We report the electron transfer properties of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex of the respiratory chain (Complex I) in mitochondria of cells derived from LHON patients with two different mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The mutations occur in the mtDNA genes coding for the ND1 and ND4 subunits of Complex I. The ND1/3460 mutation exhibits 80% reduction in rotenone-sensitive and ubiquinone-dependent electron transfer activity, whereas the proximal NADH dehydrogenase activity of the Complex is unaffected. This is in accordance with the proposal that the ND1 subunit interacts with rotenone and ubiquinone. In contrast, the ND4/11778 mutation had no effect on electron transfer activity of the Complex in inner mitochondrial membrane preparations; also Km for NADH and NADH dehydrogenase activity were unaffected. However, in isolated mitochondria with the ND4 mutation, the rate of oxidation of NAD-linked substrates, but not of succinate, was significantly decreased. This suggests that the ND4 subunit might be involved in specific aggregation of NADH-dependent dehydrogenases and Complex I, which may result in fast ('solid state') electron transfer from the former to the latter.

1-Methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), the neurotoxic bioactivation product of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), interrupts mitochondrial electron transfer at the NADH dehydrogenase-ubiquinone junction, as do the respiratory chain inhibitors rotenone, piericidin A and barbiturates. Proof that these classical respiratory chain inhibitors and MPP+ react at the same site in the complex NADH dehydrogenase molecule has been difficult to obtain because none of these compounds bind covalently to the target. The 4'-alkyl derivatives of MPP+ inhibit NADH oxidation in submitochondrial particles at much lower concentrations than does MPP+ itself, but still dissociate on washing the membrane preparations, with consequent re-activation of the enzyme. The MPP+ analogues with short alkyl chains prevent the binding of 14C-labelled piericidin A to the membrane and thus must act at the same site, but analogues with alkyl chains longer than heptyl do not prevent binding of [14C]piericidin.

Exposure of isolated mouse hepatocytes to a toxic concentration of acetaminophen (5 mM) resulted in damage to the mitochondrial respiratory apparatus. The nature of this damage was investigated by measuring respiration stimulated by site-specific substrates in digitonin-permeabilized hepatocytes after acetaminophen exposure. Respiration stimulated by succinate at energy-coupling site 2 was most sensitive to inhibition and was decreased by 47% after 1 h. Respiration supported by NADH-linked substrates (site 1) was also decreased but to a lesser extent, while there was no decrease in the rate of ascorbate + N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD)-supported respiration (site 3). The loss of mitochondrial respiratory function was accompanied by a decrease in ATP levels and ATP/ADP ratios in the cytosolic compartment and was preceded by a loss of reduced glutathione in both the cytosol and mitochondria. All these effects occurred well before the loss of cell membrane integrity. The putative toxic metabolite of acetaminophen, N-acetyl-p-benzoquinonimine (NAPQI), produced a similar pattern of respiratory dysfunction in isolated hepatic mitochondria. Respiration stimulated by succinate- and NADH-linked substrates was very sensitive to 50 microM NAPQI, while ascorbate + TMPD-supported respiration was unaffected. The interaction between NAPQI and the respiratory chain was further investigated using submitochondrial particles. Succinate dehydrogenase (associated with respiratory complex II) was found to be very sensitive to NAPQI, while NADH dehydrogenase (respiratory complex I) was inhibited to a lesser extent. Our results indicate that a loss of the ability to utilize succinate- and NADH-linked substrates due to attack of the respiratory chain by NAPQI causes a disruption of energy homeostasis in acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.

Nigrostriatal cell death in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinson's disease results from the inhibition of mitochondrial respiration by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+). MPP+ blocks electron flow from NADH dehydrogenase to coenzyme Q at or near the same site as do rotenone and piericidin and protects against binding of and loss of activity due to these inhibitors. The 4'-analogs of MPP+ showed increasing affinity for the site with increasing length of alkyl chain, with the lowest Ki, for 4'-heptyl-MPP+, being 6 microM. The 4'-analogs compete with rotenone for the binding site in a concentration-dependent manner. They protect the activity of the enzyme from inhibition by piericidin in parallel to preventing its binding, indicating that the analogs and piericidin bind at the same inhibitory site(s). The optimum protection, however, was afforded by 4'-propyl-MPP+. The lesser protection by the more lipophilic MPP+ analogs with longer alkyl chains may involve a different orientation in the hydrophobic cleft, allowing rotenone and piericidin to still bind even when the pyridinium cation is in a position to interrupt electron flow from NADH to coenzyme Q.

A lambda gt10 bovine brain and a lambda gt11 bovine heart cDNA library were screened with oligonucleotide probes corresponding to partial protein sequences directly determined from the isolated 51-kDa subunit of the bovine respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase. Clones were isolated that encode a protein of 464 amino acids containing all the 11 partial tryptic peptide sequences determined from the 51-kDa subunit. The size and amino acid composition of this protein agree with those determined for the purified 51-kDa subunit. Furthermore, this protein contains a putative NADH-binding domain, a possible FMN-binding site, and a putative binding site for an iron-sulfur cluster. The above evidence indicates that the cloned protein is the 51-kDa subunit or its precursor. A search for sequence similarity with proteins in the Protein Identification Resource data base has revealed that the 51-kDa subunit has 32% amino acid sequence identity with a major portion of the alpha subunit of the soluble NAD(+)-reducing hydrogenase from Alcaligenes eutrophus. In particular, there are three segments of high sequence similarity (70-88%) between the two proteins which correspond to the three ligand-binding sites.

The NADH-quinone oxidoreductases of the bacterial respiratory chain could be divided in two groups depending on whether they bear an energy-coupling site. Those enzymes that bear the coupling site are designated as NADH dehydrogenase 1 (NDH-1) and those that do not as NADH dehydrogenase 2 (NDH-2). All members of the NDH-1 group analyzed to date are multiple polypeptide enzymes and contain noncovalently bound FMN and iron-sulfur clusters as prosthetic groups. The NADH-ubiquinone-1 reductase activities of NDH-1 are inhibited by rotenone, capsaicin, and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The NDH-2 enzymes are generally single polypeptides and contain noncovalently bound FAD and no iron-sulfur clusters. The enzymatic activities of the NDH-2 are not affected by the above inhibitors for NDH-1. Recently, it has been found that both of these types of the NADH-quinone oxidoreductase are present in a single strain of bacteria. The significance of the occurrence of these two types of enzymes in a single organism has been discussed in this review.

Ischemia and reperfusion causes severe mitochondrial damage, including swelling and deposits of hydroxyapatite crystals in the mitochondrial matrix. These crystals are indicative of a massive influx of Ca2+ into the mitochondrial matrix occurring during reoxygenation. We have observed that mitochondria isolated from rat hearts after 90 minutes of anoxia followed by reoxygenation, show a specific inhibition in the electron transport chain between NADH dehydrogenase and ubiquinone in addition to becoming uncoupled (unable to generate ATP). This inhibition is associated with an increased H2O2 formation at the NADH dehydrogenase level in the presence of NADH dependent substrates. Control rat mitochondria exposed for 15 minutes to high Ca2+ (200 nmol/mg protein) also become uncoupled and electron transport inhibited between NADH dehydrogenase and ubiquinone, a lesion similar to that observed in post-ischemic mitochondria. This Ca(2+)-dependent effect is time dependent and may be partially prevented by albumin, suggesting that it may be due to phospholipase A2 activation, releasing fatty acids, leading to both inhibition of electron transport and uncoupling. Addition of arachidonic or linoleic acids to control rat heart mitochondria, inhibits electron transport between Complex I and III. These results are consistent with the following hypothesis: during ischemia, the intracellular energy content drops severely, affecting the cytoplasic concentration of ions such as Na+ and Ca2+. Upon reoxygenation, the mitochondrion is the only organelle capable of eliminating the excess cytoplasmic Ca2+ through an electrogenic process requiring oxygen (the low ATP concentration makes other ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport systems non-operational).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

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]. When the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex was irradiated by UV light in the presence of [adenylate-32P]NAD, radioactivity was incorporated exclusively into one of three polypeptides of Mr approximately 50,000. Similar results were obtained when [adenylate-32P]NADH was used. The labeling of the Mr 50,000 polypeptide was diminished when UV irradiation of the enzyme with [adenylate-32P]NAD was performed in the presence of NADH, but not in the presence of NADP(H). The labeled polypeptide was isolated by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and was shown to cross-react with antiserum to the NADH-binding subunit (Mr = 51,000) of bovine NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase. Its amino acid composition was also very similar to that of the bovine NADH-binding subunit. These chemical and immunological results indicate that the Mr 50,000 polypeptide is an NADH-binding subunit of the Paracoccus NADH dehydrogenase complex.

The NADH-ubiquinone reductase activity of the respiratory chains of several organisms was inhibited by capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin, which are the pungent principles of red pepper. This inhibition was correlated with the presence of an energy transducing site in this segment of the respiratory chain. Where the NADH-quinone oxidoreductase segment involved an energy coupling site (e.g., in Paracoccus denitrificans, Escherichia coli, and Thermus thermophilus HB-8 membranes and bovine heart mitochondria), capsaicin acted as an inhibitor of ubiquinone reduction by NADH. In contrast, where this energy coupling site was absent (e.g., in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria and Bacillus subtilis membranes), there was no inhibition of NADH-ubiquinone reductase activity by capsaicin. The capsaicin inhibition of Paracoccus membranes was reversed by washing the membranes with medium containing bovine serum albumin. In the E. coli and Paracoccus membranes and bovine submitochondrial particles, capsaicin acted as a noncompetitive inhibitor for ubiquinone-1 at lower concentrations of ubiquinone-1 (less than 20 microM) and as a competitive inhibitor at higher concentrations of ubiquinone-1 (greater than 50 microM). In addition, the concentrations of capsaicin required for 50% inhibition of NADH oxidase activity of bovine submitochondrial particles were increased when ubiquinone-10 was added to the particles. The mechanism by which capsaicin inhibits the energy-transducing NADH-quinone oxidoreductase is discussed.

Five distinct low potential iron-sulfur clusters have been identified potentiometrically in the membrane particles from Thermus thermophilus HB-8. Three of these clusters (designated as [N-1H]T, [N-2H]T, and [N-3]T) exhibit the following midpoint redox potentials and g values (Em8.0 = -274 mV, gx,y,z = 1.93, 1.94, 2.02), (Em8.0 = -304 mV, gx,y,z = 1.89, 1.95, 2.04), and (Em8.0 = -289 mV, gx,y,z = 1.80, 1.83, 2.06), respectively. These clusters, one binuclear and two tetranuclear, have been shown to be components of the energy coupled NADH-menaquinone oxidoreductase complex (NADH dh I). They are reducible by NADH in the piericidin A-inhibited aerobic membrane particles as well as in the purified NADH dh I complex. Two additional very low potential iron-sulfur clusters (one binuclear, [N-1L]T, and one tetranuclear, [N-2L]T) were observed in membrane particles. These clusters possess the following physiochemical properties (Em8.0 = -418 mV, gx,y,z = 1.93, 19.5, 2.02) and (Em8.0 = -437 mV, gx,y,z = 1.89, 1.95, 2.04), respectively. No high potential tetranuclear cluster equivalent to the mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster [N-2]B was found in this bacterial system. In membrane particles isolated from T. thermophilus HB-8 cells, four different semiquinone species have been identified based on their redox midpoint potentials [Em9(Q/QH2) = 40, -100, -160, -300 mV] and sensitivity to the quinone analogue inhibitor, 2-heptyl-4-hydroxy quinoline-N-oxide. Of these semiquinone species the -100 mV component has been suggested to be part of the NADH dehydrogenase. Piericidin A sensitive delta psi formation has been demonstrated to be coupled to the NADH-MQ1 oxidoreductase in membrane vesicles of T. thermophilus HB-8.
