed by an inner membrane-associated pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase, whereas the NADH-->NAD reaction is ostensibly catalyzed by another system(s). The source(s) of NADH-->NAD activity was evaluated by assessments of its intramitochondrial distribution and thermal lability and by comparisons with the distribution/thermal lability of NADH dehydrogenase, lipoamide dehydrogenase, and NADPH-->NAD transhydrogenase. The occurrence of NADH and lipoamide dehydrogenase components was readily demonstrable. Like NADPH-->NAD transhydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase was essentially membrane bound. Lipoamide dehydrogenase and NADH-->NAD activities were, at different levels, in the membrane and soluble fractions. Based on thermal profiles, NADH and lipoamide dehydrogenase differed from each other and from NADPH-->NAD transhydrogenase. Although the NADH-->NAD profile closely paralleled that for lipoamide dehydrogenase, it also was similar to the NADH dehydrogenase profile. Collectively, these data are consistent with the supposition that the H. diminuta mitochondrial NADH-->NAD transhydrogenation reaction is catalyzed by lipoamide dehydrogenase and possibly by NADH dehydrogenase rather than by an independent transhydrogenase system.
