Riboflavin is an active redox cofactor in the Na+-pumping NADH: quinone oxidoreductase (Na+-NQR) from Vibrio cholerae.
Here we present new evidence that riboflavin is present as one of four flavins in Na+-NQR. In particular, we present conclusive evidence that the source of the neutral radical is not one of the FMNs and that riboflavin is the center that gives rise to the neutral flavosemiquinone. The riboflavin is a bona fide redox cofactor and is likely to be the last redox carrier of the enzyme, from which e...
متن کاملRegulation of p53 stability and p53-dependent apoptosis by NADH quinone oxidoreductase 1.
The tumor suppressor gene wild-type p53 encodes a labile protein that accumulates in cells after different stress signals and can cause either growth arrest or apoptosis. One of the p53 target genes, p53-inducible gene 3 (PIG3), encodes a protein with significant homology to oxidoreductases, enzymes involved in cellular responses to oxidative stress and irradiation. This fact raised the possibi...
متن کاملRole of NADH: quinone oxidoreductase-1 in the tight junctions of colonic epithelial cells
NADH:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is known to be involved in the regulation of energy synthesis and metabolism, and the functional studies of NQO1 have largely focused on metabolic disorders. Here, we show for the first time that compared to NQO1-WT mice, NQO1-KO mice exhibited a marked increase of permeability and spontaneous inflammation in the gut. In the DSS-induced colitis model, NQO1-K...
متن کاملRegulation of the mechanism of Type-II NADH: Quinone oxidoreductase from S. aureus
Type-II NADH:quinone oxidoreductases (NDH-2s) are membrane proteins involved in respiratory chains and the only enzymes with NADH:quinone oxidoreductase activity expressed in Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), one of the most common causes of clinical infections. NDH-2s are members of the two-Dinucleotide Binding Domains Flavoprotein (tDBDF) superfamily, having a flavin adenine dinucleotide, FA...
متن کاملH(+)-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) of Paracoccus denitrificans. Studies on topology and stoichiometry of the peripheral subunits.
The proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) of Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of at least 14 subunits (NQO1-14) and is located in the cytoplasmic membrane. In the present study, topological properties and stoichiometry of the 7 subunits (NQO1-6 and NQO9) of the P. denitrificans NDH-1 in the membranes were investigated using immunological techniques. Treatments with chaotr...
