Respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase 75 Kd subunit signatures

Description:

Respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.5.3) [1,2] (also known as complex I or NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) is an oligomeric enzymatic complex located in the inner mitochondrial membrane which also seems to exist in the chloroplast and in cyanobacteria (as a NADH-plastoquinone oxidoreductase). Among the 25 to 30 polypeptide subunits of this bioenergetic enzyme complex there is one with a molecular weight of 75 Kd (in mammals), which is the largest subunit of complex I and is a component of the iron-sulfur (IP) fragment of the enzyme. It seems to bind to two 4Fe-4S clusters (called N-3 and N-4).

The 75 Kd subunit is highly similar to [3,4]:

  • Subunit γ of Alcaligenes eutrophus NAD-reducing hydrogenase (gene hoxU) which also binds two 4Fe-4S cluster.
  • Subunit NQO3 of Paracoccus denitrificans NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase.
  • Subunit G of Escherichia coli NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (gene nuoG).

The 75 Kd subunit and the bacterial hydrogenase γ subunit contains three conserved clusters of cysteine residues which are most probably involved in the binding of the iron-sulfur clusters. We have developed signature patterns for these three regions.
