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.

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.
