Isolation and oxidative properties of intact mitochondria isolated from spinach leaves

A procedure was described for preparing intact mitochondria from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaves. These mitochondria oxidized succinate, malate, pyruvate, α-ketoglutarate, and NADH with good respiratory control and ADP/O ratios comparable to those observed with mitochondria from other plant tissues. Glycine was oxidized by the preparations. This oxidation linked to the mitochondrial electron transport chain, was coupled to three phosphorylation sites and was sensitive to electron transport and phosphorylation inhibitors.     

Effects of kaempferol on the oxidative properties of intact plant mitochondria

The effects of kaempferol on the oxidative and phosphorylative properties of plant mitochondria from potato tubers and etiolated mung bean (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.) hypocotyls were investigated. Kaempferol inhibited the state 3 oxidation rate of malate, NADH, and succinate, but was without effect on the ascorbate-tetramethyl p-phenylenediamine oxidation rate. The inhibition was almost the same whether the mitochondria were in state 3 or in an uncoupled state 3. When 180 micromolar kaempferol was added during state 4, the tight coupling of succinate or NADH oxidation was not released. The results obtained indicate that kaempferol inhibits the mitochondrial electron flow at, or just after, the flavoprotein site.     

Adenylate control of respiration in plants: the contribution of rotenone-insensitive electron transport to ADP-limited oxygen consumption by soybean mitochondria

The aim was to test the hypothesis that rotenone-insensive electron transport (bypass of complex I) may underlie rapid state 4 (ADP-limited) mitochondrial respiration. A comparison of mitochondria from soybean ( Glycine max L. cv. Bragg) cotyledons and nodules showed that ADP-sufficient (state 3) malate plus pyruvate oxidation by mitochondria from 7-day-old cotyledons was inhibited 50% by rotenone and state 4 rates were rapid, whereas nodule mitochondria were 80% inhibited by rotenone and had slower state 4 rates of malate plus pyruvate oxidation. Respiration of malate alone (pH 7.6) by cotyledon mitochondria was slow, especially in the absence of ADP; subsequent addition of pyruvate dramatically increased state 4 oxygen uptake concomitant with a rapid rise in mitochondrial NADH (determined by fluorimetry). Rotenone had no effect on this increased rate of state 4 respiration. The rate of malate oxidation by nodule mitochondria was relatively rapid compared with cotyledon mitochondria. The addition of pyruvate in state 4 caused a slow increase in matrix NADH and only a slight stimulation of oxygen uptake. Rotenone inhibited state 4 malate plus pyruvate oxidation by 50% in these mitochondria. From a large number of cotyledon and nodule mitochondrial preparations, a close correlation was found between the rate of state 4 oxygen uptake and rotenone-resistance. During cotyledon development increased rotenone-resistance was associated with an increase in the alternative oxidase. Addition of pyruvate to cotyledon mitochondria, during state 4 oxidation of malate in the presence of antimycin A, significantly stimulated O₂ uptake and also almost eliminated respiratory control. Such combined operation of the rotenone-insensitive bypass and the alternative oxidase in vivo will significantly affect the extent to which adenylates control the rate of electron transport.     

Mitochondria from Zea mays leaf tissues: Differentiation of carbon assimilation and photorespiratory activity between mesophyll and bundle sheath cells

A procedure was developed to obtain intact and purified mitochondria from mesophyll and bundle sheath tissues of Zea mays L. cv. I.N.R.A. 180, an NADP⁺-malic enzyme type C₄ plant. There was little cross-contamination between the two mitochondrial fractions.
Both types of mitochondria oxidized NADH, succinate and malate with respiratory control. In mesophyll mitochondria malate oxidation was highly sensitive to KCN (85–90% inhibition of first state 3) and showed good respiratory control. In bundle sheath mitochondria malate oxidation was less sensitive to cyanide (75-80% inhibition) and showed poor respiratory control. Malate and NADH appeared to be the best substrates for respiratory activity. Mesophyil mitochondria could not oxidize glycine, whereas bundle sheath mitochondria could.
The results indicate that mesophyll and bundle sheath mitochondria of Zea mays are differentiated, not only with respect to the decarboxylation of malate but also with respect to the decarboxylation phase of photorespiration.     

Isolation and characterization of metabolically competent mitochondria from spinach leaf protoplasts

Intact mitochondria were prepared from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. var. Kyoho) leaf protoplasts and purified by Percoll discontinuous gradient centrifugation. Assays of several marker enzymes showed that the final mitochondrial preparations obtained are nearly free from other contaminating organelles, e.g. chloroplasts, peroxisomes, and endoplasmic reticulum. These mitochondria oxidized malate, glycine, succinate, and NADH, tightly coupled to oxidative phosphorylation with high values of ADP to O ratio as well as respiratory control ratio. The rate of NADH oxidation was 331 nmoles O₂ per milligram mitochondrial protein per minute, which is comparable to that obtained by highly purified potato or mung bean mitochondria. However, the activity of glutamine synthetase was barely detectable in the isolated mitochondrial fraction. This finding rules out a hypothetical scheme (Jackson, Dench, Morris, Lui, Hall, Moore 1971 Biochem Soc Trans 7: 1122) dealing with the role of the mitochondrial glutamine synthetase in the reassimilation of NH₃, which is released during the step of photorespiratory glycine decarboxylation in green leaf tissues, but it is consistent with the photosynthetic nitrogen cycle (Keys, Bird, Cornelius, Lea, Wallsgrove, Miflin 1978 Nature (Lond) 275: 741), in which NH₃ reassimilation occurs outside the mitochondria.     

Respiration of Mitochondria Isolated from Leaves and Protoplasts of Avena sativa

Mitochondria isolated from mesophyll protoplasts differed from mitochondria isolated directly from leaves of Avena sativa in that protoplast mitochondria (a) had a lower overall respiratory capacity, (b) were less able to use low concentrations of exogenous NADH, (c) did not respond rapidly or strongly to added NAD, (d) appeared to accumulate more oxaloacetate, and (e) oxidized both succinate and tetramethyl-p-phenylene-diamine (an electron donor for cytochrome oxidase) more slowly than did leaf mitochondria. It is concluded that cytochrome oxidase activity was inhibited, the external NADH dehydrogenase had a reduced affinity for NADH, succinate oxidation was inhibited, NAD and oxaloacetate porters were probably inhibited, and accessibility to respiratory paths may have been reduced in protoplast mitochondria. The results also suggest that there was a reduced affinity of a succinate porter for this substrate in oat mitochondria. In addition, all oat mitochondria required salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM) as well as cyanide to block malate and succinate oxidation. Malate oxidation that did not appear to saturate the cytochrome pathway was sensitive to SHAM in the absence of cyanide, suggesting that the oat mitochondria studied had concomitant alternative and subsaturating cytochrome oxidase pathway activity.     

Cyanide-Resistant Respiration in Suspension Cultured Cells of Nicotiana glutinosa L

The respiration of dark-grown Nicotiana glutinosa L. cells in liquid suspension culture was found to be highly cyanide resistant and salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM) sensitive, indicative of an active alternative respiratory pathway. This was especially true during the lag and logarithmic phases of the 14-day growth cycle. Mitochondria isolated from logarithmically growing cells exhibited active oxidation of malate, succinate, and exogenous NADH. Oxidation of all three substrates had an optimum pH of 6.5 and all were highly resistant to inhibited by cyanide and sensitive to SHAM. Respiratory control was exhibited by all three substrates but only if SHAM was present to block the alternative pathway and divert electrons to the phosphorylating cytochrome pathway. The cyanide-resistant oxidation of exogenous NADH has previously only been associated with Arum spadix mitochondria. Coemergence during evolution of the alternative respiratory pathway and the exogenous NADH dehydrogenase in plant mitochondria as a possible mechanism for removal of cytoplasmic NADH is proposed. Evidence is presented which suggests that mitochondrial assays should be performed at pH 6.5.     

Rotenone-like action of the branched-chain phytanic acid induces oxidative stress in mitochondria

Phytanic acid (Phyt) increase is associated with the hereditary neurodegenerative Refsum disease. To elucidate the still unclear toxicity of Phyt, mitochondria from brain and heart of adult rats were exposed to free Phyt. Phyt at low micromolar concentrations (maximally: 100 nmol/mg of protein) enhances superoxide (O(2)(.))(2) generation. Phyt induces O(2)(.) in state 3 (phosphorylating), as well as in state 4 (resting). Phyt stimulates O(2)(.) generation when the respiratory chain is fed with electrons derived from oxidation of glutamate/malate, pyruvate/malate, or succinate in the presence of rotenone. With succinate alone, Phyt suppresses O(2)(.) generation caused by reverse electron transport from succinate to complex I. The enhanced O(2)(.) generation by Phyt in state 4 is in contrast to the mild uncoupling concept. In this concept uncoupling by nonesterified fatty acids should abolish O(2)(.) generation. Stimulation of O(2)(.) generation by Phyt is paralleled by inhibition of the electron transport within the respiratory chain or electron leakage from the respiratory chain. The interference of Phyt with the electron transport was demonstrated by inhibition of state 3- and p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP)-dependent respiration, inactivation of the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex in permeabilized mitochondria, decrease in reduction of the synthetic electron acceptor 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide in state 4, and increase of the mitochondrial NAD(P)H level in FCCP-uncoupled mitochondria. Thus, we suggest that complex I is the main site of Phyt-stimulated O(2)(.) generation. Furthermore, inactivation of aconitase and oxidation of the mitochondrial glutathione pool show that enhanced O(2)(.) generation with chronic exposure to Phyt causes oxidative damage.     

Vitamin E deficiency in the rat. IV. Alteration in mitochondrial membrane and its relation to respiratory decline

The respiratory control and rate of oxidation of exogenous NADH in vitro by liver mitochondria from vitamin E deficient rats were studied as a means of providing information concerning possible mitochondrial membrane alterations due to the deficiency.When mitochondria were aged at different temperatures for various periods of time, half-maximal inhibition of respiratory control occurred at lower temperatures and shorter aging periods in deficient mitochondria than in normal ones. Also, respiratory control was lost more rapidly in deficient mitochondria than in normal ones in the presence of either digitonin or low (hypotonic) concentrations of mannitol.Microsomes, both freshly prepared and boiled, dramatically lowered respiratory control and the effect was greater in the deficient mitochondria. Bovine serum albumin overcame the suppressed respiratory control, and exogenously added fatty acids mimiced the action of the microsomes.NADH oxidation by normal mitochondria proceeded slowly in isotonic media, while mitochondria of vitamin E deficient rats oxidized NADH much more rapidly. When mitochondria were subjected to ultrasonic disruption or incubated in hypotonic media, the rates of NADH oxidation by both types of mitochondria were similar.Respiratory decline associated with oxidation of β-hydroxybutyrate by the deficient mitochondria was decreased by including in the medium either a high concentration of NAD⁺, 0.5 mm oxalacetate, or 2 mm aspartate plus 1 mm α-ketoglutarate. This observation, plus the finding of similar activities of malate dehydrogenase and glutamic-oxalacetic transminase in normal and deficient livers, suggests that the action of each was due to an elevation of the mitochondrial NAD⁺/NADH ratio via a malate shuttle and cytoplasmic and mitochondrial glutamic-oxalacetate transaminase. It is postulated that the marked mitochondrial respiratory decline in the deficient rats is attributed to a limiting availability of NAD⁺ and a low ratio of NAD⁺ to NADH.
