Treatment of submitochondrial particles (ETP) with trypsin at 0 degrees destroyed NADPH leads to NAD (or 3-acetylpyridine adenine dinucleotide, AcPyAD) transhydrogenase activity. NADH oxidase activity was unaffected; NADPH oxidase and NADH leads to AcPyAD transhydrogenase activities were diminished by less than 10%. When ETP was incubated with trypsin at 30 degrees, NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase activity was rapidly lost, NADPH oxidase activity was slowly destroyed, but NADH oxidase activity remained intact. The reduction pattern by NADPH, NADPH + NAD, and NADH of chromophores absorbing at 475 minus 510 nm (flavin and iron-sulfur centers) in complex I (NADH-ubiquinone reductase) or ETP treated with trypsin at 0 degrees also indicated specific destruction of transhydrogenase activity. The sensitivity of the NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase reaction to trypsin suggested the involvement of susceptible arginyl residues in the enzyme. Arginyl residues are considered to be positively charged binding sites for anionic substrates and ligands in many enzymes. Treatment of ETP with the specific arginine-binding reagent, butanedione, inhibited transhydrogenation from NADPH leads to NAD (or AcPyAD). It had no effect on NADH oxidation, and inhibited NADPH oxidation and NADH leads to AcPyAD transhydrogenation by only 10 to 15% even after 30 to 60 min incubation of ETP with butanedione. The inhibition of NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenation was diminished considerably when butanedione was added to ETP in the presence of NAD or NADP. When both NAD and NADP were present, the butanedione effect was completely abolished, thus suggesting the possible presence of arginyl residues at the nucleotide binding site of the NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenase enzyme. Under conditions that transhydrogenation from NADPH to NAD was completely inhibited by trypsin or butanedione, NADPH oxidation rate was larger than or equal to 220 nmol min-1 mg-1 ETP protein at pH 6.0 and 30 degrees. The above results establish that in the respiratory chain of beef-heart mitochondria NADH oxidation, NADPH oxidation, and NADPH leads to NAD transhydrogenation are independent reactions.

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.

Reduction of the chromophores of mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone reductase by NADPH reaches only 50% of the extent of reduction by NADH, monitored at 450 nm. This effect is due to autoxidation of an enzyme component at a higher rate than its reduction by NADPH.

1. Both NADH and NADPH supported the oxidation of adrenaline to adrenochrome in bovine heart submitochondrial particles. The reaction was completely inhibited in the presence of superoxide dismutase, suggesting that superoxide anions (O(2) (-)) are responsible for the oxidation. The optimal pH of the reaction with NADPH was at pH7.5, whereas that with NADH was at pH9.0. The reaction was inhibited by treatment of the preparation with p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and stimulated by treatment with rotenone. Antimycin A and cyanide stimulated the reaction to the same extent as rotenone. The NADPH-dependent reaction was inhibited by inorganic salts at high concentrations, whereas the NADH-dependent reaction was stimulated. 2. Production of O(2) (-) by NADH-ubiquinone reductase preparation (Complex I) with NADH or NADPH as an electron donor was assayed by measuring the formation of adrenochrome or the reduction of acetylated cytochrome c which does not react with the respiratory-chain components. p-Hydroxymercuribenzoate inhibited the reaction and rotenone stimulated the reaction. The effects of pH and inorganic salts at high concentrations on the NADH- and NADPH-dependent reactions of Complex I were essentially similar to those on the reactions of submitochondrial particles. 3. These findings suggest that a region between a mercurialsensitive site and the rotenone-sensitive site of the respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase is largely responsible for the NADH- and NADPH-dependent O(2) (-) production by the mitochondrial inner membranes.

Preparations of NADH-ubiquinone reductase from bovine heart mitochondria (Complex I) were shown to contain at least 16 polypeptides by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. High-molecular-weight soluble NADH dehydrogenase prepared from Triton X-100 extracts of submitochondrial particles [Baugh & King (1972) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 49, 1165-1173] was similar to Complex I in its polypeptide composition. 3. Solubilization of Complex I by phospholipase A treatment and subsequent sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation did not alter the polypeptide composition. 4. Lysophosphatidylcholine treatment of Complex I caused some selective solubilization of a polypeptide of mol.wt. 33000 previosuly postulated to be the transmembrane component of Complex I in the mitochondrial membrane [Ragan (1975) in Energy Transducing Membranes: Structure, Function and Reconstitution (Bennun, Bacila & Najjar, eds.), Junk, The Hague, in the press]. 5. Chaotropic resolution of Complex I caused solubilization of polypeptides of molecular weights 75000, 53000, 29000, 26000 and 15500 and traces of others in the 10000-20000-mol.wt.range. 6. The major components of the iron-protein fraction from chaotropic resolution had molecular weights of 75000, 53000 and 29000, whereas the flavoprotein contained polypeptides of molecular weights 53000 and 26000 in a 1:1 molar ratio. 7. Iodination of Complex I by lactoperoxidase indicated that the water-soluble polypeptides released by chaotropic resolution, in particular those of the flavoprotein fraction, were largely buried in the intact Complex. 8. The polypeptides of molecular weights 75000, 53000, 42000, 39000, 33000, 29000 and 26000 were present in 1:2:1:1:1:1:1 molar proportions. The two subunits of molecular weight 53000 are probably non-identical.

The electron transfer complexes, succinate: ubiquinone reductase, ubiquinone: cytochrome c reductase, and cytochrome c: O2 oxidase were isolated from the mitochondrial membranes of Neurospora crassa by the following steps. Modification of the contents of the complexes in mitochondria by growing cells on chloramphenicol; solubilisation of the complexes by Triton X-100; affinity chromatography on immobilized cytochrome c and ion exchange and gel chromatography. Ubiquinone reductase was obtained in a monomeric form (Mr approximately 130 000) consisting of a flavin subunit (Mr 72 000) an iron-sulfur subunit (Mr 28 000) and a cytochrome b subunit (Mr probably 14 000). Cytochrome c reductase was obtained in a dimeric form (Mr approximately 550 000), the monomeric unit comprising the cytochromes b (Mr each 30 000), a cytochrome c1 (Mr 31 000), the iron-sulfur subunit (Mr 25 000), and six subunits without known prosthetic groups (Mr 9000, 11 000, 14 000, 45 000, 45 000, and 52 000). Cytochrome c oxidase was also isolated in a dimeric form (Mr approximately 320 000) comprising two copies each of seven subunits (Mr 9000, 12 000, 14 000, 18 000, 21 000, 29 000, and 40 000). The complexes were essentially free of phospholipid. Each bound one micelle of Triton X-100 (Mr approximately 90 000). After isolation, the bound Triton X-100 could be replaced by other nonionic detergents such as: alkylphenyl polyoxyethylene ethers, alkyl polyoxyethylene ethers and acyl polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters.

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.

This paper presents data on two sisters with a mitochondrial myopathy characterised by weakness, marked exercise intolerance and a fluctuating lactic acidaemia. Both patients also experienced episodes of increased weakness which could be brought on by unaccustomed activity, going without food or by taking small quantities of alcohol. Metabolic studies during exercise showed a marked and sudden rise in blood lactate and pyruvate levels. Biochemical studies in one case showed that mitochondrial respiratory rates were markedly decreased with all NAD-linked substrates tested but were normal with succinate and with TMPD + ascorbate. The mitochondrial cytochrome components were normal as determined by low temperature spectroscopy and the addition of uncoupler did not enhance state 3 respiratory rates utilising NAD-linked substrates. It was concluded, therefore, that the mitochondrial lesion was located at the level of the NADH-CoQ reductase complex.

The enzymic activities NADH-ubiquinone reductase, succinate-ubiquinone reductase and ubiquinol oxidase were evaluated in beef heart mitochondria in presence of short ubiquinone homologs. Preliminar data obtained indicate that short chain homologs, less lipophilic than natural ubiquinone do not reach the reoxidation site in absence of endogenous ubiquinone.

X-band electron-paramagnetic-resonance spectroscopy at 4.2--77K combined with measurements of oxidation-reduction potential was used to identify iron--sulphur centres in Arum maculatum (cuckoo-pint) mitochondria. In the oxidized state a signal with a derivative maximum at g = 2.02 was assigned to succinate dehydrogenase centre S-3. Unreduced particles showed additional signals at g = 2.04 and 1.98 (at 9.2 GHz), which may be due to a spin-spin interaction. In the reduced state a prominent signal at g = 1.93 and 2.02 was resolved into at least three components that could be assigned to centres S-1 and S-2 of succinate dehydrogenase (midpoint potentials -7 and -240 mV respectively at pH 7.2) and a small amount of centre N-1b (e'o= -240 mV) of NADH-ubiquinone reductase. In addition, changes in line shape around -10 mV indicated the presence of a fourth component in this signal. The latter was more readily reduced by NADH than by succinate, suggesting that it might be associated with the external NADH dehydrogenase. The iron-sulphur centres of NADH-ubiquinone reductase were present in an unusually low concentration, indicating that the alternative, non-phosphorylating, NADH dehydrogenase containing a low number of iron-sulphur centres may be responsible for most of the high rate of oxidation of NADH.
