The systemic fungicide carboxin (5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxanilide) at 100 mum inhibited succinate cytochrome c reductase in mitochondria from Ustilago maydis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It did not have any effect on reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) cytochrome c reductase. Succinate coenzyme Q reductase was also inhibited, but NADH coenzyme Q reductase was not. When dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP) was used as the terminal acceptor of electrons from the oxidation of succinate, carboxin was very effective in inhibiting succinate-DCIP reductase. Carboxin was inhibitory to succinic dehydrogenase assayed with phenazine methosulfate plus DCIP when intact mitochondria were used as the enzyme source but not when solubilized enzyme was used. The main site of action of carboxin, therefore, appears to lie between succinate and coenzyme Q. The dioxide analogue of carboxin was also effective in inhibiting succinate-cytochrome c reductase, succinate-coenzyme Q reductase, or succinate-DCIP reductase, whereas the monoxide analogue was less effective in inhibiting these enzymes.

1. An NADH-ferricyanide reductase activity has been isolated from the respiratory chain of Torulopsis utilis by using detergents. The isolated enzyme contains non-haem iron, acid-labile sulphide and FMN in the molar proportions 27.5:28.4:1. The preparation is free of FAD and largely free of cytochrome. 2. The enzyme catalyses ferricyanide reduction by NADPH at about 1% of the rate with NADH, and reacts poorly with acceptors other than ferricyanide. The rates of reduction of some acceptors are, as percentages of the rate with ferricyanide: menadione, 0.35%; lipoate, 0.01%; cytochrome c, 0.065%; dichlorophenolindophenol, 0.35%; ubiquinone-1, 0.08%. 3. Several properties of submitochondrial particles of T. utilis (non-haem iron, acid-labile sulphide, FMN and an NADH-reducible electron-paramagnetic-resonance signal) were found to co-purify with the NADH-ferricyanide reductase activity. Thus about 70% of the FMN and, within the limits of accuracy of the experiments, 100% of the non-haem iron and acid-labile sulphide of submitochondrial particles derived from T. utilis cells grown under conditions of glycerol limitation (but relatively low iron availability) can be attributed to the NADH-ferricyanide reductase. 4. It was also shown that the component of submitochondrial particles specifically bleached at 460nm by NADH [species 1 of Ragan & Garland (1971)] co-purifies with the NADH-ferricyanide reductase. 5. This successful purification of an NADH dehydrogenase from T. utilis forms a starting point for investigating the molecular properties of phenotypically modified mitochondrial NADH oxidation pathways that lack energy conservation between NADH and the cytochromes.

Submitochondrial particles from bovine heart in which NADH dehydrogenase is reduced by either addition of NADH and rotenone or by reversed electron transfer generate 0.9 +/- 0.1 nmol of O2-/min per mg of protein at pH 7.4 and at 30 degrees C. When NADH is used as substrate, rotenone, antimycin and cyanide increase O2- production. In NADH- and antimycin-supplemented submitochondrial particles, rotenone has a biphasic effect: it increases O2- production at the NADH dehydrogenase and it inhibits O2- production at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. The generation of O2- by the rotenone, the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide rho-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone and oligomycin at concentrations similar to those required to inhibit energy-dependent succinate-NAD reductase. Cyanide did not affect O2- generation at the NADH dehydrogenase, but inhibited O2- production at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. Production of O2- at the NADH dehydrogenase is about 50% of the O2- generation but the ubiquinone-cytochrome b area at pH 7.4. Additivity of the two mitochondrial sites of O2- generation was observed over the pH range from 7.0 to 8.8. AN O2- -dependent autocatalytic process that requires NADH, submitochondrial particles and adrenaline is described.

The specific activity of HMG-CoA reductase, the major rate-limiting enzyme in the sterol biosynthetic pathway, declined linearly with increasing cell density in four different lines of mammalian cell cultures. As expected, this caused the rates of sterol synthesis from [14C]acetate to decline in a parallel manner. The decrease in reductase activity in the dense cultures was also correlated with decreased incorporation of [14C]acetate into fatty acids and [3H]thymidine into DNA. In contrast, the activities of two enzymes, NADH dehydrogenase and 5'-nucleotidase, which are not involved in lipid synthesis, were independent of changes in cell density. The simplest explanation for these data is tht HMG-CoA reductase and the synthesis of sterol and fatty acids are regulated in concordance with the rate of cell growth and proliferation.

Ischemic myocardium was produced by occluding the left circumflex coronary artery in anesthetized dogs. Autolyzed myocardium was produced by incubating transmural samples of canine left ventricle at 37 degrees C. Tissue pH was recorded continuously in each model using a microcombination pH electrode impaled into the midmyocardium. The activities of the five mitochondrial inner membrane enzyme complexes of electron transport and coupled oxidative phosphorylation were assayed as a function of time of ischemia or autolysis. While the activities of complex II (succinate-CoQ reductase) and IV (cytochrome c oxidase) were completely stable, that of complex I (NADH-CoQ reductase) decreased markedly, but largely only after 20 min of ischemia or autolysis. At 20 min and beyond, the decrease in the activity of complex I paralleled closely the decrease in whole mitochondrial oxygen uptake with NAD-linked substrates in both models. The activity of complex III (CoQH2-c reductase) decreased at a more gradual rate during ischemia or autolysis, and its rate of decrease paralleled that of succinate-supported oxygen uptake. The activity of complex V (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase) decreased most rapidly (by 40% in only 5 min of autolysis) but nearly leveled off beyond 20 min in the two models. A strikingly similar pattern of differential enzyme lability was observed in isolated control mitochondria incubated at lowered pH values. The results demonstrate 1) differential enzyme lability within the mitochondrial inner membrane, 2) a connection between severity of acidosis and the degree of enzyme activity loss, and 3) the usefulness of simple tissue autolysis as an analogue of in situ myocardial ischemia.

Novel hydroxynaphthoquinones have been shown to be potent and selective inhibitors of mitochondrial electron transport in the protozoan Eimeria tenella, inhibiting at concentrations of 10(-10) to 10(-11)M. The primary site of electron transport inhibition has been localized to the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase span of the respiratory chain, whereas a secondary site of inhibition occurs in the NADH- and succinate-ubiquinone reductase complexes. Inhibition at the primary site is selective for the E. tenella enzyme; inhibition at the secondary sites is comparable in both E. tenella and chick (Gallus gallus) liver mitochondria. Hydroxynaphthoquinone inhibition of chick liver succinate-cyto-chrome c reductase was fully reversible by addition of the exogenous ubiquinone-2 analogue, 6-decyl-2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone; inhibition of the corresponding E. tenella enzyme was not reversed by this ubiquinone. E. tenella lines made resistant to the anticoccidial agents decoquinate or clopidol showed no cross-resistance to the hydroxynaphthoquinones, either at the level of electron transport or in vivo.

Ca2+-dependent K+ transport and plasma membrane NADH dehydrogenase activities have been studied in several 'high-K+' (human, rabbit and guinea pig) and 'low-K+' (dog, cat and sheep) erythrocytes. All the species except sheep showed Ca2+-dependent K+ transport. NADH-ferricyanide reductase was detected in all the species and showed positive correlation with the flavin contents of the membranes. NADH-cytochrome c reductase was very low or absent in dog, sheep and guinea pig membranes. No correlation was found between NADH dehydrogenase and Ca2+-dependent K+ channel activities in the species studied. Nor were any of the above activities correlated with (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity.

Stimulation of the rates of NAD(P)H oxidation, superoxide generation, and hydrogen peroxide formation by three anthracenedione antineoplastic agents in the presence of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, NADH dehydrogenase, or rabbit hepatic microsomes was studied and the results compared with those obtained for the anthracyclines Adriamycin and daunorubicin. In all cases the anthracenediones, including mitoxantrone and ametantrone, were significantly (5- to 20-fold) less effective than the anthracyclines in stimulating NAD(P)H oxidation, superoxide formation, or hydrogen peroxide production. Of the three anthracenediones studied, the ring-monohydroxylated compound showed the greatest activity followed by the ring-dihydroxylated derivative (mitoxantrone). In contrast, the non-ring-hydroxylated anthracenedione (ametantrone) was a relatively ineffective electron acceptor and inhibited the reduction of more effective acceptors such as Adriamycin. Michaelis-Menten kinetic constants were determined by analysis of the rates of NADPH oxidation. NADP+ and 2'-AMP inhibited the reduction of the ring-hydroxylated anthracenediones and anthracyclines, demonstrating the enzymatic nature of the reaction. The non-ring-hydroxylated anthracenedione inhibited the reduction of Adriamycin by both P-450 reductase and NADH dehydrogenase with 50% inhibition achieved at approximately 300 microM. Thus, there appears to exist a structural relationship between anthracenedione ring hydroxylation and metabolic activation. These results also suggest that the relative inability of the anthracenediones to function as artificial electron acceptors in comparison to the anthracyclines may be correlated with diminished anthracenedione cardiotoxicity.

The NADH:ubiquinone, but not the NADH:ferricyanide, reductase activity of mitochondrial complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) is inhibited by incubation of the enzyme at pH 6.0 and 0 degree C with ethoxyformic anhydride (EFA), and the inhibition is partially reversed by subsequent incubation of EFA-treated complex I with hydroxylamine. These results and spectral changes of EFA-treated complex I in the u.v. region are consistent with modification of essential histidyl or tyrosyl residues between the primary NADH dehydrogenase and the site of ubiquinone reduction. Treatment of complex I with EFA in the presence of high concentrations of Seconal or Demerol did not protect against EFA inactivation, suggesting that the site of EFA modification may not be the same as the inhibiton sites of Seconal and Demerol. However, the presence of NADH during incubation of complex I with EFA greatly enhanced the inhibition rate, indicating that the reduced conformation of complex I is more susceptible to attack by EFA.

In isolated rat liver mitochondria, respiration was competitively inhibited by medium chain length (C8 to C13) dicarboxylic acids to different extents: the higher the number of carbon atoms up to C12, the greater the inhibition. In particular, experiments on submitochondrial particles showed that the competitive inhibition concerned the following enzymes: NADH dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase and reduced ubiquinone: cytochrome c oxido-reductase. These results tend to confirm the suggestion that the melanocytotoxic effect of dicarboxylic acids, which are also competitive inhibitors of tyrosinase, may be primarily due to an antimitochondrial effect rather than being tyrosinase-dependent.
