Oxidative PhosphorylationMeta-bolism

Lippincott orMarks basic medical biochemistry

NADH + O2 NAD+ + H2O ΔG= -52.6 Kcal/mole

ADP + Pi ATP + H2O

The Rate ?

Need Enzyme(s) to catalyze the reaction

NADH-QOxidoreductase

Q-Cytochrome C Oxidoreductase

Cytochrome C Oxidase

Coenzyme Q

Cytochrom C

NADH

O2

Complex I

Complex IV

Complex III

Inner mitochondrial membrane

Impermeable to most ions, small and large molecules

MatrixEnzymes of TCA

Cycle, Fatty acid and amino acid oxidation

Electron Carrying Groups

• Flavin Mononucliotide• Iron Sulfur Centers• Coenzyme Q• Cytochromes• Cupper

4

Flavin Mononucliotide( FMN)

• Can accept one or two electrons •Tightly bound to protein• Reduction potential: affected by interaction with protein

Iron Sulfur CentersThree TypesInorganic Sulfur Coordinated to Cysteine sulfur

very long isoprenoid side chain Can accept one or two electrons

Cytochromes (Heme-containing proteins)

Pyrrole

Light absorptionIron alternates between 3+ and 2+

- Three classes of cytochromesa,b and c

- Distinguished by differences in their light-absorption- Each has different reduction potential

7

Complex I:-NADH Dehydrogenase-A huge flavoprotein complex.- Membrane- Spanning. - More than 25 polypeptide chain- Tightly bound FMN group-Seven Fe-S centers of at least two different types- Drop in energy≈ -13 to 14 kcal

Q-cytochrome c Oxidoreductase(Cytochrome reductase or cytochrome bc1)• Catalyzes the transfer of electrons from QH2 to

cytochrome c• 11 subunits including two cytochrome subunits • Contain iron sulfur center• Contain three heme groups in two cytochrome

subunits– bL and bH in cytochrome b– c type in cytochrome c1

• Contain two CoQ binding sites

Passes electrons from Cytocrome c to oxygen• Contains cytochrome a and a3• Contains two copper• Contains oxygen binding sites• O2 must accept 4 electrons to be reduced to two H2O• Cytochrome c is one electron carrier

Cyt cred + 4H+ + O2 → Cyt cox + 2H2O• Partial reduction of O2 is hazardous.

In the absence of oxygen, electron flow stops

Blocking by any of the inhibitors stops the flow of electron from substrate to oxygen

Reduced or oxidized state??

Testing chemiosmotichypothesis

Bacteriorhodopsin

•Purple membrane protein from halobacter•Pumps proton when illumuminated

14

ATP synthase• Large multisubunit enzyme

complex• Originally (mitochondrial

ATP’ase) FOF1 ATP’ase• FO Transmembrane: Proton

channel, 12 c and 1 a subunits

• F1 Head piece 3α3βγδε• F1 catalytic activity

The proton channel depends on both the a subunit and the c ring

The F0 and F1 subunits are connected in two ways:- central γϵ stalk- an exterior column

Αβ dimers have three different conformationsT tightL looseO open

Oxidation and Phosphorylation are tightly coupled

Control of oxidative phosphorylation

Control of oxidative phosphorylation• Electrons do not flow through electron

transport chain to O2 unlessADP ATP

• Oxidative phosphorylation requires:Source of electrons (NADH or succinate)ADP, Pi, O2

Respiratory control

Oxidation and Phosphorylation are tightly coupled

What if protons leak back into the matrix?Uncoupling

17

Chemical uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation

• Lipid soluble compounds • Rapidly transport protons across membrane

HA A- + H+

18

Uncoupling proteins and thermogenesis• Form channels through the membrane and • Cconduct protons from intermembrane space

to matrix– UCP1 Thermogenin in brown adipose tissue– UCP2 , UCP3 , UCP4 , UCP5 in other tissues

OxPhos Diseases• DNA in mitochondria mtDNA encodes 13 subunits

of comlexes I, III and IV• High rate of mutations (10x nuclear DNA)• Muta ons → Defect in oxida ve phosphorylation.

– Tissues with highest ATP demands affected most• Maternal inheritance• Accumulation of somatic mutations with age• Examples:- Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy

-myoclonic epilepsy and ragged-red fiber disease (MERRF)
