چکیده انگلیسی
The proton-pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase is the first of the respiratory chain complexes in many bacteria and the mitochondria of most eukaryotes. In general, the bacterial complex consists of 14 different subunits. In addition to the homologues of these subunits, the mitochondrial complex contains approximately 31 additional proteins. While it was shown that the mitochondrial complex is assembled from distinct intermediates, nothing is known about the assembly of the bacterial complex. We used Escherichia coli mutants, in which the nuo-genes coding the subunits of complex I were individually disrupted by an insertion of a resistance cartridge to determine whether they are required for the assembly of a functional complex I. No complex I-mediated enzyme activity was detectable in the mutant membranes and it was not possible to extract a structurally intact complex I from the mutant membranes. However, the subunits and the cofactors of the soluble NADH dehydrogenase fragment of the complex were detected in the cytoplasm of some of the nuo-mutants. It is discussed whether this fragment represents an assembly intermediate. In addition, a membrane-bound fragment exhibiting NADH/ferricyanide oxidoreductase activity and containing the iron-sulfur cluster N2 was detected in one mutant.
