We examined the activity of heme synthesis when ferrochelatase purified from rat liver mitochondria was incubated with ferric chloride and mesoporphyrin IX as substrates in the absence of reducing reagents. In the presence of the NADH dehydrogenase-rich fraction and NAD(P)H, mesoheme was synthesized; the addition of FMN or FAD markedly enhanced the activity. These results indicate that the NAD(P) H-oxidizing system reduces ferric ion to ferrous ion. This ferrous ion is then utilized for heme synthesis by ferrochelatase. The effect of lead on NAD(P)H-dependent heme synthesis was also examined. Lead reduced NAD(P)H-dependent heme synthesis by 50% at 10(-5) M, but had no effect when ferrous ion was used as substrate. Zn-Porphyrin synthesis was not changed in the presence of Pb2+ at 10(-5) M. Thus, heme synthesis from ferric ion was more susceptible to Pb2+ than heme synthesis from ferrous ion.

A membrane-associated NADH dehydrogenase from beef neutrophils was purified to homogeneity, using detergent (cholate plus Triton X-100) extraction and chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, agarose-hexane-NAD, and hydroxylapatite. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed an apparent subunit molecular weight of 17,500, but the enzyme was highly aggregated (Mr greater than 450,000) in nondenaturing gels containing 0.1% Triton X-100. The protein band in nondenaturing gels was also stained for activity using NADH and nitro blue tetrazolium. The enzyme showed greatest electron acceptor activity with ferricyanide (100%), followed by cytochrome c (3.5%), dichloroindophenol (2.7%), and cytochrome b5 (0.34%). No activity was seen with oxygen. The Km values for NADH and ferricyanide were 18 and 9.5 microM, respectively, and NAD+ was a weak competitive inhibitor (Ki = 118 microM). No activity was seen with NADPH. No effects were seen with mitochondrial respiratory inhibitors such as azide, cyanide, or rotenone, but p-chloromercuribenzoate was strongly inhibitory and N-ethylmaleimide was weakly inhibitory. No free flavin was detectable in enzyme preparations. Based upon kinetic, physical, and inhibition properties, this NADH dehydrogenase differs from those previously described in microsomes and erythrocyte plasma membrane.

The cationic fluorescent dyes, berberines, have been observed to inhibit NAD-linked respiration in rat liver mitochondria. Low concentrations inhibit electron transport in the NAD-ubiquinone span after penetration into mitochondria. More hydrophobic alkyl derivatives proved to be stronger inhibitors showing more rapid onset of inhibition. The inhibition was totally dependent on the energization of the membrane; however, the addition of a hydrophobic anion stimulated the inhibition effects in uncoupled mitochondria. Substantially higher concentrations of berberines are needed for the inhibition of the oxidation of succinate. The excess of dye interacting with surface dipoles in the energized state can inhibit the energy transduction through the complex bc1. On the basis of the difference in the rate of fluorescence response when berberines are added to coupled mitochondria and the corresponding inhibition effects, the presence minimally of two binding sites was suggested. The dye bound on the outer surface is highly fluorescent and inhibits the energy transduction if added in excess. The remaining dye interacting with NADH dehydrogenase does not fluoresce. The accumulation of alkylberberine in mitochondria results in additional effects in the region of cytochrome b the nature of which is not fully understood.

The purified mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase enzyme has been shown to catalyze a rapid [4B-3H] NADH-H2O exchange reaction. When the enzyme is subjected to a single freeze-thaw cycle there is a complete loss of NADH dehydrogenation without a measurable decrease in the [4B-3H] NADH-H2O exchange. Complete loss of the [4B-3H] NADH-H2O exchange follows brief exposure to ultraviolet photoirradiation. The differential sensitivity of the water exchange reaction and the dehydrogenase activity suggests a direct involvement of the enzymes flavin cofactor in the catalysis of the [4B-3H] NADH-H2O exchange. Arylazido-beta-alanyl NAD+ (A3'-0-[3-[N-4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino] propionyl]NAD+) is shown to be a potent photodependent inhibitor of the [4B-3H] NADH-H2O exchange activity following photoirradiation with visible light. This is consistent with the observed photodependent inhibition of the dehydrogenase activity by this photoprobe (Chen, S. and Guillory, R.J. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 8318-8323).

The fluorescence signal of flavoproteins of rat liver mitochondria was investigated to determine the respective contributions of the various flavoenzymes. About 50% of the overall signal were found to be NAD-linked and caused by alpha-lipoamide dehydrogenase flavin (Em7.4 = -283 mV). Roughly 25% were due to a flavoprotein reducible in a non-NAD-linked reaction. This fluorescent flavoenzyme (Em7.4 = -52 mV) has been tentatively identified as a flavoprotein of the fatty-acid-oxidizing system, most probably the electron transfer flavoprotein. The remaining 25% of the signal are accounted for by flavoenzymes which are reducible by dithionite only. These flavoenzymes were not involved in the flavoprotein fluorescence alterations accompanying changes in electron flow through the respiratory chain. Contributions of other mitochondrial flavoproteins such as succinate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, proline dehydrogenase, and choline oxidase, to the overall flavin fluorescence signal of isolated rat liver mitochondria can be neglected.

Submitochondrial particles prepared from liver and skeletal muscle of control and iron-deficient rats were examined for cytochrome content and for both energy-independent and energy-conserving functions. Liver submitochondrial particles appear quite resistant to iron deficiency with cytochrome content and electron-transferring or energy-conserving functions maintained at a level of 85% or better of normal. Iron-deficient skeletal muscle submitochondrial particles, in contrast, have decreased cytochrome content and only 15-20% of the normal capacity for oxidation through either complex I (NADH dehydrogenase) or complex II (succinate dehydrogenase). Energy-linked reactions which involve substrate oxidation/reduction (succinate----NAD+ reversed electron flow and succinate-driven energy-dependent transhydrogenation) are likewise markedly decreased, while ATP-driven energy-dependent transhydrogenation and mitochondrial ATPase are normal. Our data support the concept that iron deficiency leads to decreased electron-carrying capacity of iron-containing mitochondrial enzymes, with skeletal muscle being much more susceptible than liver, but that the mitochondria are otherwise normal with regard to energy conservation.

Monodehydroascorbate reductase (EC 1.6.5.4) was purified from cucumber fruit to a homogeneous state as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The cucumber monodehydroascorbate reductase was a monomer with a molecular weight of 47,000. It contained 1 mol of FAD/mol of enzyme which was reduced by NAD(P)H and reoxidized by monodehydroascorbate. The enzyme had an exposed thiol group whose blockage with thiol reagents inhibited the electron transfer from NAD(P)H to the enzyme FAD. Both NADH and NADPH served as electron donors with Km values of 4.6 and 23 microM, respectively, and Vmax of 200 mol of NADH and 150 mol of NADPH oxidized mol of enzyme-1 s-1. The Km for monodehydroascorbate was 1.4 microM. The amino acid composition of the enzyme is presented. In addition to monodehydroascorbate, the enzyme catalyzed the reduction of ferricyanide and 2,6-dichloroindophenol but showed little reactivity with calf liver cytochrome b5 and horse heart cytochrome c. The kinetic data suggested a ping-pong mechanism for the monodehydroascorbate reductase-catalyzed reaction. Cucumber monodehydroascorbate reductase occurs in soluble form and can be distinguished from NADPH dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase, DT diaphorase, microsome-bound NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase, and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase by its molecular weight, amino acid composition, and specificity of electron acceptors and donors.

1. With reference to the post-operative dysfunction of the liver observed after halothane anaesthesia, the effects of the anaesthetic on some metabolic functions were studied in the isolated perfused rat liver. Oxygen uptake, glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and urea synthesis were affected by halothane at a concentration (2.5% of the gas phase) within the range used in clinical anaesthesia. 2. At this concentration of halothane uptake of oxygen was inhibited in livers from both fed and starved rats. 3. In livers from fed rats there was a 16-fold increase in lactate production. This was accompanied by a fivefold decrease in the tissue content of 2-oxoglutarate and a more than twofold decrease in citrate. The calculated [free NAD(+)]/[free NADH] ratio in both cytoplasm and mitochondria was lower in the halothane-exposed livers than in controls. 4. In livers of starved rats the rate of gluconeogenesis from lactate was decreased by halothane to 30% of the control rate. 5. Halothane inhibited gluconeogenesis from alanine and propionate to the same extent as from lactate, whereas glucose formation from dihydroxyacetone, glycerol, fructose and sorbitol was relatively unaffected. 6. During gluconeogenesis from 10mm-lactate the tissue content of ATP was decreased by 50%, glutamate by 50% and 2-oxoglutarate was decreased eightfold in the halothane-exposed livers. 7. Halothane decreased urea synthesis in the presence of 10mm-NH(4)Cl and 2mm-ornithine to 15% of the control rate. 8. The inhibitions of gluconeogenesis and urea synthesis were completely abolished within 15min of withdrawal of the anaesthetic. 9. The stimulation of uptake of oxygen brought about by the addition of lactate or precursors of urea was abolished by halothane. 10. Effects on gluconeogenesis similar to those of halothane occurred in livers exposed to the anaesthetic methoxyflurane, although normal rates were not restored on withdrawal of the drug. Other anaesthetic agents tested (ketamine-HCl and trichloroethylene) decreased gluconeogenesis to 66% of the control rate. 11. The inhibitory effects of halothane are consistent with an interference at the stage of the NADH dehydrogenase of the electron-transport chain.

1. The midpoint potentials of the various iron-sulphur centres in Site I were determined at different pH values by the technique of redox potentiometry. An interesting feature is the pH-dependence of Centre N-2, the highest potential component of the NADH dehydrogenase segment of the respiratory chain. 2. The apparent midpoint potentials of Centre N-2 (NADH dehydrogenase) and S-1 (succinate dehydrogenase) and their pH-dependence was also determined by using the succinate/fumarate couple. Again Centre N-2 is pH-dependent in midpoint potential, and Centre S-1 is not. The results obtained by titrating with the succinate/fumarate couple are in quantitative agreement with those obtained for these centres by redox potentiometry. 3. Oxidation-reduction titrations of iron-sulphur centres with the couple NADH/NAD+ and an analogue APADH/APAD+ in the presence of rotenone gave results substantially different from those obtained by redox potentiometry; these differences may be due to the mechanism of action of NADH dehydrogenase and its specific interaction with NADH. 5. The addition of ATP to an NAD+/NADH-poised system induces an uncoupler-sensitive oxidation of Centre N-4.

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.
