Both the external oxidation of NADH and NADPH in intact potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Bintje) tuber mitochondria and the rotenone-insensitive internal oxidation of NADPH by inside-out submitochondrial particles were dependent on Ca2+. The stimulation was not due to increased permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Neither the membrane potential nor the latencies of NAD(+)-dependent and NADP(+)-dependent malate dehydrogenases were affected by the addition of Ca2+. The pH dependence and kinetics of Ca(2+)-dependent NADPH oxidation by inside-out submitochondrial particles were studied using three different electron acceptors: O2, duroquinone and ferricyanide. Ca2+ increased the activity with all acceptors with a maximum at neutral pH and an additional minor peak at pH 5.8 with O2 and duroquinone. Without Ca2+, the activity was maximal around pH 6. The Km for NADPH was decreased fourfold with ferricyanide and duroquinone, and twofold with O2 as acceptor, upon addition of Ca2+. The Vmax was not changed with ferricyanide as acceptor, but increased twofold with both duroquinone and O2. Half-maximal stimulation of the NADPH oxidation was found at 3 microM free Ca2+ with both O2 and duroquinone as acceptors. This is the first report of a membrane-bound enzyme inside the inner mitochondrial membrane which is directly dependent on micromolar concentrations of Ca2+. Mersalyl and dicumarol, two potent inhibitors of the external NADH dehydrogenase in plant mitochondria, were found to inhibit internal rotenone-insensitive NAD(P)H oxidation, at the same concentrations and in manners very similar to their effects on the external NAD(P)H oxidation.

The gene encoding the yeast mitochondrial rotenone-insensitive internal NADH: ubiquinone-6 oxidoreductase has been sequenced. The DNA sequence indicates the presence of an open reading frame of 1539 bp predicted to encode a protein of 513 amino acid residues (57.2 kDa). The NADH dehydrogenase is synthesized as a precursor protein containing a signal sequence of 26 residues. In vitro import experiments show that the precursor NADH dehydrogenase is cleaved to the mature size by the matrix processing peptidase. Both cleavage and translocation across the mitochondrial membrane(s) are dependent on the membrane potential component of the proton-motive force. Comparison of the protein sequence of the yeast NADH dehydrogenase with the data bank indicates that the enzyme from yeast is homologous to the NADH dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli (22.2% identical residues). Both NADH dehydrogenases contain in the central part of the protein a sequence predicted to fold into a beta alpha beta structure involved in the binding of NADH or FAD(H2). Various aspects of the protein structure are discussed.

Low concentrations of NAD+ inhibit the NADH: acceptor reductase reactions catalyzed by soluble NADH dehydrogenase from bovine heart mitochondria. The degree of incomplete inhibition of the enzyme depends on the nature and concentration of artificial electron acceptors and is manifested only at low concentrations of the latter. Marked inhibition was demonstrated for the 2.6-dichlorophenolindophenol-, ferricyanide- and O2-reductase reactions, being weakly pronounced during the measurement of the NADH: cytochrome c reductase activity. The inhibition of the above reactions by oxidized NAD+ isn't competitive towards NADH. A kinetic scheme is proposed, which postulates NADH: acceptor reductase reactions occurrence via two mechanisms, namely, a ping-pong mechanism and oxidation of the product-enzyme complex by the acceptor. It was shown that low concentrations of NAD+ also inhibit the NADH oxidase reaction catalyzed by complex I.

Two related forms of the respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (NADH:ubiquinone reductase or complex I) are synthesized in the mitochondria of Neurospora crassa. Normally growing cells make a large form that consists of 25 subunits encoded by nuclear DNA and six to seven subunits encoded by mitochondrial DNA. Cells grown in the presence of chloramphenicol, however, make a smaller form comprising only 13 subunits, all encoded by nuclear DNA. When the large enzyme is dissected by chaotropic agents (such as NaBr), all those subunits of the large form that are missing in the small form can be isolated as a distinct, so-called hydrophobic fragment. The small enzyme and the hydrophobic fragment make up, with regard to their redox groups, subunit composition and function, two complementary parts of the large-form NADH dehydrogenase. Averaging of electron microscope images of single particles of the large enzyme was carried out, revealing an unusual L-shaped structure with two domains or "arms" arranged at right angles. The hydrophobic fragment obtained by the NaBr treatment corresponds in size and appearance to one of these arms. A three-dimensional reconstruction from images of negatively stained membrane crystals of the large-form NADH dehydrogenase shows a peripheral domain, protruding from the membrane, with weak unresolved density within the membrane. This peripheral domain was removed by washing the crystals in situ with 2 M-NaBr, exposing a large membrane-buried domain, which was reconstructed in three dimensions. A three-dimensional reconstruction of the small enzyme from negatively stained membrane crystals, also described here, shows only a peripheral domain. These results suggest that the membrane protruding arm of the large form corresponds to the small enzyme, whereas the arm lying within the membrane can be identified as the hydrophobic fragment. The two parts of NADH dehydrogenase that can be defined by the separate genetic origin of (most of) their subunits, their independent assembly, and their distinct contributions to the electron pathway can thus be assigned to the two arms of the L-shaped complex I.

The control exerted in vivo by mitochondrial functions on the dynamics of glycolysis was investigated in starved yeast cells that were metabolizing glucose semianaerobically. Glycolytic oscillations were triggered after a pulse of glucose by inhibition of mitochondrial respiration with KCN, myxothiazol and antimycin A or in mutants in the bc1 complex (ubiquinol:cytochrome c reductase) that were largely deficient in respiratory capacity. Inhibition of the adenine nucleotide translocator by preincubation with bongkrekic acid also triggered a train of damped sinusoidal oscillations after glucose addition. The oscillations consisted of cycles of reduction and oxidation of the intracellular pool of nicotinamide nucleotides with periods of 45 s to 1 min and amplitudes of 0.8 mM or lower. Preincubation with the uncoupler carbonyl cyamide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) annihilated cyanide-induced oscillations of NAD(P)H. Evidence for de-energization of mitochondrial membranes in vivo was obtained by mitochondrial staining with dimethylaminostyryl-methyl-pyridiniumiodine (DASPMI) of starved cells. The low rates of NADH reoxidation shown by respiratory mutants and the FCCP-treated X2180 strain open up the possibility that mitochondrial dehydrogenases also control glycolytic oscillations. Low rates of cytosolic NADH reoxidation induced by pyrazole, an inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase, were also associated with the disappearance of glycolytic oscillations. From experimental evidence and model calculations we conclude that the modulation of the levels of cytosolic ATP by mitochondrial functions in turn modulates the approach of the dynamic behavior of glycolysis to an oscillatory domain. The mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase and the glycolytic steps associated with NADH reoxidation downstream from pyruvate appear to provide another control level of glycolysis dynamics in vivo.

We have recently described the isolation of a mitochondrial rotenone-insensitive NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae [de Vries, S. & Grivell, L. A. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 176, 377-384]. We now report the isolation of the nuclear gene encoding this single-subunit enzyme. Null mutants have been constructed by means of one-step gene disruption. Oxygen-uptake experiments, performed with mitochondria isolated from the mutant cells, showed that this NADH dehydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation of NADH generated inside the mitochondrion. Inactivation of this NADH dehydrogenase does not affect growth on glucose and ethanol, but growth on lactate, pyruvate and acetate is impaired or absent. This phenotype is discussed in terms of the interplay between different metabolic pathways in yeast.

The NADH dehydrogenase complex isolated from Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of approximately 10 unlike polypeptides and contains noncovalently bound FMN, non-heme iron, and acid-labile sulfide [Yagi, T. (1986) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 250, 302-311]. The NADH-binding subunit (Mr = 50,000) of this enzyme complex was identified by direct photoaffinity labeling with [32P]NADH [Yagi, T., & Dinh, T.M. (1990) Biochemistry 29, 5515-5520]. Primers were synthesized on the basis of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of this polypeptide, and these primers were used to synthesize an oligonucleotide probe by the polymerase chain reaction. This probe was utilized to isolate the gene encoding the NADH-binding subunit from a genomic library of P. denitrificans. The nucleotide sequence of the gene and the deduced amino acid sequence of the entire NADH-binding subunit were determined. The NADH-binding subunit has 431 amino acid residues and a calculated molecular weight of 47,191. The encoded protein contains a putative NAD(H)-binding and an iron-sulfur cluster-binding consensus sequence. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Paracoccus NADH-binding subunit shows remarkable similarity to the alpha subunit of the NAD-linked hydrogenase of Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. When partial DNA sequencing of the regions surrounding the gene encoding the NADH-binding subunit was carried out, sequences homologous to the 24-, 49-, and 75-kDa polypeptides of bovine complex I were detected, suggesting that the structural genes of the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex constitute a gene cluster.

The NADH dehydrogenase complex isolated from Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of approximately 10 unlike polypeptides [Yagi, T. (1986) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 250, 302-311]. Structural genes encoding the subunits of this enzyme complex constitute at least one gene cluster [Xu, X., Matsuno-Yagi, A., & Yagi, T. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 6422-6428]. The 25-kDa subunit (NQO2), which has been isolated from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, is a polypeptide of this enzyme complex. The partial N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid composition of the NQO2 subunit have been determined. On the basis of the amino acid sequence, the NQO2 gene was found to be located 1.7 kilobase pairs upstream of the gene for NADH-binding subunit (NQO1). The complete nucleotide sequence of the NQO2 gene was determined. It is composed of 717 base pairs and codes for 239 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular weight of 26,122. The NQO2 subunit is homologous to the Mr 24,000 subunit of the mammalian mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase which bears an electron paramagnetic resonance-visible binuclear iron-sulfur cluster (probably cluster N1b). Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of the Paracoccus NQO2 subunit with those of its mammalian counterparts suggests putative binding sites for the iron-sulfur cluster. In addition, nucleotide sequencing shows the presence of two unidentified reading frames between the NQO1 and NQO2 genes. These are designated URF1 and URF2 and are composed of 261 and 642 base pairs, respectively. The possible function of the protein coded for the URF2 is discussed.

The patient, a 52-year-old male, noticed abnormalities on walking at about 20 years of age, followed by slowly progressive muscle weakness of arms and neck. The family history was negative. He showed muscular atrophy and weakness with a preferential involvement of the scapular, arms and peroneal muscles. Deep tendon reflexes were absent. He had a limited range of motion in the spine, but the onset was unclear. Creatine kinase (CK) was elevated (324 IU/L) and the EMG study showed myogenic pattern. Muscle biopsy was obtained from the biceps brachii muscle; on NADH dehydrogenase stain, there was subsarcolemmal increase in the oxidative enzyme activity showing "lobulated fiber" mostly seen in type 1 fibers. On electron-microscopy, the sub-sarcoplasmic areas which had high NADH activity, contained many mitochondria and glycogen particles. However, iodine-glycogen complex spectrum analysis pattern and debranching enzyme activity were normal. CT scan revealed low density in the paravertebral muscles, suggesting degeneration. This is a rare type of scapuloperoneal atrophy different from Emery-Dreifuss syndrome, rigid spine syndrome and FSH type muscular dystrophy.

Probimane, dl-bis (4-morpholin-methyl 3,5-dioxopipweazin-1-yl) propane first synthesized in China, is a dioxopiperazin compound with antineoplastic, antimetastatic and radiopotentiating activities. In order to evaluate the mechanisms of cardiotoxicity protective action of probimane, the free radical induced by doxorubicin were analysed by electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. Our studies showed that doxorubicin stimulated the formation of semiquinone free radicals in the rat heart homogenate and heart cell mitochondria systems, and probimane inhibited the free radical formation in both systems, with the dose-dependent and time-dependent responses. The inhibitory rates of doxorubicin free radical formation in rat heart homogenate system by probimane 0.6 mmol.L-1 at time of 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min were 44.6%, 43.0%, 51.5%, 74.3%, 68.1%, 56.1% and 39.9% respectively. The inhibitory rates of semiquinone free radical formation in mitochondria system by probimane at the concentration of 0.02, 0.06, 0.6, 1.2 and 2.4 mmol.L-1 were 17.07%, 29.87%, 63.95%, 64.62% and 83.64%, respectively. Probimane had no effect on NADH2, but inhibited NADH dehydrogenase activity at higher concentration.
