Addition of NADH, but not NAD+ or NADPH, to rat liver plasma membranes resulted in the increase of their 5'-nucleotidase activity. NADH-dependent activation of 5'-nucleotidase was significantly suppressed by atebrine, an inhibitor of NADH dehydrogenase of plasma membranes, and completely abolished by 2,4-dinitrophenol (2 X 10(-4)M) and Triton X-100 (2%). Inhibitors of electron transfer in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, rotenone and potassium cyanide, failed to affect 5'-nucleotidase activity in both the presence and absence of NADH. The data obtained give reasons to suggest a redox-dependent mechanism of 5'-nucleotidase activation in rat liver plasma membranes.

The results presented in this paper reveal the existence of three distinct menadione (2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone) reductases in mitochondria: NAD(P)H:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase (D,T-diaphorase), NADPH:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase, and NADH:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase. All three enzymes reduce menadione in a two-electron step directly to the hydroquinone form. NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NADH dehydrogenase) and NAD(P)H azoreductase do not participate significantly in menadione reduction. In mitochondrial extracts, the menadione-induced NAD(P)H oxidation occurs beyond stoichiometric reduction of the quinone and is accompanied by O2 consumption. Benzoquinone is reduced more rapidly than menadione but does not undergo redox cycling. In intact mitochondria, menadione triggers oxidation of intramitochondrial pyridine nucleotides, cyanide-insensitive O2 consumption, and a transient decrease of delta psi. In the presence of intramitochondrial Ca2+, the menadione-induced oxidation of pyridine nucleotides is accompanied by their hydrolysis, and Ca2+ is released from mitochondria. The menadione-induced Ca2+ release leaves mitochondria intact, provided excessive Ca2+ cycling is prevented. In both selenium-deficient and selenium-adequate mitochondria, menadione is equally effective in inducing oxidation of pyridine nucleotides and Ca2+ release. Thus, menadione-induced Ca2+ release is mediated predominantly by enzymatic two-electron reduction of menadione, and not by H2O2 generated by menadione-dependent redox cycling. Our findings argue against D,T-diaphorase being a control device that prevents quinone-dependent oxygen toxicity in mitochondria.

An NADH dehydrogenase complex was isolated from the plasma membranes of aerobically grown Paracoccus denitrificans cells by extraction with NaBr and purification on an NAD-agarose column. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activity of the isolated NADH dehydrogenase complex was about 10 times higher than that of the NaBr extract. The preparation was composed of 10 (6 major and 4 minor) unlike polypeptides, and lacked identifiable components and activities characteristic of other enzyme complexes of the oxidative phosphorylation system. The purified enzyme contained noncovalently bound FMN, nonheme iron, and acid-labile sulfide. The ratio of FMN to nonheme iron to acid-labile sulfide was 1:13 approximately 14:11 approximately 12, suggestive of the presence of multiple iron-sulfur clusters. The isolated NADH dehydrogenase complex cross-reacted with antisera to beef heart mitochondrial complex I and protein fraction derived therefrom, indicating the presence in the Paracoccus enzyme of antigenic sites similar to those in the intact complex I and its iron-sulfur protein and possibly hydrophobic protein fractions.

The physiological role of pyocyanine for Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied. Its synthesis was shown to commence at the retardation growth phase. Pyocyanine was accumulated only in the growth medium. The addition of 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol accepting the reducing equivalents from coenzyme Q and transferring them to cytochrome c inhibited the pigment accumulation. This was indicative of the connection between pyocyanine synthesis and the level of the reducing equivalents in the cells. Pyocyanine did not accept the reducing equivalents from coenzyme Q in the respiratory chain of P. aeruginosa. Only reduced pyridine nucleotides served as substrates for pyocyanine in the reaction of autooxidation. The kinetic parameters of this reaction and the affinity of NADH dehydrogenase for the substrate were measured. The kinetic data were analysed to show that, under the physiological conditions, pyocyanine could not apparently compete with the respiratory chain for the reducing equivalents and hence directly regulate the level of NAD(P)H in P. aeruginosa cells. In order to keep the oxidising activity at a level necessary for the cells, the latter decreased the content of the reducing equivalents either by synthesizing pyocyanine or owing to the activity of cyanide-resistant oxidase. These processes of releasing the reducing equivalents are in a reciprocal relationship.

The yeast Candida parapsilosis possesses two routes of electron transfer from exogenous NAD(P)H to oxygen. Electrons are transferred either to the classical cytochrome pathway at the level of ubiquinone through an NAD(P)H dehydrogenase, or to an alternative pathway at the level of cytochrome c through another NAD(P)H dehydrogenase which is insensitive to antimycin A. Analyses of mitoplasts obtained by digitonin/osmotic shock treatment of mitochondria purified on a sucrose gradient indicated that the NADH and NADPH dehydrogenases serving the alternative route were located on the mitochondrial inner membrane. The dehydrogenases could be differentiated by their pH optima and their sensitivity to amytal, butanedione and mersalyl. No transhydrogenase activity occurred between the dehydrogenases, although NADH oxidation was inhibited by NADP+ and butanedione. Studies of the effect of NADP+ on NADH oxidation showed that the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase had Michaelis-Menten kinetics and was inhibited by NADP+, whereas the alternative NADH dehydrogenase had allosteric properties (NADH is a negative effector and is displaced from its regulatory site by NAD+ or NADP+).

Two types of the NADH-quinone reductase were isolated from Thermus thermophilus HB-8 membranes, by use of the nonionic detergent, dodecyl beta-maltoside, and NAD-agarose affinity, DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, and Superose 6 column chromatography. One of these (NADH dehydrogenase 1) is a complex composed of 10 unlike polypeptides, and the other (NADH dehydrogenase 2) exhibits a single band (Mr 53,000) upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activity of the isolated NADH dehydrogenase 1 was about 14 times higher than that of the dodecyl beta-maltoside extract and partially rotenone sensitive. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activity of the isolated NADH dehydrogenase 2 was about 30-fold as high as that of the dodecyl beta-maltoside extract and rotenone insensitive. The purified NADH dehydrogenase 1 contained noncovalently bound FMN, non-heme iron, and acid-labile sulfide. The ratio of FMN to non-heme iron to acid-labile sulfide was 1:11-12:7-9. The high content of iron and labile sulfide is suggestive of the presence of several iron-sulfur clusters. The purified NADH dehydrogenase 2 contained noncovalently bound FAD and no non-heme iron or acid-labile sulfide. The activities of both NADH dehydrogenases were stable at temperatures of greater than or equal to 80 degrees C. The occurrence of two distinct types of NADH dehydrogenase as a common feature in the membranes of various aerobic bacteria is discussed.

Hepatocyte cytotoxicity caused by substituted benzoquinones was associated with increased cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. p-Benzoquinone-induced hepatotoxicity was enhanced when the hepatocytes were loaded with Ca2+ by preincubation with ATP. A similar order of potency of the substituted benzoquinones in releasing Ca2+ from isolated mitochondria and inducing hepatocyte cytotoxicity was found; in decreasing order, this was 2-Br-, unsubstituted-, 2-CH3-, 2,6-(CH3O)2-, 2,6-(CH3)2-, 2,5-(CH3)2-, 2,3,5-(CH3)3-, and 2,3,5,6-(CH3)4-benzoquinones (duroquinone). The cellular products of quinone metabolism, hydroquinones and glutathione conjugates, did not cause mitochondrial Ca2+ release. Benzoquinone-induced mitochondrial Ca2+ release was preceded by GSH conjugate formation and NAD(P)H oxidation but followed by mitochondrial swelling. With duroquinone, a slow GSH and NADPH oxidation preceded Ca2+ release, but GSH oxidation did not occur with Se-deficient mitochondria lacking glutathione peroxidase activity. Cyanide-insensitive respiration was also observed with duroquinone but not with benzoquinone, suggesting that duroquinone undergoes redox cycling. GSH was depleted by both arylation and oxidation with 2,6-(CH3O)2-, 2,6-(CH3)2-, 2,5(CH3)2-, and 2,3,5-(CH3)3-benzoquinones. Benzoquinone concentrations that totally depleted GSH did not cause Ca2+ release until intramitochondrial NAD(P)H was oxidized. Ca2+ release was also prevented when NAD(P)H generation was stimulated by the presence of isocitrate or 3-hydroxybutyrate. This suggests that mitochondrial Ca2+ release is associated with NAD(P)H oxidation catalyzed by NADH dehydrogenase with benzoquinone or by the glutathione peroxidase-glutathione reductase system with duroquinone.

In the present study we have used beef heart submitochondrial preparations (BH-SMP) to demonstrate that a component of mitochondrial Complex I, probably the NADH dehydrogenase flavin, is the mitochondrial site of anthracycline reduction. During forward electron transport, the anthracyclines doxorubicin (Adriamycin) and daunorubicin acted as one-electron acceptors for BH-SMP (i.e. were reduced to semiquinone radical species) only when NADH was used as substrate; succinate and ascorbate were without effect. Inhibitor experiments (rotenone, amytal, piericidin A) indicated that the anthracycline reduction site lies on the substrate side of ubiquinone. Doxorubicin and daunorubicin semiquinone radicals were readily detected by ESR spectroscopy. Doxorubicin and daunorubicin semiquinone radicals (g congruent to 2.004, signal width congruent to 4.5 G) reacted avidly with molecular oxygen, presumably to produce O2-, to complete the redox cycle. The identification of Complex I as the site of anthracycline reduction was confirmed by studies of ATP-energized reverse electron transport using succinate or ascorbate as substrates, in the presence of antimycin A or KCN respiratory blocks. Doxorubicin and daunorubicin inhibited the reduction of NAD+ to NADH during reverse electron transport. Furthermore, during reverse electron transport in the absence of added NAD+, doxorubicin and daunorubicin addition caused oxygen consumption due to reduction of molecular oxygen (to O2-) by the anthracycline semiquinone radicals. With succinate as electron source both thenoyltrifluoroacetone (an inhibitor of Complex II) and rotenone blocked oxygen consumption, but with ascorbate as electron source only rotenone was an effective inhibitor. NADH oxidation by doxorubicin during BH-SMP forward electron transport had a KM of 99 microM and a Vmax of 30 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 (at pH 7.4 and 23 degrees C); values for daunorubicin were 71 microM and 37 nmol X min-1 X mg-1. Oxygen consumption at pH 7.2 and 37 degrees C exhibited KM values of 65 microM for doxorubicin and 47 microM for daunorubicin, and Vmax values of 116 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 for doxorubicin and 114 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 for daunorubicin. In marked contrast with these results, 5-iminodaunodrubicin (a new anthracycline with diminished cardiotoxic potential) exhibited little or no tendency to undergo reduction, or to redox cycle with BH-SMP. Redox cycling of anthracyclines by mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase is shown, in the accompanying paper (Doroshow, J. H., and Davies, K. J. A. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 3068-3074), to generate O2-, H2O2, and OH which may underlie the cardiotoxicity of these antitumor agents.

Low concentrations of cadmium (3.3-40 microM) inhibited State 3 NADH-linked respiration in rat hepatic mitochondria, but failed to release oligomycin (1 microgram) inhibited State 3 respiration, or to significantly change the State 4 rate. In the presence of succinate, 40 microM cadmium inhibited State 3 respiration by 89%, while concentrations between 3.3 and 13.3 microM stimulated State 4 respiration. Higher concentrations caused marked inhibition. In the presence of succinate, cadmium released oligomycin inhibited State 3 respiration. Cadmium (0.001-1.0 mM) did not stimulate mitochondrial ATPase activity or inhibit ferricyanide reduction, but stimulated NAD+ linked mitochondrial dehydrogenase activities and NADH oxidation. These results indicate that cadmium interacts with either the NADH dehydrogenase complex or other NADH-dependent enzymes and not solely by an uncoupling action.

Though previously described as very low or absent in yeast, we find significant pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenation (NADPH + acetyl pyridine-NAD+----NADP+ + acetyl pyridine-NADH) activity in yeast extracts when assayed at pH 8-9, and describe here the subcellular distribution and separation of the various molecular forms contributing to the total activity in two yeast species. Gentle subcellular fractionation reveals transhydrogenase activity only in the cytosolic fraction of both Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida utilis while intact mitochondria and microsomes are without activity. On sucrose gradient centrifugation, this soluble cytosolic activity proves to be primarily in a high-molecular-weight (greater than 10(6)) band which has salmon-colored fluorescence on uv illumination. Sonication of the particulate subcellular fractions solubilizes substantial transhydrogenase activity from mitochondria of C. utilis (but not from S. cerevisiae) which on sucrose gradients consists of both high (greater than 10(6))- and low-molecular-weight active fractions, each with yellow-green fluorescence. Ammonium sulfate fractionation and sucrose gradient centrifugation of protein solubilized from whole yeast of both species by vigorous homogenization with glass beads confirms the presence and fluorescence of these various molecular weight forms. The relationship of these activities to other enzymatic activities (especially the mitochondrial external NADH dehydrogenase) is discussed.
