Reoxygenation-dependent decrease in mitochondrial NADH:CoQ reductase (Complex I) activity in the hypoxic/reoxygenated rat heart.

ABSTRACT: Reoxygenation of the hypoxic myocardium results in a number of processes, including an O2-dependent increase in total tissue Ca2+ and cell lysis in which mitochondrial electron transport plays a key role. In the present study we have isolated mitochondria from perfused rat hearts subjected to hypoxia and found no change in their respiratory function relative to controls. In contrast, mitochondria isolated immediately after reoxygenation of hypoxic-perfused hearts exhibited a specific and significant decrease in NADH:CoQ reductase (Complex I; EC 1.6.5.3) activity, as measured both polarographically and spectrophotometrically. Isolated cardiomyocytes subjected to a similar protocol of hypoxia/reoxygenation also exhibited a specific decrease in Complex I activity. Myocardial perfusion with media containing Ruthenium Red protected against the reoxygenation-dependent loss of Complex I activity. These observations taken together suggest that mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake on reoxygenation is implicated in the mechanism of the specific loss of Complex I activity.

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.

Nitric oxide inhibits mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone reductase activity through peroxynitrite formation.

Project description:This study was aimed at assessing the effects of long-term exposure to NO of respiratory activities in mitochondria from different tissues (with different ubiquinol contents), under conditions that either promote or prevent the formation of peroxynitrite. Mitochondria and submitochondrial particles isolated from rat heart, liver and brain were exposed either to a steady-state concentration or to a bolus addition of NO. NO induced the mitochondrial production of superoxide anions, hydrogen peroxide and peroxynitrite, the latter shown by nitration of mitochondrial proteins. Long-term incubation of mitochondrial membranes with NO resulted in a persistent inhibition of NADH:cytochrome c reductase activity, interpreted as inhibition of NADH:ubiquinone reductase (Complex I) activity, whereas succinate:cytochrome c reductase activity, including Complex II and Complex III electron transfer, remained unaffected. This selective effect of NO and derived species was partially prevented by superoxide dismutase and uric acid. In addition, peroxynitrite mimicked the effect of NO, including tyrosine nitration of some Complex I proteins. These results seem to indicate that the inhibition of NADH:ubiquinone reductase (Complex I) activity depends on the NO-induced generation of superoxide radical and peroxynitrite and that Complex I is selectively sensitive to peroxynitrite. Inhibition of Complex I activity by peroxynitrite may have critical implications for energy supply in tissues such as the brain, whose mitochondrial function depends largely on the channelling of reducing equivalents through Complex I.

Mitochondrial complex I activity and NAD+/NADH balance regulate breast cancer progression.

Project description:Despite advances in clinical therapy, metastasis remains the leading cause of death in breast cancer patients. Mutations in mitochondrial DNA, including those affecting complex I and oxidative phosphorylation, are found in breast tumors and could facilitate metastasis. This study identifies mitochondrial complex I as critical for defining an aggressive phenotype in breast cancer cells. Specific enhancement of mitochondrial complex I activity inhibited tumor growth and metastasis through regulation of the tumor cell NAD+/NADH redox balance, mTORC1 activity, and autophagy. Conversely, nonlethal reduction of NAD+ levels by interfering with nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase expression rendered tumor cells more aggressive and increased metastasis. The results translate into a new therapeutic strategy: enhancement of the NAD+/NADH balance through treatment with NAD+ precursors inhibited metastasis in xenograft models, increased animal survival, and strongly interfered with oncogene-driven breast cancer progression in the MMTV-PyMT mouse model. Thus, aberration in mitochondrial complex I NADH dehydrogenase activity can profoundly enhance the aggressiveness of human breast cancer cells, while therapeutic normalization of the NAD+/NADH balance can inhibit metastasis and prevent disease progression.

NADH- and NADPH-dependent formation of superoxide anions by bovine heart submitochondrial particles and NADH-ubiquinone reductase preparation.

Project description:1. Both NADH and NADPH supported the oxidation of adrenaline to adrenochrome in bovine heart submitochondrial particles. The reaction was completely inhibited in the presence of superoxide dismutase, suggesting that superoxide anions (O(2) (-)) are responsible for the oxidation. The optimal pH of the reaction with NADPH was at pH7.5, whereas that with NADH was at pH9.0. The reaction was inhibited by treatment of the preparation with p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and stimulated by treatment with rotenone. Antimycin A and cyanide stimulated the reaction to the same extent as rotenone. The NADPH-dependent reaction was inhibited by inorganic salts at high concentrations, whereas the NADH-dependent reaction was stimulated. 2. Production of O(2) (-) by NADH-ubiquinone reductase preparation (Complex I) with NADH or NADPH as an electron donor was assayed by measuring the formation of adrenochrome or the reduction of acetylated cytochrome c which does not react with the respiratory-chain components. p-Hydroxymercuribenzoate inhibited the reaction and rotenone stimulated the reaction. The effects of pH and inorganic salts at high concentrations on the NADH- and NADPH-dependent reactions of Complex I were essentially similar to those on the reactions of submitochondrial particles. 3. These findings suggest that a region between a mercurialsensitive site and the rotenone-sensitive site of the respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase is largely responsible for the NADH- and NADPH-dependent O(2) (-) production by the mitochondrial inner membranes.

Inhibition and inactivation of NADH-cytochrome c reductase activity of bovine heart submitochondrial particles by the iron(III)-adriamycin complex.

Project description:The NADH-cytochrome c reductase activity of bovine heart submitochondrial particles was found to be slowly (half-time of 16 min) and progressively lost upon incubation with the Fe2(+)-adriamycin complex. In addition to this slow progressive inactivation seen on incubation, a reversible fast phase of inhibition was also seen. However, if EDTA was added to the incubation mixture within 15 s, the slow progressive loss in activity was largely preventable. Separate experiments indicated that EDTA removed about one-half of the iron from the Fe2(+)-adriamycin complex in about 40 s. These results indicated the requirement for iron for the inactivation process. Since the Vmax. for the fast phase of inhibition was decreased by the inhibitor, the inhibition pattern was similar to that seen for uncompetitive or mixed-type inhibition. The direct binding of both Fe3(+)-adriamycin and adriamycin to submitochondrial particles was also demonstrated, with the Fe3(+)-adriamycin complex binding 8 times more strongly than adriamycin. Thus binding of Fe3(+)-adriamycin to the enzyme or to the inner mitochondrial membrane with subsequent generation of oxy radicals in situ is a possible mechanism for the Fe3(+)-adriamycin-induced inactivation of respiratory enzyme activity.

The polypeptide composition of the mitochondrial NADH: ubiquinone reductase complex from several mammalian species.

Project description:The polypeptide composition of isolated mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone reductase (NADH dehydrogenase) is very similar to that of material immunoprecipitated from detergent-solubilized bovine heart submitochondrial particles by antisera to the holoenzyme. The specificity of the antisera for dehydrogenase polypeptides was determined by immunoblotting, which showed that antisera reacting with only a few proteins were able to immunoprecipitate all others in parallel. The polypeptide compositions of rat, rabbit and human NADH dehydrogenase were determined by immunoprecipitation of the enzyme from solubilized submitochondrial particles and proved to be very similar to that of the bovine heart enzyme, particularly in the high-Mr region. Further homologies in these and other species were explored by immunoblotting with antisera to the holoenzyme and monospecific antisera raised against iron-sulphur-protein subunits of the enzyme.

Inverting the Stereoselectivity of an NADH-Dependent Imine-Reductase Variant.

Project description:Imine reductases (IREDs) offer biocatalytic routes to chiral amines and have a natural preference for the NADPH cofactor. In previous work, we reported enzyme engineering of the (R)-selective IRED from Myxococcus stipitatus (NADH-IRED-Ms) yielding a NADH-dependent variant with high catalytic efficiency. However, no IRED with NADH specificity and (S)-selectivity in asymmetric reductions has yet been reported. Herein, we applied semi-rational enzyme engineering to switch the selectivity of NADH-IRED-Ms. The quintuple variant A241V/H242Y/N243D/V244Y/A245L showed reverse stereopreference in the reduction of the cyclic imine 2-methylpyrroline compared to the wild-type and afforded the (S)-amine product with >99 % conversion and 91 % enantiomeric excess. We also report the crystal-structures of the NADPH-dependent (R)-IRED-Ms wild-type enzyme and the NADH-dependent NADH-IRED-Ms variant and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to rationalize the inverted stereoselectivity of the quintuple variant.

Mitochondrial NADH fluorescence is enhanced by complex I binding.

Project description:Mitochondrial NADH fluorescence has been a useful tool in evaluating mitochondrial energetics both in vitro and in vivo. Mitochondrial NADH fluorescence is enhanced several-fold in the matrix through extended fluorescence lifetimes (EFL). However, the actual binding sites responsible for NADH EFL are unknown. We tested the hypothesis that NADH binding to Complex I is a significant source of mitochondrial NADH fluorescence enhancement. To test this hypothesis, the effect of Complex I binding on NADH fluorescence efficiency was evaluated in purified protein, and in native gels of the entire porcine heart mitochondria proteome. To avoid the oxidation of NADH in these preparations, we conducted the binding experiments under anoxic conditions in a specially designed apparatus. Purified intact Complex I enhanced NADH fluorescence in native gels approximately 10-fold. However, no enhancement was detected in denatured individual Complex I subunit proteins. In the Clear and Ghost native gels of the entire mitochondrial proteome, NADH fluorescence enhancement was localized to regions where NADH oxidation occurred in the presence of oxygen. Inhibitor and mass spectroscopy studies revealed that the fluorescence enhancement was specific to Complex I proteins. No fluorescence enhancement was detected for MDH or other dehydrogenases in this assay system, at physiological mole fractions of the matrix proteins. These data suggest that NADH associated with Complex I significantly contributes to the overall mitochondrial NADH fluorescence signal and provides an explanation for the well established close correlation of mitochondrial NADH fluorescence and the metabolic state.

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.

Structural and Kinetic Characterization of Hyperthermophilic NADH-Dependent Persulfide Reductase from <i>Archaeoglobus fulgidus</i>.

Project description:NADH-dependent persulfide reductase (Npsr) has been proposed to facilitate dissimilatory sulfur respiration by reducing persulfide or sulfane sulfur-containing substrates to H2S. The presence of this gene in the sulfate and thiosulfate-reducing Archaeoglobus fulgidus DSM 4304 and other hyperthermophilic Archaeoglobales appears anomalous, as A. fulgidus is unable to respire S0 and grow in the presence of elemental sulfur. To assess the role of Npsr in the sulfur metabolism of A. fulgidus DSM 4304, the Npsr from A. fulgidus was characterized. AfNpsr is specific for persulfide and polysulfide as substrates in the oxidative half-reaction, exhibiting k cat/K m on the order of 104 M-1 s-1, which is similar to the kinetic parameters observed for hyperthermophilic CoA persulfide reductases. In contrast to the bacterial Npsr, AfNpsr exhibits low disulfide reductase activity with DTNB; however, similar to the bacterial enzymes, it does not show detectable activity with CoA-disulfide, oxidized glutathione, or cystine. The 3.1 Å X-ray structure of AfNpsr reveals access to the tightly bound catalytic CoA, and the active site Cys 42 is restricted by a flexible loop (residues 60-66) that is not seen in the bacterial homologs from Shewanella loihica PV-4 and Bacillus anthracis. Unlike the bacterial enzymes, AfNpsr exhibits NADH oxidase activity and also shows no detectable activity with NADPH. Models suggest steric and electrostatic repulsions of the NADPH 2'-phosphate account for the strong preference for NADH. The presence of Npsr in the nonsulfur-reducing A. fulgidus suggests that the enzyme may offer some protection against S0 or serve in another metabolic role that has yet to be identified.
