Real-time electron transfer in respiratory complex I.
Electron transfer in complex I from Escherichia coli was investigated by an ultrafast freeze-quench approach. The reaction of complex I with NADH was stopped in the time domain from 90 mus to 8 ms and analyzed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy at low temperatures. The data show that after binding of the first molecule of NADH, two electrons move via the FMN cofactor to the i...
متن کاملCardiolipin requirement for electron transfer in complex I and III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
Almost complete phospholipid depletion has been achieved for Complex I and III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain using a technique that involves elution on Sephadex LH-20 in the presence of Triton X-100. Enzymic activity may be regenerated by replenishment with phospholipid. However, restoration of enzymic activity in phospholipid-depleted Complex I and III has been shown to require the pr...
متن کاملElectron tunneling in respiratory complex I.
NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) plays a central role in the respiratory electron transport chain by coupling the transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone to the creation of the proton gradient across the membrane necessary for ATP synthesis. Here the atomistic details of electronic wiring of all Fe/S clusters in complex I are revealed by using the tunneling current theory and co...
متن کاملOn the mechanism of electron transfer in complex iii of the electron transfer chain.
Complex III of the mitochondrial electron transfer chain is an asymmetric unit with a diameter of 80-100 Al and a molecular weight of about 300,000.2 Preparations of the complex contain 20-30 per cent by weight of lipid and (in the presence of bile salts) are water soluble.3 Under appropriate conditions (involving dilution of the bile salts), the units aggregate into vesicular membranes.4 The c...
متن کاملKinetics of electron transfer through the respiratory chain.
We show that the rate at which electrons pass through the respiratory chain in mitochondria and respiring prokaryotic cells is described by the product of three terms, one describing electron donation, one acceptance, and a third, the thermodynamic drive. We apply the theory of nonequilibrium thermodynamics in the context of the chemiosmotic model of proton translocation and energy conservation...
