| Abstract |
The NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1 or Complex I) of Escherichia coli is a smaller version of the mitochondrial enzyme, being composed of 13 protein subunits in comparison to the 43 of bovine heart complex I. The bacterial NDH-1 from an NDH-2-deficient strain was purified using a combination of anion exchange chromatography and sucrose gradient centrifugation. All 13 different subunits were detected in the purified enzyme by either N-terminal sequencing or matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectral analysis. In addition, some minor contaminants were observed and identified. The activity of the enzyme was studied and the effects of phospholipid and dodecyl maltoside were characterized. Kinetic analyses were performed for the enzyme in the native membrane as well as for the purified NDH-1, using ubiquinone-1, ubiquinone-2 or decylubiquinone as the electron acceptors. The purified enzyme exhibited between 1.5- and 4-fold increase in the apparent K(m) for these acceptors. Both ubiquinone-2 and decylubiquinone are good acceptors for this enzyme, while affinity of NDH-1 for ubiquinone-1 is clearly lower than for the other two, particularly in the purified state. |
