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.

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 respiratory chain NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NADH dehydrogenase or Complex I) of mitochondria comprises some 30 different subunits, and one FMN and 4 or 5 iron-sulfur clusters as internal redox groups. The bacterial glucose dehydrogenase, which oxidizes glucose to gluconolactone in the periplasmatic space and transfers the electrons to ubiquinone, is a single polypeptide chain with pyrolloquinoline quinone as the only redox group. We report here that the two different enzymes have the same ubiquinone binding domain motif and we discuss the predicted membrane folding of this domain with regard to its role in the proton translocating function of the two enzymes.

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.

Several NAD(P)H-dependent ferri-reductase activities were detected in sub-cellular extracts of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Some were induced in cells grown under iron-deficient conditions. At least two cytosolic iron-reducing enzymes having different substrate specificities could contribute to iron assimilation in vivo. One enzyme was purified to homogeneity: it is a flavoprotein (FAD) of 40 kDa that uses NADPH as electron donor and Fe(III)-EDTA as artificial electron acceptor. Isolated mitochondria reduced a variety of ferric chelates, probably via an 'external' NADH dehydrogenase, but not the siderophore ferrioxamine B. A plasma membrane-bound ferri-reductase system functioning with NADPH as electron donor and FMN as prosthetic group was purified 100-fold from isolated plasma membranes. This system may be involved in the reductive uptake of iron in vivo.

A catalytic component of the bovine mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex (Complex I) is a soluble NADH dehydrogenase iron-sulfur flavoprotein (FP). FP is composed of three subunits of Mr 51,000, 24,000, and 9,000, and contains FMN and two iron-sulfur clusters. Previous studies by others with the use of various chemical probes had suggested that, except for an access for NADH to the 51-kDa subunit, the FP polypeptides are buried within Complex I and shielded from the medium. In the present study, monospecific antibodies were raised to each of the three FP subunits, and used in conjunction with Complex I, submitochondrial particles (SMP), mitoplasts, and intact mitochondria as sources of antigens. Results of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and 125I-protein A labeling experiments indicated that epitopes from the 51-, 24-, and 9-kDa subunits of FP are exposed to the medium in Complex I and SMP, but not in mitoplasts and mitochondria. Appropriate enzymatic assays showed that none of the antibodies inhibited the NADH dehydrogenase activity of isolated FP or the NADH oxidase activity of SMP. These results have been discussed in relation to the structure of Neurospora Complex I deduced from membrane crystals of the isolated enzyme complex by Leonard et al. [K. Leonard, H. Haiker, and H. Weiss (1987) J. Mol. Biol. 194, 277-286].

The 24-kDa subunit of mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone reductase (complex I) is an iron-sulfur protein that is present in the flavoprotein or NADH dehydrogenase II subcomplex. It is a nuclear gene product and is imported into the organelle. A group of human patients with mitochondrial myopathy have been shown to have reduced levels of subunits of complex I in skeletal muscle mitochondria, and in one patient the 24-kDa subunit appears to be absent (Schapira et al., 1988). To investigate the genetic basis of this type of myopathy, cDNA clones have been isolated from a bovine library derived from heart and liver mRNA by hybridization with two mixtures of 48 synthetic oligonucleotides 17 bases in length that were designed on the basis of known protein sequences. The recombinant DNA sequence has been determined, and it encodes a precursor of the mature 24-kDa protein. The N terminus of the mature protein is preceded by a presequence of 32 amino acids that has properties that are characteristic of mitochondrial import sequences. The sequence of the mature protein deduced from the cDNA contains a segment of nine amino acids that was not determined in an earlier partial protein sequence analysis. The bovine clone has been employed as a hybridization probe to identify cDNA clones of the human homologue of the 24-kDa protein. Its DNA sequence has also been determined, and it codes for a protein that is closely related to the bovine protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

From a high-salt extract of the purified thylakoid membrane, an 18-kD protein was detected. This protein was translated by the chloroplast ribosomes and could form a stable DNA-protein complex with a cloned chloroplast DNA replicative origin [Nie, Z.Q., Chang, D.Y., and Wu, M. (1987) Mol. Gen. Genet. 209, 265-269]. In this paper, the 18-kD protein is linked to frxB, a chloroplast-encoded, ferredoxin-type, iron-sulfur protein, by N-terminal microsequencing of the purified protein and computer analysis. The identification is further supported empirically by the fact that the electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of the protein indicate the presence of iron-sulfur clusters. A polyclonal antibody raised against a synthetic pentadecameric peptide with amino acid sequence corresponds to the highly conserved region of the frxB protein and reacts strongly and specifically with the 18-kD protein band in protein gel blot analyses. The 18-kD iron-sulfur protein is found to be related to a subunit of the respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase by its cross-reaction with a polyclonal antibody raised against highly purified NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase, a key enzyme of the respiratory chain. These data are consistent with chlororespiration, and, thus, possible implication of chlororespiration in regulating the initiation of chloroplast DNA replication is discussed.

1. We have isolated a cDNA encoding the 24 kDa subunit, an iron-sulfur protein, of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase from a human fibroblast cDNA library by colony hybridization using a rat 24 kDa subunit cDNA as a probe. 2. The presequence predicted from the human cDNA sequence is typical of precursors to mitochondrial proteins in a high content of basic residues and in the absence of acidic ones. 3. The mature form of the human 24 kDa subunit shows 95% homology with its rat counterpart. Five cysteine residues are conserved among human, rat and bovine; four of these are expected to be involved in the binding of a binuclear iron-sulfur cluster.

The quinonoid anthracycline, doxorubicin (Adriamycin) is a potent anti-neoplastic agent whose clinical use is limited by severe cardiotoxicity. Mitochondrial damage is a major component of this cardiotoxicity, and rival oxidative and non-oxidative mechanisms for inactivation of the electron transport chain have been proposed. Using bovine heart submitochondrial preparations (SMP) we have now found that both oxidative and non-oxidative mechanisms occur in vitro, depending solely on the concentration of doxorubicin employed. Redox cycling of doxorubicin by Complex I of the respiratory chain (which generates doxorubicin semiquinone radicals, O2-, H2O2, and .OH) caused a 70% decrease in the Vmax. for NADH dehydrogenase during 15 min incubation of SMP, and an 80% decrease in NADH oxidase activity after 2 h incubation. This inactivation required only 25-50 microM-doxorubicin and represents true oxidative damage, since both NADH (for doxorubicin redox cycling) and oxygen were obligatory participants. The damage appears localized between the NADH dehydrogenase flavin (site of doxorubicin reduction) and iron-sulphur centre N-1. Succinate dehydrogenase, succinate oxidase, and cytochrome c oxidase activities were strongly inhibited by higher doxorubicin concentrations, but this phenomenon did not involve doxorubicin redox cycling (no NADH or oxygen requirement). Doxorubicin concentrations of 0.5 mM were required for 50% decreases in these activities, except for cytochrome c oxidase which was only 30% inhibited following incubation with even 1.0 mM-doxorubicin. Our results indicate that low concentrations of doxorubicin (50 microM or less) can catalyse a site-specific oxidative damage to the NADH oxidation pathway. In contrast, ten-fold higher doxorubicin concentrations (or more) are required for non-oxidative inactivation of the electron transport chain; probably via binding to cardiolipin and/or generalized membrane chaotropic effects. The development of agents to block doxorubicin toxicity in vivo will clearly require detailed clinical studies of doxorubicin uptake in the heart.
