The bulk of NADH kinase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was recovered in the mitochondrial fraction prepared from spheroplasts. Most of the NADH kinase was localized in the inner membrane fraction, which was separated from other mitochondrial components by the combined swelling, shrinking, and sonication procedure. Treatment of mitoplasts with antiserum against the NADH kinase caused inactivation of the enzyme. On the contrary, no influence was observed upon the same treatment of intact mitochondria. p-Chloromercuribenzoate and eosin-5-maleimide inactivated the enzyme without affecting the matrix ATPase. The NADH kinase was enzymatically iodinated in mitoplasts, but not in the intact mitochondria. These results support the conclusion that NADH kinase is localized and functions at the intermembrane space side of the mitochondrial inner membrane. It is evident that the NADH kinase is encoded by nuclear gene(s) because it is synthesized in the presence of chloramphenicol or acriflavine, and a significant amount of the enzyme was detected in mitochondrial DNA-deficient mutants.

An ion-pair, reverse-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography method of assay was developed and used in a series of rate studies carried out with the enzyme chicken liver NAD+ kinase (ATP:NAD+ 2'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.23). Complete separation of all products and reactants was achieved within 15 min. ATP, NAD+, ADP, and NADP+ were monitored at 260 nm as they eluted from a Zorbax (Dupont) ODS (4.6 X 250-mm) column using an acetonitrile and 0.01 mM NH4(H2PO4)/0.005 M tetrabutylammonium phosphate (pH 7.0) gradient. The enzyme shows a marked preference for ATP (and dATP) and Mg2+ (or Mn2+) relative to other trinucleotides and divalent metal ions. It exhibits residual adenylate kinase and ATPase activity, but no NADH kinase activity. When polyphosphate replaced ATP, NADP+ production dropped to 2.5%. The addition of Ca2+ and/or bovine brain calmodulin did not significantly enhance the rate of NADP+ production.
