Structural studies on mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase using chemical cross-linking.

ABSTRACT: The structure of bovine heart mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase was investigated by cross-linking constituent subunits with disuccinimidyl tartrate, (ethylene glycol)yl bis(succinimidyl succinate) and dimethyl suberimidate. Cross-linked products were identified by Western blotting with monospecific antisera to nine subunits of the enzyme. Cross-links between subunits within the flavoprotein, iron-protein and hydrophobic domains of the enzyme were identified. Cross-linking between the 75 kDa iron-protein-domain subunit and the 51 kDa flavoprotein-domain subunit was modulated by the substrate NADH. Cross-linking of subunits of the iron-protein and flavoprotein domains to constituents of the hydrophobic domain was also found. This was further substantiated by photolabelling subunits of the latter region, which were in contact with the membrane lipid, with 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3-(m-[125I]iodophenyl)diazirine. One such subunit of Mr 19,000 could be cross-linked to components of the iron-protein domain.

Chemical cross-linking of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase from bovine heart.

Project description:The structure of bovine heart mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase was investigated by using two cleavable cross-linking agents, disuccinimidyl tartrate and (ethylene glycol)yl bis-(succinimidyl succinate). Cross-linking was analysed primarily by immunoblotting to detect products containing subunits of the iron-protein fraction from chaotropic resolution of the enzyme, namely those of 75, 49, 30 and 13 kDa. By using both the isolated iron-protein fraction and the intact dehydrogenase, cross-links were identified between these four subunits, from these subunits to the largest subunit of the flavoprotein fraction, which contains the active site for NADH, and from these subunits to polypeptides in the hydrophobic shell, which surrounds the hydrophilic iron-protein and flavoprotein fractions.

Transmembrane organization of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase as revealed by radiochemical labelling and cross-linking.

Project description:The organization of bovine heart NADH dehydrogenase in the mitochondrial inner membrane was investigated by chemical cross-linking and radiolabelling with [125I]iododiazobenzenesulphonate (IDABS). Mitochondria or submitochondrial particles were cross-linked with disulphosuccinimidyl tartrate and dimethyl suberimidate, and dimeric products containing subunits of the NADH dehydrogenase were analysed by Western blotting with subunit-specific antisera. Cross-linking of mitochondria gave rise to (49 + 30) kDa and (49 + 19) kDa dimers and an additional dimer containing the 30 kDa subunit. Cross-linking of submitochondrial particles gave rise to (75 + 51) kDa, (75 + 30) kDa and (49 + 13) kDa dimers and a further dimer containing the 30 kDa subunit. We conclude that the 49 kDa and 30 kDa subunits are transmembranous, the 19 kDa subunit is exposed on the cytoplasmic face of the membrane, whereas the 75, 51 and 13 kDa subunits are exposed on the matrix face of the membrane. Reaction of the isolated enzyme with IDABS results in labelling of 75, 49, 42, 33, 30, 13 and 10 kDa subunits. From experiments in which mitochondria or submitochondrial particles were first labelled and NADH dehydrogenase then isolated by immunoprecipitation, it was found that labelling of the 49 kDa subunit occurs predominantly from the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. On the other hand, labelling of the 75, 13 and 10 kDa subunits occurs predominantly from the matrix side of the membrane, whereas the 30 and 33 kDa subunits are heavily labelled from either side. These findings are consistent with those obtained from cross-linking.

Mitochondrial protein interactome elucidated by chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry.

Project description:Mitochondrial protein interactions and complexes facilitate mitochondrial function. These complexes range from simple dimers to the respirasome supercomplex consisting of oxidative phosphorylation complexes I, III, and IV. To improve understanding of mitochondrial function, we used chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry to identify 2,427 cross-linked peptide pairs from 327 mitochondrial proteins in whole, respiring murine mitochondria. In situ interactions were observed in proteins throughout the electron transport chain membrane complexes, ATP synthase, and the mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS) complex. Cross-linked sites showed excellent agreement with empirical protein structures and delivered complementary constraints for in silico protein docking. These data established direct physical evidence of the assembly of the complex I-III respirasome and enabled prediction of in situ interfacial regions of the complexes. Finally, we established a database and tools to harness the cross-linked interactions we observed as molecular probes, allowing quantification of conformation-dependent protein interfaces and dynamic protein complex assembly.

Differences in mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase activities in trypanosomatids.

Project description:Complex I (NADH dehydrogenase) is the first enzyme in the respiratory chain. It catalyses the electron transfer from NADH to ubiquinone that is associated with proton pumping out of the matrix. In this study, we characterized NADH dehydrogenase activity in seven monoxenous trypanosomatid species: Blechomonas ayalai, Herpetomonas tarakana, Kentomonas sorsogonicus, Leptomonas seymouri, Novymonas esmeraldas, Sergeia podlipaevi and Wallacemonas raviniae. We also investigated the subunit composition of the complex I in dixenous Phytomonas serpens, in which its presence and activity have been previously documented. In addition to P. serpens, the complex I is functionally active in N. esmeraldas and S. podlipaevi. We also identified 24-32 subunits of the complex I in individual species by using mass spectrometry. Among them, for the first time, we recognized several proteins of the mitochondrial DNA origin.

Chemical cross-linking of chick oviduct progesterone-receptor subunits by using a reversible bifunctional cross-linking agent.

Project description:Chick oviduct progesterone-receptor proteins were treated in cytosol with the reversible cross-linking reagent methyl 4-mercaptobutyrimidate. The product of the reaction was a 7S complex that could be detected and recovered after sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation in 0.3M-KCl. The extent of the reaction was dependent on the concentration of methyl 4-mercaptobutyrimidate and independent of the presence of bound hormone, since unlabelled receptors could also be cross-linked. The cross-linking reaction required conditions in which the cytosol 6S complex was preserved. A Stokes radius of 7.3 nm was determined by gel filtration in Agarose A-1.5 m in 0.3 M-KCl. The sedimentation coefficient, which was also determined in 0.3 M-KCl, allowed us to calculate a mol. wt. of 228,000. We were also able to cross-link partially purified receptor forms isolated by using an Agarose A-15 m column. On reduction with beta-mercaptoethanol the complex broke down to 4S monomers that were identified by DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose chromatography, adsorption on DNA-cellulose and gel filtration in an Agarose A-1.5 m column. In most cases, A and B receptor proteins were released in equivalent amounts, implying that the cross-linked form was an A-B complex.

Mapping the structural topology of the yeast 19S proteasomal regulatory particle using chemical cross-linking and probabilistic modeling.

Project description:Structural characterization of proteasome complexes is an essential step toward understanding the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Currently, high resolution structures are not available for the 26S proteasome holocomplex as well as its subcomplex, the 19S regulatory particle (RP). Here we have employed a novel integrated strategy combining chemical cross-linking with multistage tandem mass spectrometry to define the proximity of subunits within the yeast 19S RP to elucidate its topology. This has resulted in the identification of 174 cross-linked peptides of the yeast 19S RP, representing 43 unique lysine-lysine linkages within 24 nonredundant pair-wise subunit interactions. To map the spatial organization of the 19S RP, we have developed and utilized a rigorous probabilistic framework to derive maximum likelihood (ML) topologies based on cross-linked peptides determined from our analysis. Probabilistic modeling of the yeast 19S AAA-ATPase ring (i.e., Rpt1-6) has produced an ML topology that is in excellent agreement with known topologies of its orthologs. In addition, similar analysis was carried out on the 19S lid subcomplex, whose predicted ML topology corroborates recently reported electron microscopy studies. Together, we have demonstrated the effectiveness and potential of probabilistic modeling for unraveling topologies of protein complexes using cross-linking data. This report describes the first study of the 19S RP topology using a new integrated strategy combining chemical cross-linking, mass spectrometry, and probabilistic modeling. Our results have provided a solid foundation to advance our understanding of the 19S RP architecture at peptide level resolution. Furthermore, our methodology developed here is a valuable proteomic tool that can be generalized for elucidating the structures of protein complexes.

Novel mitochondrial complex I-inhibiting peptides restrain NADH dehydrogenase activity.

Project description:The emergence of drug-resistant fungal pathogens is becoming increasingly serious due to overuse of antifungals. Antimicrobial peptides have potent activity against a broad spectrum of pathogens, including fungi, and are considered a potential new class of antifungals. In this study, we examined the activities of the newly designed peptides P-113Du and P-113Tri, together with their parental peptide P-113, against the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans. The results showed that these peptides inhibit mitochondrial complex I, specifically NADH dehydrogenase, of the electron transport chain. Moreover, P-113Du and P-113Tri also block alternative NADH dehydrogenases. Currently, most inhibitors of the mitochondrial complex I are small molecules or artificially-designed antibodies. Here, we demonstrated novel functions of antimicrobial peptides in inhibiting the mitochondrial complex I of C. albicans, providing insight in the development of new antifungal agents.

Structure of cyanobacterial phycobilisome core revealed by structural modeling and chemical cross-linking.

Project description:In cyanobacteria and red algae, the structural basis dictating efficient excitation energy transfer from the phycobilisome (PBS) antenna complex to the reaction centers remains unclear. The PBS has several peripheral rods and a central core that binds to the thylakoid membrane, allowing energy coupling with photosystem II (PSII) and PSI. Here, we have combined chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry with homology modeling to propose a tricylindrical cyanobacterial PBS core structure. Our model reveals a side-view crossover configuration of the two basal cylinders, consolidating the essential roles of the anchoring domains composed of the ApcE PB loop and ApcD, which facilitate the energy transfer to PSII and PSI, respectively. The uneven bottom surface of the PBS core contrasts with the flat reducing side of PSII. The extra space between two basal cylinders and PSII provides increased accessibility for regulatory elements, e.g., orange carotenoid protein, which are required for modulating photochemical activity.

Analysis of Protein-protein Interaction Interface between Yeast Mitochondrial Proteins Rim1 and Pif1 Using Chemical Cross-linking Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Defining protein-protein contacts is a challenging problem and cross-linking is a promising solution. Here, we present a case of mitochondrial single strand binding protein Rim1 and helicase Pif1, an interaction first observed in immuno-affinity pull-down from yeast cells using Pif1 bait. We found that only the short succinimidyl-diazirine cross-linker or formaldehyde captured the interaction between recombinant Rim1 and Pif1. In addition, Pif1 needed to be stripped of its N-terminal and C-terminal domains, and Rim1's C-terminus needed to be modified for the cross-linked product to become visible. Our report is an example of a non-trivial analysis, where a previously identified stable interaction escapes initial capture with cross-linking agents and requires substantial modification to recombinant proteins and fine-tuning of the mass spectrometry-based methods for the cross-links to become detectable. We used high resolution mass spectrometry to detect the cross-linked peptides. A 1:1 mixture of 15N and 14N-labeled Rim1 was used to validate the cross-links by their mass shift in the LC-MS profiles. Two sites on Rim1 were confirmed: 1) the N-terminus, and 2) the K29 residue. Performing cross-linking with a K29A variant visibly reduced the cross-linked product. Further, K29A-Rim1 showed a five-fold lower affinity to single stranded DNA compared to wild-type Rim1. Both the K29A variant and wild type Rim1 showed similar degrees of stimulation of Pif1 helicase activity. We propose structural models of the Pif1-Rim1 interaction and discuss its functional significance. Our work represents a non-trivial protein-protein interface analysis and demonstrates utility of short and non-specific cross-linkers.

Variation in mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4 genes in the Chagas disease vector Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae).

Project description:Variation in mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 (ND5) and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4 (ND4) genes was surveyed in Triatoma infestans from 24 localities of Argentina. The DNA sequence comparisons of 2,183 basepairs of the mitochondrial genome, which include the complete sequence of ND5 (1,712 basepairs) and 401 basepairs of ND4 genes, showed 19 haplotypes determined by 48 variable sites and a nucleotide diversity value of 0.292%. Twenty-six (65%) substitutions were synonymous, and there were 14 (35%) predicted amino acid replacements in ND5. In ND4, 5 (62.5%) substitutions were synonymous and 3 (37.5%) were replacement sites. Samples from six localities studied shared one haplotype and the rest of the localities had different haplotypes. The amplified regions should be useful for population genetic studies.
