Abstract:
:The respiratory chain of marine and moderately halophilic bacteria requires Na+ for maximum activity, and the site of Na(+)-dependent activation is located in the NADH-quinone reductase segment. The Na(+)-dependent NADH-quinone reductase purified from marine bacterium Vibrio alginolyticus is composed of three subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, with apparent M(r) of 52, 46, and 32 kDa, respectively. The FAD-containing beta-subunit reacts with NADH and reduces ubiquinone-1 (Q-1) by a one-electron transfer pathway to produce ubisemiquinones. In the presence of the FMN-containing alpha-subunit and the gamma-subunit, Q-1 is converted to ubiquinol-1 without the accumulation of free radicals. The reaction catalyzed by the alpha-subunit is strictly dependent on Na+ and is strongly inhibited by 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide (HQNO), which is tightly coupled to the electrogenic extrusion of Na+. A similar type of Na(+)-translocating NADH-quinone reductase is widely distributed among marine and moderately halophilic bacteria. The respiratory chain of V. alginolyticus contains another NADH-quinone reductase which is Na+ independent and has no energy-transducing capacity. These two types of NADH-quinone reductase are quite different with respect to their mode of quinone reduction and their sensitivity toward NADH preincubation.
