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.

The purified respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli oxidizes NADH with either dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP). ferricyanide, or menadione as electron acceptors, with values for NADH are similar with the three electron acceptors (approximately 50 muM). The purified enzyme contains no flavin and has an absolute requirement for FAD, with Km values around 4 muM. The pH optimum of the enzyme appears to be between 6.5 and 7; the optimum is difficult to establish because of nonenzymatic reduction of DCIP at the lower pH values. Potassium cyanide stimulates the DCIP reductase activity about 2-fold, but has no effect on ferricyanide reductase. The enzyme exhibits hyperbolic kinetics with respect to NADH concentration in both the ferricyanide and DCIP reductase assays, but cooperatively is seen in the menadione reductase reaction. NAD+ is an effective competitive inhibitor of the reaction (Ki congruent to 20 muM); in the presence of NAD+, the NADH saturation curve becomes cooperative, even in the DCIP reductase assay. Many adenine containing nucleotides are competitive inhibitors of the enzyme. The apparent Ki values for these nucleotides as inhibitors of the purified enzyme, the membrane-bound NADH dehydrogenase, and the NADH oxidase are equivalent. An examination of inhibitory effects of a series of adenine nucleotides suggests that the inhibitors act as analogues of NAD+, which is the true physiological inhibitor. The results suggest that the enzyme in situ is always partially inhibited by the levels of NAD- in the E coli cell, and thus behaves in a cooperative fashion to changes in the NAD+/NADH ratio. An antibody has been elicited against the purified NADH dehydrogenase. Immunodiffusion and crossed immunoelectrophoresis show that the antibody is directed principally against the NADH dehydrogenase, with some activity against minor contaminants in the purified preparation. The antibody inhibits NADH dehydrogenase activity 50% at saturating levels. When this antibody preparation is used to examine solubilized membrane preparations, two major immunoprecipitates are found. A parallel inhibition of the membrane-bound NADH dehydrogenase and NADH oxidase activities is seen, supporting the hypothesis that the purified enzyme is indeed a component of the respiratory chain-dependent NADH oxidase pathway.

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.

Measurement of the effect of drugs on the in vivo rates of synthesis of rabbit liver organelle bound proteins were measured following individual treatments with the inducers phenobarbital, 3-methylcholanthrene and PCB (a mixture of polychlorinated biphenyls) and the inhibitors, cycloheximide, aflatoxin B1, chloramphenicol and actinomycin D. Following their isolation from a homogenate containing the combined livers of 14C-leucine injected experimental animals and 3H-leucine injected control animals, purified fractions of the following proteins were prepared: microsomal cytochrome b5, cytochrome P-450, NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and proteolipids, outer mitochondrial membrane cytochrome b5, NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and proteolipids, inner mitochondrial membrane cytochrome c, NADH dehydrogenase and proteolipids, intermitochondrial membrane cytochrome b5 and circulating serum albumin. The effect of a drug was examined by measuring the 14C/3H ratio of leucine incorporation of each fraction; ratios which differed markedly from a control value of 1 represented actual changes in the relative rates of protein synthesis. Increased rates of synthesis of cytochrome P-450 and its reductase, intermitochondrial membrane cytochrome b5 and all three proteolipid fractions resulted from each inducer treatment. Treatments with 3-methylcholanthrene and PCB also increased the rate of synthesis of cytochrome b5 and its reductase in both the microsome and outer mitochondrial membrane. In addition, the PCB treatment increased the rates of synthesis of cytochrome c and NADH-dehydrogenase. The rates of synthesis of cytochromes, reductases and of circulating serum albumin were inhibited following treatments with cycloheximide, aflatoxin B1 and actinomycin D. Actinomycin D appeared to inhibit the release of newly synthesized albumin into the bloodstream while chloramphenicol treatment appeared to inhibit the incorporation of cytochrome c into the mitochondria. After 20 hours of treatment with inhibitors, the inhibitory effect of actinomycin D and cycloheximide were still apparent while the rates of protein synt;esis in chloramphenicol and aflatoxin B1 treated animals increased to levels above the controls. The incorporation of radioactively labeled leucine into the proteolipids of the microsomal, and the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes were inhibited following the treatment with actinomycin D and stimulated following the treatment with cycloheximide.

It has been reported that cells of Candida utilis, grown in continuous culture under iron-limited conditions, develop site 1 phosphorylation, without the appearance of piericidin sensitivity and without changes in the iron-sulfur centers of NADH dehydrogenase, on aeration in the presence of cycloheximide, as well as on increasing the supply of iron during growth. These findings were reinvestigated in the present study. The parameters and properties followed during these transitions were sensitivity of NADH oxidation to piericidin, presence or absence of coupling site 1, EPR signals appearing on reduction with NADH or dithionite, the specific activities of NADH oxidase, NADH-ferricyanide reductase, and NADH-5-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (juglone) reductase, and the kinetic behavior of NADH dehydrogenase in the ferricyanide assay. Monitoring the rates of oxidation of NADH in submitochondrial particles with artificial oxidants, observing the kinetics of the ferricyanide assay, and measuring the concentration of iron-sulfur centers elicited by EPR permitted ascertaining the type of NADH dehydrogenase present and its relative concentration in different experimental situations. It was found that on gradually increasing the concentration of iron during continuous culture (transition from ironlimited to iron- and substrate-limited growth), as well as on aeration of iron-limited cells, coupling site 1, piericidin sensitivity, NADH-ferricyanide activity, and iron-sulfur centers 1 and 2 increased concurrently, with concomitant decline of NADH-juglone reductase activity. Cycloheximide prevented all these changes. Iron-sulfur centers 3 plus 4 underwent relatively little increase during these transitions. It is concluded that in both of these experimental conditions a replacement of the type of NADH dehydrogenase present in exponential phase cells by that characteristic of stationary phase cells occurs and that the appearance of site 1 phosphorylation, piercidin sensitivity, and iron-sulfur centers 1 plus 2, all associated with the latter enzyme, is a consequence of this replacement. No evidence was found for the development of coupling site 1 without the appearance of piericidin sensir th

Semliki Forest virus inhibits phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis in baby hamster kidney-21 cells 6 h after infection. Viral infection reduced the incorporation of [1,2-14C]-ethanolamine into intact cells by approximately 50%. A similar reduction in the activity of the ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) was also observed. The apparent Km for CDPethanolamine was 60 muM for the microsomal enzymes from infected or mock-infected cells. In addition, exogenous diglyceride only stimulated by 1.5-fold the ethanolaminephosphotransferase from virus- or mock-infected cells, whereas the same diglyceride preparations stimulated the cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) from baby hamster kidney cells by sixfold. Generation of endogenous diglyceride by pretreatment of the microsomes with phospholipase C (EC 3.1.4.3) stimulated the activity of the cholinephosphotransferase but not the ethanolaminephosphotranferase. Semliki Forest virus does not inhibit all microsomal enzymes, since the activities of NADH- K3Fe(CN)6 reductase and NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3) were not affected. The ethanolaminephosphotransferase from virus- and mock-infected cells showed similar profiles of activity as a function of temperature; this result and other studies suggest that that membranous environment of the ethanolaminephosphotransferase was not significantly modified by the virus.

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.

The enzyme system from Clostridium sticklandii catalyzing the NADH-dependent reduction of D-proline was co-purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose at pH 8.2 and ammonium sulfate fractionation, and resolved into fractions containing three different protein components, NADH dehydrogenase, D-proline reductase and a third protein factor, by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose at pH 7.0. Upon recombination of the fractions containing the three different protein components, the NADH-dependent reduction of D-proline was successfully reconstituted. The NADH dehydrogenase fractions oxidized NADH in the presence of artificial electron acceptors, and were inhibited by p-hydroxymercuriphenylsulfonate (50% at 80 nM). They contained 3--4 different enzyme bands as revealed by polyacrylamide-gel electropherograms stained with the NADH-dependent reduction of 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride. D-Proline reduction was also coupled to a leuco-methylene blue-generating system containing D-glucose and glucose-oxidase (EC 1.1.3.4). Circumstantial evidence indicated that, among the clostridial proteins, only D-proline reductase and the third protein factor were needed for this reaction.

The site of Na+-dependent activation in the respiratory chain of the marine bacterium, Vibrio alginolyticus, was investigated. The respiratory chain system contained ubiquinones (Q), menaquinones (MK), cytochromes b(560), c(553), d(630), and o(560). The membrane-bound and partially purified NADH dehydrogenase was stimulated 2- to 3-fold by the addition of 0.2 M Na+ or K+ and no specific requirement for Na+ was observed in this reaction step. The cytochrome oxidase showed no requirement for monovalent cations. The respiratory activity (NADH oxidase) of the membrane was lost on removal of the quinones, and the reincorporation of authentic Q-10 or MK-4 restored the activity. The rate of MK-4 reduction by NADH (menaquinone reductase) as measured using MK-4 incorporated membrane was activated by Na+, but only slightly by K+. The apparent Ka for Na+ was 78 mM for both menaguinone reductase and NADH oxidase. The requirement for Na+ of menaquinone reductase was greatly reduced in the presence of 0.2 M K+. Ubiquinone reductase as measured by using Q-10 incorporated membrane was also activated more effectively by Na+ than by K+. These results strongly suggested that the site of Na+-dependent activation in the respiratory chain of marine V. alginolyticus was at the step of NADH; quinone oxidoreductase.

The NADH dehydrogenase of the Escherichia coli respiratory chain has been identified by the following properties: (a) its location in membrane vesicles; (b) its inhibition by AMP in a fashion similar to that of the NADH oxidase; (c) its specificity for NADH, but not NADPH, with the same Km for NADH as that of the NADH oxidase; (d) its sensitivity when membrane-bound to inhibition by dicoumarol, rotenone, and 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide, which are also inhibitors for the NADH oxidase. The NADH-dehydrogenase of the cytosol fraction (assayed as NADH-dichlorphenolindophenol reductase activity) differs substantially from the membrane-bound activity both in substrate specificity and in the inhibitors of the reaction. The respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase was extracted from isolated membrane vesicle preparations by solubilization in Triton X-100, and was purified in buffers containing that detergent. The purification employed chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, precipitation by 30% ethanol, and chromatography on hydroxyalapatite and DEAE-agarose. The most highly purified preparations of the enzyme were homogeneous in migration on polyacrylamide gels containing Triton X-100, at pH 9.5, where one band accounted for all of the protein and activity. Electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecul sulfate showed 1 band of molecular weight 38,000, which accounted for over 75% of the protein on the gel. Because of requirements for either Triton X-100 or phospholipid for activity of the purified enzyme, it is difficult to estimate the level of purification achieved over isolated membrane vesicles. However, we estimate that the enzyme was purified some 30-fold over membrane vesicles, or some 300-fold over whole cells.
