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.

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 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.

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.
