Bovine heart soluble F1 ATPase shows ligand dependent changes in subunit accessibility to the protein labelling reagents acetic anhydride and diazonium benzenesulphonic acid. These correlate with changes in the ATPase activity of the enzyme induced by the same ligands. In particular, NAD+ and NADH show concentration dependent effects, the effect of the reduced nucleotide being opposite to that of the oxidised form.

The effect of lonidamine, an antispermatogenic and antitumor drug, on the oxygen consumption, ATPase activity, and redox state of the electron carriers of Ehrlich ascites tumor mitochondria has been studied. Lonidamine inhibits ADP- and uncoupler-stimulated respiration on various NAD- and FAD-linked substrates, but does not affect state 4 respiration. Experiments to determine its site of action showed that lonidamine does not significantly inhibit electron flow through cytochrome oxidase. Electron flow through site 2, the ubiquinone-cytochrome b-cytochrome c1 complex, also was unaffected by lonidamine, which failed to inhibit the oxidation of duroquinol. Moreover, inhibition of electron flow through site 2 was also excluded because of the inability of the N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine bypass to relieve the lonidamine inhibition of the oxidation of pyruvate + malate. The F0F1ATPase activity and vectorial H+ ejection are also unaffected by lonidamine. The inhibition of succinate oxidation by lonidamine was found to take place at a point between succinate and iron-sulfur center S3. Spectroscopic experiments demonstrated that lonidamine inhibits the reduction of mitochondrial NAD+ by pyruvate + malate and other NAD-linked substrates in the transition from state 1 to state 4. However, lonidamine does not inhibit reduction of added NAD+ by submitochondrial vesicles or by soluble purified NAD-linked dehydrogenases. These observations, together with other evidence, suggest that electron transport in tumor mitochondria is inhibited by lonidamine at the dehydrogenase-coenzyme level, particularly when the electron carriers are in a relatively oxidized state and/or when the inner membrane-matrix compartment is in the condensed state. The action of lonidamine in several respects resembles the selective inhibition of electron transport in tumor cells produced by cytotoxic macrophages (D. L. Granger and A. L. Lehninger (1982) J. Cell Biol. 95, 527).

A cell-free system consisting of rat liver mitochondria, liver cytosol, lactate, and the substrates intrinsic to the malate-aspartate shuttle was reconstituted for studies of steady-state substrate fluxes and, more specifically, to evaluate further the mechanism of control of the intra- and extramitochondrial steady states of the free NAD+/NADH ratios. Soluble (F1) ATPase or 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) were added in varying amounts to alter substrate fluxes and the constant energy state of this 'open' metabolizing system. The steady-state redox segregation (1.36 log NAD+/NADH ratio out vs NAD+/NADH in the mitochondrial matrix) was maximally about 3 kcal, and declined together with the membrane potential (delta psi) and log ATP/ADP, which obtain on imposing an increasing energy load on the system. It is concluded that transmembrane movement of reducing equivalents is coupled to electron transfer through delta psi, mediated by the electrogenic exchange of glutamate and aspartate. When delta psi was high (near State 4), delta G redox was approximately the same as that generated without flux of reducing equivalents [E. J. Davis, J. Bremer, and K. E. Akerman (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 2277-2283], suggesting that delta Gredox is in near thermodynamic equilibrium with delta psi. If the steady-state ATP/ADP ratio was altered with an energy load (F1-ATPase), delta Gredox decreased more steeply than delta psi (tetraphenyl phosphonium-sensitive electrode used to measure delta psi). At comparable ranges of ATP/ADP, both delta Gredox and delta psi decreased more steeply with uncoupler than with an external ADP-regenerating system.

The intraperitoneal injection of glucagon or the intravenous infusion of oleic acid provoked a rapid change in the properties of rat liver mitochondrial ATPase. When mitochondria of treated animals were isolated an increase in ATPase activity was observed as well as a modification on the response to activators and inhibitors and to the sulfhydryl reagent N-ethylmaleimide. Sensitivity to the activators dinitrophenol or bicarbonate decreased, whereas the sensitivity to inhibitors KOCN and KSCN increased, and an inhibitory effect of N-ethylmaleimide appeared. These effects gradually disappeared when mitochondrial suspensions were kept at 10 degrees C, and after approximately 5 h ATPase from mitochondria of treated and control animals behaved almost identically. If the oxidizing agent dichlorophenolindophenol was added to the isolated mitochondria the effects induced by glucagon or fatty acids immediately disappeared. The activation caused by the reducing agent dithionite on ATPase activity in mitochondria from control animals did not take place in fresh mitochondria from treated animals; however, dithionite was effective in these latter mitochondria when tested 5 h later after keeping them at 10 degrees C. The intravenous infusion of oleic acid produced a rise in the [NADH]/[NAD+] and [Total flavin]/[FAD] ratios in mitochondria, and values double as those in the controls were observed; these values gradually approached those of the control mitochondria when kept at 10 degrees C; after 24 h these ratios were the same in mitochondrial suspensions from treated and nontreated animals. These results suggest that the modification of the properties of mitochondrial ATPase induced by glucagon or fatty acids might be mediated by a change in the mitochondrial redox state.

The short preincubation of submitochondrial particles with low concentrations of ADP in the presence of Mg2+ results in a complete loss of their ATPase and inosine triphosphatase activities. Other nucleoside diphosphates (IDP and GDP) do not affect the ATPase activity. The ADP-inhibited ATPase can be activated in a time-dependent manner by treatment of submitochondrial particles with the enzyme converting ADP into ATP (phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase). The activaton is a first-order reaction with rate constant 0.2 min-1 at 25 degrees C. The rate constant of activation is increased in the presence of ATP up to 2 min-1, and this increase shows saturation kinetics with Km value equal to that for ATPase reaction itself (10(-4) M at 25 degrees C at pH 8.0). The experimental results obtained are consistent with the model where two alternative pathways of ADP dissociation from the inhibitory site of ATPase exist; one is spontaneous dissociation and the second is ATP-dependent dissociation through the formation of the ternary complex between ADP, the enzyme and ATP. ADP-induced inactivation and ATP-dependent activation of ATPase activity of submitochondrial particles is accompanied by the same directed change of their ability to catalyse the ATP-dependent reverse electron transport from succinate to NAD+. The possible implication of the model suggested is discussed in terms of functional role of the inhibitory high-affinity binding site for ADP in the mitochondrial ATPase.

The ribose-modified nucleotides 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) and TNP-ADP were used to probe the catalytic sites on soluble beef heart mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase (F1). Both compounds were potent competitive inhibitors of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by F1, Ki = 5.5 and 10 nM, respectively, and by submitochondrial particles, Ki (TNP-ATP) = 21 nM. Both compounds also were potent competitive inhibitors of ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation (Ki = 1300 nM). Both analogs inhibited the 32Pi-ATP exchange reaction and the ATP-dependent reduction of NAD+ by succinate, catalyzed by submitochondrial particles. TNP-ATP and TNP-ADP were bound by F1. The presence of two binding sites on the enzyme for TNP-adenine nucleotides was determined by titrations of difference absorbance spectra, of the increase in fluorescence of the analog which occurred upon interaction with protein, and by titrations with the centrifuge column method using 32P-labeled TNP-adenine nucleotides. The first binding site bound the analogs with an affinity too high to be measured. The Kd for analog binding by the second site was 20 to 80 nM. In the presence of Mg2+, the 2 sites were filled with the TNP-ATP at a rate too rapid to be resolved by the procedure used. TNP-[gamma-32P]ATP was hydrolyzed by F1, Km = 0.2 microM, Vmax = 1.1 mol of 32Pi formed/mol of F1/s. It was shown, using the isotope trap technique as well as the inhibitor efrapeptin, that the 2 binding sites for TNP-ATP on F1 are hydrolytic sites.

The effect of the association of gossypol and Lonidamine on the electron transport in Ehrlich ascites tumor mitochondria has been investigated by addition of drugs to isolated mitochondria. The results may be summarized as follows. (1) Low concentrations of gossypol increase the rate of oxygen consumption at the level of three energy-conserving sites of the respiratory chain. Higher concentrations result in an inhibition of oxygen consumption at (or near) both energy-conserving sites 1 and 2, while energy-conserving site 3 is unaffected. (2) Gossypol, at concentrations at which it exerts its uncoupling effect, stimulates ATPase activity. Higher concentrations inhibit the enzyme activity. (3) The addition of gossypol to mitochondria respiring on pyruvate plus malate or succinate induces a more oxidized state of NAD+ and cytochrome b, respectively. (4) Gossypol enhances the effect of Lonidamine on oxygen consumption. Lonidamine does not affect state 4 respiration, but in the presence of gossypol, it determines a marked decrease in the rate of oxygen consumption. The inhibition of oxidation of NAD-linked substrates is greater than that of FAD-linked substrates. (5) It may be concluded that gossypol is very effective in potentiating the effect of Lonidamine. Moreover, it may be suggested that the antitumor activity of Lonidamine is enhanced if it is used in combination with other drugs and/or treatments, such as hyperthermia, which modify the energy status of mitochondria.

Based on a glucose oxidase sensor for determination of glucose several glucoseoxidase bioenzyme electrodes have been developed. Enzymes producing glucose by hydrolysis of saccharides (glucamylase, invertase, cellulase) as well as glucose consuming systems (hexo-kinase, glucose dehydrogenase) have been coupled to glucose oxidase. The function of the bienzyme systems was demonstrated by concentration measurements (blood glucose, maltose, ATP, NAD+, starch) and enzyme activity measurements (alpha-amylase, ATPase, lactate dehydrogenase).

Procyclic culture forms of Trypanosoma brucei stock 427 have been screened for the presence of enzymes involved in glycolysis, mitochondrial energy metabolism and threonine degradation. The enzyme activities in the procyclics were compared with those of the blood stream forms. The specific activities of glycolytic enzymes represented 30-70% of the respective levels in the blood stream form, except for hexokinase which was 25-fold reduced. Cell fractionation showed that the enzymes involved in the early sequence of the glycolytic pathway, i.e. from hexokinase to phosphoglycerate kinase, and the enzymes NAD+-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and glycerol kinase were all present in glycosomes equilibrating at a density of 1.23 g/cm3 in sucrose gradients. Malate dehydrogenase was 8-fold more active in procyclics than in bloodstream forms. This increase in activity was the result of the appearance of malate dehydrogenase in the glycosomes of the procyclics, in addition to mitochondrial and cell-sap activities which were present in both stages of the life cycle. Glycosomes contained part of the adenylate kinase activity, which was also associated with the mitochondrion. Succinate dehydrogenase and sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, together with oligomycin-sensitive ATPase, were located in the mitochondrion which had a density in sucrose ranging from 1.16 to 1.18 g/cm3. This organelle also contained L-threonine 3-dehydrogenase and carnitine acetyltransferase, two enzymes involved in threonine catabolism. The latter two enzymes had activities which were, respectively, 15-and 13-fold higher in the procyclics than in the bloodstream form. Mitochondrial sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was decreased 4-fold.

Mitochondria from skeletal muscle, heart and liver of strain 129/ReJ-dy dystrophic mice and their littermate controls were characterized with respect to their respiratory and phosphorylating activities. Skeletal muscle mitochondria from dystrophic mice showed significantly lower state 3 respiratory rates than controls with both pyruvate + malate and succinate as substrates (P less than 0.01). ADP/O and Ca2+/O ratios were found to be normal. A decreased rate of NADH oxidation (0.01 less than P less than 0.05) by sonicated mitochondrial suspensions from dystrophic mice was also seen. High respiratory rates with ascorbate + phenazine methosulfate as substrates indicated that cytochrome oxidase was not rate limiting in the oxidation of either pyruvate + malate or succinate. Skeletal muscle mitochondria from dystrophic mice showed no deficiency in any of the cytochromes or coenzyme Q. Mg2+-stimulated ATPase activity was higher in dystrophic muscle mitochondria than in controls, but basal and oligomycin-insensitive activities were virtually identical to those of controls. A significant reduction inthe intramitochondrial NAD+ content (0.01 less than P less than 0.02) was seen in dystrophic skeletal muscle as compared to controls. Heart mitochondria from dystrophic mice showed similar, though less extensive abnormalities while liver mitochondria were essentially normal. We concluded from these results that skeletal muscle mitochondria from strain 129 dystrophic mice possess impairments in substrate utilization which may result from (1) an abnormality in the transfer of electrons on the substrate side of coenzyme Q in the case of succinate oxidation; (2) a defect on the path of electron flow from NADH to cytochrome c, and (3) a deficiency of NAD+ in the case of NAD+-linked substrates.
