The steady-state kinetics of the NADH dehydrogenase activity of the three-subunit flavo-iron-sulfur protein (FP, Type II NADH dehydrogenase) in the presence of the one-electron acceptor hexammineruthenium(III) (HAR) were studied. The maximal catalytic activities of FP with HAR as electron acceptor calculated on the basis of FMN content were found to be approximately the same for the submitochondrial particles, Complex I and purified FP. This result shows that the protein structure responsible for the primary NADH oxidation by FP is not altered during the isolation procedure and the lower (compared with Complex I) catalytic capacity of the enzyme previously reported was due to the use of inefficient electron acceptors. Simple assay procedures for NADH dehydrogenase activity with HAR as the electron acceptor are described. The maximal activity at saturating concentrations of HAR was insensitive to added guanidine, whereas at fixed concentration of the electron acceptor, guanidine stimulated oxidation of low concentrations of NADH and inhibited the reaction at saturating NADH. The inhibitory effect of guanidine was competitive with HAR. The double-reciprocal plots 1/v vs. 1/[NADH] at various HAR concentrations gave a series of straight lines intercepting on the ordinate. The plots 1/v vs. 1/[HAR] at various NADH concentrations gave a series of straight lines intercepting in the fourth quadrant. The kinetics support the mechanism of the overall reaction where NADH is oxidized by the protein-Ru(NH3)3+(6) complex in which positively charged electron acceptor is bound at the specific site close to FMN, thus stabilizing the flavosemiquinone intermediate.

The proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) of Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of at least 14 dissimilar subunits which are designated NQO1-14 and contains one noncovalently bound FMN and at least five EPR-visible iron-sulfur clusters (N1a, N1b, N2, N3, and N4) as prosthetic groups. Comparison of the deduced primary structures of the subunits with consensus sequences for the cofactor binding sites has predicted that NQO1, NQO2, NQO3, NQO9, and probably NQO6 subunits are cofactor binding subunits. Previously, we have reported that the NQO2 (25 kDa) subunit was overexpressed as a water-soluble protein in Escherichia coli and was found to ligate a single [2Fe-2S] cluster with rhombic symmetry (gx,y,z = 1.92, 1.95, and 2.00) (Yano, T., Sled', V.D., Ohnishi, T., and Yagi, T. (1994) Biochemistry 33, 494-499). In the present study, the NQO3 (66 kDa) subunit, which is equivalent to the 75-kDa subunit of bovine heart Complex I, was overexpressed in E. coli. The expressed NQO3 subunit was found predominantly in the cytoplasmic phase and was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography. The chemical analyses and UV-visible and EPR spectroscopic studies showed that the expressed NQO3 subunit contains at least two distinct iron-sulfur clusters: a [2Fe-2S] cluster with axial EPR signals (g perpendicular, parallel = 1.934 and 2.026, and L perpendicular parallel = 1.8 and 3.0 millitesla) and a [4Fe-4S] cluster with rhombic symmetry (gx,y,z = 1.892, 1.928, and 2.063, and Lx,y,z = 2.40, 1.55, and 1.75 millitesla). The midpoint redox potentials of [2Fe-2S] and [4Fe-4S] clusters at pH 8.6 are -472 and -391 mV, respectively. The tetranuclear cluster in the isolated NQO3 subunit is sensitive toward oxidants and converts into [3Fe-4S] form. The assignment of these iron-sulfur clusters to those identified in the P. denitrificans NDH-1 enzyme complex and the possible functional role of the NQO3 subunit is discussed.

The Na(+)-translocating NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase from Vibrio alginolyticus was extracted from the bacterial membranes and purified by ion exchange chromatographic procedures. The enzyme catalyzed NADH oxidation by suitable electron acceptors, e.g. menadione, and the Na+ and NADH-dependent reduction of ubiquinone-1. Four dominant bands and a number of minor bands were visible on SDS-PAGE that could be part of the enzyme complex. Flavin analyses indicated the presence of FAD but no FMN in the purified enzyme. FAD but no FMN were also present in V. alginolyticus membranes. FAD is therefore a prosthetic group of the Na(+)-translocating NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase and FMN is not present in the enzyme. The FAD was copurified with the NADH dehydrogenase. The purified enzyme exhibited an absorption spectrum with a maximum at 450 nm that is typical for a flavoprotein. Upon incubation with NADH this absorption disappeared indicating reduction of the enzyme-bound FAD.

The proton-pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, also called complex I, is the first of the respiratory complexes providing the proton motive force which is essential for the synthesis of ATP. Closely related forms of this complex exist in the mitochondria of eucaryotes and in the plasma membranes of purple bacteria. The minimal structural framework common to the mitochondrial and the bacterial complex is composed of 14 polypeptides with 1 FMN and 6-8 iron-sulfur clusters as prosthetic groups. The mitochondrial complex contains many accessory subunits for which no homologous counterparts exist in the bacterial complex. Genes for 11 of the 14 minimal subunits are also found in the plastidial DNA of plants and in the genome of cyanobacteria. However, genes encoding the 3 subunits of the NADH dehydrogenase part of complex I are apparently missing in these species. The possibility is discussed that chloroplasts and cyanobacteria contain a complex I equipped with a different electron input device. This complex may work as a NAD(P)H: or a ferredoxin:plastoquinone oxidoreductase participating in cyclic electron transport during photosynthesis.

There are multiple routes of NAD(P)H oxidation associated with the inner membrane of plant mitochondria. These are the phosphorylating NADH dehydrogenase, otherwise known as Complex I, and at least four other nonphosphorylating NAD(P)H dehydrogenases. Complex I has been isolated from beetroot, broad bean, and potato mitochondria. It has at least 32 polypeptides associated with it, contains FMN as its prosthetic group, and the purified enzyme is sensitive to inhibition by rotenone. In terms of subunit complexity it appears similar to the mammalian and fungal enzymes. Some polypeptides display antigenic similarity to subunits from Neurospora crassa but little cross-reactivity to antisera raised against some beef heart complex I subunits. Plant complex I contains eight mitochondrial encoded subunits with the remainder being nuclear-encoded. Two of these mitochondrial-encoded subunits, nad7 and nad9, show homology to corresponding nuclear-encoded subunits in Neurospora crassa (49 and 30 kDa, respectively) and beef heart CI (49 and 31 kDa, respectively), suggesting a marked difference between the assembly of CI from plants and the fungal and mammalian enzymes. As well as complex I, plant mitochondria contain several type-II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases which mediate rotenone-insensitive oxidation of cytosolic and matrix NADH. We have isolated three of these dehydrogenases from beetroot mitochondria which are similar to enzymes isolated from potato mitochondria. Two of these enzymes are single polypeptides (32 and 55 kDa) and appear similar to those found in maize mitochondria, which have been localized to the outside of the inner membrane. The third enzyme appears to be a dimer comprised of two identical 43-kDa subunits. It is this enzyme that we believe contributes to rotenone-insensitive oxidation of matrix NADH. In addition to this type-II dehydrogenases, several observations suggest the presence of a smaller form of CI present in plant mitochondria which is insensitive to rotenone inhibition. We propose that this represents the peripheral arm of CI in plant mitochondria and may participate in nonphosphorylating matrix NADH oxidation.

This study reports the expression of the flavoprotein (FP) subcomplex of the proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) from Paracoccus denitrificans, which is composed of the NQO1 (50 kDa) and the NQO2 (25 kDa) subunits. The two subunits are co-expressed in Escherichia coli using a double expression plasmid system. The expressed subunits form a water-soluble heterodimer complex with 1:1 stoichiometry. The expressed complex contained one [2Fe 2S] cluster but almost no FMN or [4Fe 4S] cluster. The two latter prosthetic groups could be partially reconstituted with FMN, Na2S, and (NH4)2Fe(SO4)2 in vitro under anaerobic conditions. The reconstituted FP subcomplex showed EPR signals from two distinct species of iron-sulfur cluster. One resonance transition originates from a [2Fe-2S] cluster with g values of gx,y,z = 1.92, 1.95, and 2.00 and slow spin relaxation, which was tentatively assigned to the cluster N1a. These EPR properties are very similar to those reported for the NQO2 subunit expressed alone (Yano, T., Sled', V. D., Ohnishi, T., and Yagi, T. (1994) Biochemistry 33, 494-499). The other originates from a [4Fe 4S] cluster with g values of gx,y, z = 1.87, 1.94, and 2.04 and fast relaxing behavior, which are reminiscent of the cluster N3 in the membrane bound enzyme complex. After reconstitution with FMN, the FP subcomplex catalyzed electron transfer from NADH and from deamino-NADH to a variety of electron acceptors. The enzymatic properties of the FP subcomplex, reconstituted with FMN and iron-sulfur, correspond to those of the isolated P. denitrificans NADH-dehydrogenase complex.

The proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) of Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of at least 14 unlike subunits and contains one FMN and at least five EPR-detectable iron-sulfur clusters. The 14 subunits are designated NQO1 through NQO14. The expression and partial characterization of the NQO4, -5, and -6 subunits have been performed. The NQO4, -5, and -6 subunits were individually expressed in Escherichia coli. The NQO4 subunit was expressed in both the cytoplasmic phase and membrane fraction, the NQO5 subunit in the cytoplasmic phase only, and the NQO6 subunit in the membrane fraction only. The NQO4 and NQO5 subunits were purified from cytoplasmic phase. Neither subunit contains non-heme iron or acid-labile sulfide, suggesting that the NQO4 or NQO5 subunit is not an iron-sulfur subunit. The antibodies against the NQO4, -5, and -6 subunits cross-reacted with their counterpart subunits in bovine heart complex I. The NQO4, -5, and -6 subunits in membrane-bound P. denitrificans NDH-1 were extracted by treatment at alkaline pH ( > or = 10) or with chaotropes (NaBr, Nal, and urea), suggesting that these subunits are localized in the peripheral part (not in the membrane sector) of the enzyme complex similar to the NQO1, -2, and -3 subunits. In addition, the subunit stoichiometry of NQO1 through -6 of the membrane-bound P. denitrificans NDH-1 has been determined by radioimmunoassays. There is 1 mol each of the NQO1 through -6 subunits per mol of the P. denitrificans NDH-1.

Deficiency of complex I (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) of the mitochondrial respiratory chain may be seen as a pure myopathy or as a neuromuscular disorder at presentation. Efficacy of long- term therapy for these disorders is yet to be established. We report the case of a female patient with complex I deficiency and skeletal myopathy, who has had a sustained clinical response to riboflavin during 3 years of therapy. Molecular studies found no mutations in the putative flavin mononucleotide binding site in the 51 kd subunit of complex I, but a T-to-C transition at nucleotide 3250 in the mitochondrial DNA tRNA(Leu(UUR)) gene was identified. This mutation has been reported in one other family in that five members had fatigue with or without muscle weakness. There were also five cases of unexplained infant deaths in that family and two cases in the family reported here. Riboflavin therapy should be attempted in all patients with complex I deficiency when the clinical presentation is one of isolated skeletal myopathy.

The proton-pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase of Escherichia coli is composed of 14 different subunits and contains one FMN and up to nine iron-sulfur clusters as prosthetic groups. By use of salt treatment, the complex can be split into an NADH dehydrogenase fragment, a connecting fragment and a membrane fragment. The water-soluble NADH dehydrogenase fragment has a molecular mass of approximately 170,000 Da and consists of the subunits NuoE, F, and G. The fragment harbors the FMN and probably six iron-sulfur clusters, four of them being observable by EPR spectroscopy. Here, we report that the fully assembled fragment can be overproduced in E. coli when the genes nuoE, F, and G were simultaneously overexpressed with the genes nuoB, C, and D. Furthermore, riboflavin, sodium sulfide, and ferric ammonium citrate have to be added to the culture medium. The fragment was purified from the cytoplasm by means of ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatographic steps. The preparation contains one noncovalently bound FMN per molecule. Two binuclear (N1b and N1c) and two tetranuclear (N3 and N4) iron-sulfur clusters were detected by EPR in the NADH reduced preparation with spectral characteristics identical with those of the corresponding clusters in complex I. The preparation fulfills all prerequisites for crystallization of the fragment.

The steady-state kinetics of the transhydrogenase reaction (the reduction of acetylpyridine adenine dinucleotide (APAD+) by NADH, DD transhydrogenase) catalyzed by bovine heart submitochondrial particles (SMP), purified Complex I, and by the soluble three-subunit NADH dehydrogenase (FP) were studied to assess a number of the Complex I-associated nucleotide-binding sites. Under the conditions where the proton-pumping transhydrogenase (EC 1.6.1.1) was not operating, the DD transhydrogenase activities of SMP and Complex I exhibited complex kinetic pattern: the double reciprocal plots of the velocities were not linear when the substrate concentrations were varied in a wide range. No binary complex (ping-pong) mechanism (as expected for a single substrate-binding site enzyme) was operating within any range of the variable substrates. ADP-ribose, a competitive inhibitor of NADH oxidase, was shown to compete more effectively with NADH (Ki = 40 microM) than with APAD+ (Ki = 150 microM) in the transhydrogenase reaction. FMN redox cycling-dependent, FP catalyzed DD transhydrogenase reaction was shown to proceed through a ternary complex mechanism. The results suggest that Complex I and the simplest catalytically competent fragment derived therefrom (FP) possess more than one nucleotide-binding sites operating in the transhydrogenase reaction.
