Abstract
The cytochrome bc1 complex is an oligomeric electron transfer enzyme located in the inner membrane of mitochondria and the plasma membrane of bacteria. The cytochrome bc1 complex participates in respiration in eukaryotic cells and also participates in respiration, cyclic photosynthetic electron transfer, denitrification, and nitrogen fixation in a phylogenetically diverse collection of bacteria. In all of these organisms, the cytochrome bc1 complex transfers electrons from ubiquinol to cytochrome c and links this electron transfer to translocation of protons across the membrane in which it resides, thus converting the available free energy of the oxidation-reduction reaction into an electrochemical proton gradient. The mechanism by which the cytochrome bc1 complex achieves this energy transduction is the protonmotive Q cycle. The Q cycle mechanism has been documented by extensive experimentation, and recent investigations have focused on structural features of the three redox subunits of the bc1 complex essential to the protonmotive and electrogenic activities of this membranous enzyme.

Abstract
The reduction of duroquinone (DQ) and 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-decyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DB) by NADH and ethanol was investigated in intact yeast mitochondria with good respiratory control ratios. In these mitochondria, exogenous NADH is oxidized by the NADH dehydrogenase localized on the outer surface of the inner membrane, whereas the NADH produced by ethanol oxidation in the mitochondrial matrix is oxidized by the NADH dehydrogenase localized on the inner surface of the inner membrane. The reduction of DQ by ethanol was inhibited 86% by myxothiazol; however, the reduction of DQ by NADH was inhibited 18% by myxothiazol, suggesting that protein-protein interactions between the internal (but not the external) NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase and ubiquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase (the cytochrome bc1 complex) are involved in the reduction of DQ by NADH. The reduction of DQ and DB by NADH and ethanol was also investigated in mutants of yeast lacking cytochrome b, the iron-sulfur protein, and ubiquinone. The reduction of both quinone analogues by exogenous NADH was reduced to levels that were 10 to 20% of those observed in wild-type mitochondria; however, the rate of their reduction by ethanol in the mutants was equal to or greater than that observed in the wild-type mitochondria. Furthermore, the reduction of DQ in the cytochrome b and iron-sulfur protein lacking mitochondria was myxothiazol sensitive, suggesting that neither of these proteins is an essential binding site for myxothiazol. The mitochondria from the three mutants also contained significant amounts of antimycin- and myxothiazol-insensitive NADH:cytochrome c reductase activity, but had no detectable succinate:cytochrome c reductase activity. These results suggest that the mutants lacking a functional cytochrome bc1 complex have adapted to oxidize NADH.

Abstract
The cytochrome bc1 complex is the most widely occurring electron transfer complex capable of energy transduction. Cytochrome bc1 complexes are found in the plasma membranes of phylogenetically diverse photosynthetic and respiring bacteria, and in the inner mitochondrial membrane of all eucaryotic cells. In all of these species the bc1 complex transfers electrons from a low-potential quinol to a higher-potential c-type cytochrome and links this electron transfer to proton translocation. Most bacteria also possess alternative pathways of quinol oxidation capable of circumventing the bc1 complex, but these pathways generally lack the energy-transducing, protontranslocating activity of the bc1 complex. All cytochrome bc1 complexes contain three electron transfer proteins which contain four redox prosthetic groups. These are cytochrome b, which contains two b heme groups that differ in their optical and thermodynamic properties; cytochrome c1, which contains a covalently bound c-type heme; and a 2Fe-2S iron-sulfur protein. The mechanism which links proton translocation to electron transfer through these proteins is the proton motive Q cycle, and this mechanism appears to be universal to all bc1 complexes. Experimentation is currently focused on understanding selected structure-function relationships prerequisite for these redox proteins to participate in the Q-cycle mechanism. The cytochrome bc1 complexes of mitochondria differ from those of bacteria, in that the former contain six to eight supernumerary polypeptides, in addition to the three redox proteins common to bacteria and mitochondria. These extra polypeptides are encoded in the nucleus and do not contain redox prosthetic groups. The functions of the supernumerary polypeptides of the mitochondrial bc1 complexes are generally not known and are being actively explored by genetically manipulating these proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
A strain of yeast lacking the gene for the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (RIP) of the cytochrome b-c1 complex was used to study the assembly of this complex in the mitochondrial membrane. This strain lacks the mRNA for the iron-sulfur protein as evidenced by both Northern hybridization using a probe containing the coding region of the gene plus in vitro translation of total RNA followed by immunoprecipitation with a specific antibody against the iron-sulfur protein. In addition, isolated mitochondria from this strain lacked cytochrome c reductase activity with either succinate or the decyl analog of ubiquinol as substrate. Immunoblotting studies with antiserum against the cytochrome b-c1 complex revealed that mitochondria from the iron-sulfur protein-deficient strain have levels of core protein I, core protein II, and cytochrome c1 equal to those of wild-type mitochondria; however, a decrease in cytochrome b was evident from both immunoblotting and spectral analysis. Moreover, it is evident from the immunoprecipitates of radiolabeled mitochondria that the amounts of the low-molecular-weight subunits (17, 14, and 11 kDa) are decreased 53, 65, and 50%, respectively, in mitochondria lacking the iron-sulfur protein. These results suggest that the iron-sulfur protein is required for the complete assembly of the low-molecular-weight subunits into the cytochrome b-c1 complex.

Abstract
The reduction of duroquinone (DQ), 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-decyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DB), and dichlorophenol indophenol (DCIP) by succinate and NADH was investigated in yeast mitochondria which have no spectrally detectable cytochrome b. Succinate reduces DB in the cytochrome b-deficient mitochondria at rates comparable to that observed in wild-type mitochondria, suggesting that succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase is unaffected by the lack of cytochrome b. In the mutant mitochondria, succinate does not reduce DQ or DCIP at significant rates; however, NADH reduces both DQ and DCIP at rates similar to that of the wild-type mitochondria in a myxothiazol, but not antimycin, sensitive reaction. The Ki for myxothiazol in this reaction is close to that for electron transfer through the cytochrome b-c1 complex. In addition, myxothiazol does not inhibit NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase. These results confirm our previous suggestion that the cytochrome b-c1 complex is involved in electron transfer from the primary dehydrogenases to DQ and DCIP and suggest that cytochrome b is not the binding site for myxothiazol.

Abstract
The interaction of the exogenous quinones, duroquinone (DQ) and the decyl analogue of ubiquinone (DB) with the mitochondrial respiratory chain was studied in both wild-type and a ubiquinone-deficient mutant of yeast. DQ can be reduced directly by NADH dehydrogenase, but cannot be reduced by succinate dehydrogenase in the absence of endogenous ubiquinone. The succinate-driven reduction of DQ can be stimulated by DB in a reaction inhibited 50% by antimycin and 70-80% by the combined use of antimycin and myxothiazol, suggesting that electron transfer occurs via the cytochrome b-c1 complex. Both DQ and DB can effectively mediate the reduction of cytochrome b by the primary dehydrogenases through center o, but their ability to mediate the reduction of cytochrome b through center i is negligible. Two reaction sites for ubiquinol seem to be present at center o: one is independent of endogenous Q6 with a high reaction rate and a high Km; the other is affected by endogenous Q6 and has a low reaction rate and a low Km. By contrast, only one ubiquinol reaction site was observed at center i, where DB appears to compete with endogenous Q6. DB can oxidize most of the pre-reduced cytochrome b, while DQ can oxidize only 50%. On the basis of these data, the possible binding patterns of DB on different Q-reaction sites and the requirement for ubiquinone in the continuous oxidation of DQH are discussed.

Abstract
There is a renewed interest in the structure and functioning of the mitochondrial respiratory chain with the realization that a number of genetic disorders result from defects in mitochondrial electron transfer. These socalled mitochondrial myopathies include diseases of muscle, heart, and brain. The respiratory chain can be fractionated into four large multipeptide complexes, an NADH ubiquinone reductase (complex I), succinate ubiquinone reductase (complex II), ubiquinol oxidoreductase (complex III), and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV). Mitochondrial myopathies involving each of these complexes have been described. This review summarizes compositional and structural data on the respiratory chain proteins and describes the arrangement of these complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane. This biochemical information is provided as a framework for the diagnosis and molecular characterization of mitochondrial diseases.

Abstract
The level of core protein I and subunit VI of mitochondrial complex III (which are coded by the nuclear genome) was found to be greatly diminished in a yeast strain carrying a mutation (W7) in the mitochondrial gene coding for cytochrome b. This suggests that intricate interactions occur in complex III biogenesis between proteins of cytoplasmic and mitochondrial origin. This mutant was characterized by a low cytochrome b level and a loss of activity in the b-c1 segment of the respiratory chain. It was compared to another mutant showing similar biochemical characteristics, but which had integrated core protein I, as shown by antibody binding experiments. In mutant devoid of core protein I, cytochrome b was found to be reducible by NADH but not by succinate, suggesting two different electron transfer pathways inside comples III from each substrate to cytochrome b heme(s).

Abstract
The effect of cytochrome b on the assembly of the subunits of complex III into the inner mitochondrial membrane has been studied in a mutant of yeast (W-267, Box 6-2) that lacks a spectrally detectable cytochrome b and synthesizes a shortened form of apocytochrome b. We recently reported that several cytochrome b-deficient mutants contained significantly diminished amounts of core proteins I and II as well as the iron-sulfur protein, but contained equal amounts of cytochrome c1 compared to the wild type (K. Sen and D. S. Beattie, Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 242, 393-401, 1985). In the present study, the time course of processing of precursors of both core protein I and the iron-sulfur protein which had accumulated in cells treated with the uncoupler carbonyl m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP) was noted to be significantly lower in the mutant compared to the wild type. The amounts of the mature forms of these proteins in mitochondria pulse labeled under different conditions was also considerably decreased at all times studied. The synthesis of both proteins appeared to be unaffected in the mutant, as the precursor forms of both proteins accumulated to the same extent when processing in vivo was blocked by CCCP. Furthermore, translation of RNA in a reticulocyte lysate in vitro indicated that the messenger RNAs for both proteins were present in the mutant and translated with equal efficiency. The import into isolated mitochondria of the precursor forms of the iron-sulfur protein synthesized in the cell-free system was also decreased in the mutant mitochondria. In addition, the precursor form was bound to the exterior of the mitochondrial membrane where it was sensitive to digestion with proteases. By contrast, the synthesis and processing of cytochrome c1 appeared to be unaffected in these mutants. These results suggest that cytochrome b is necessary for the proper processing and assembly of both core protein I and the iron-sulfur protein, but not for cytochrome c1, into complex III of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Abstract
The current model of the protonmotive ubiquinone cycle as applied to mitochondrial ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex (Complex III) is able to explain a number of previously puzzling observations concerning electron-transfer and proton translocating functions of the complex. However, a number of pertinent experimental observations concerning the structure and function of this complex cannot as yet be incorporated into the present version of the ubiquinone cycle. The yet unresolved problems of electron transfer uncovered by these observations include some kinetic and thermodynamic problems, uncertainties in the binding site(s) and mode of binding of ubiquinol and inhibitors, the observed multiple spectroscopic, electrochemical, and kinetic forms of cytochromes b, iron-sulfur protein, and cytochrome c1, the multiple and overlapping effects of inhibitors, and the functional role of conformational changes in the complex. It is concluded that although the Q cycle is a valuable base for the design of future experiments, its mechanism must be reconciled with the above uncertainties as well as with the accumulated evidence that Complex III can exist in two or more interchangeable forms, exhibiting different properties with respect to electron-transfer pathways, inhibitor binding, and spectral and electrochemical properties of the electron-carrier subunits.

Abstract
Mitochondria isolated from coenzyme Q deficient yeast cells had no detectable NADH:cytochrome c reductase or succinate:cytochrome c reductase activity but contained normal amounts of cytochromes b and c1 by spectral analysis. Addition of the exogenous coenzyme Q derivatives including Q2, Q6, and the decyl analogue (DB) restored the rate of antimycin- and myxothiazole-sensitive cytochrome c reductase with both substrates to that observed with reduced DBH2. Similarly, addition of these coenzyme Q analogues increased 2-3-fold the rate of cytochrome c reduction in mitochondria from wild-type cells, suggesting that the pool of coenzyme Q in the membrane is limiting for electron transport in the respiratory chain. Preincubation of mitochondria from the Q-deficient yeast cells with DBH2 at 25 degrees C restored electrogenic proton ejection, resulting in a H+/2e- ratio of 3.35 as compared to a ratio of 3.22 observed in mitochondria from the wild-type cell. Addition of succinate and either coenzyme Q6 or DB to mitochondria from the Q-deficient yeast cells resulted in the initial reduction of cytochrome b followed by a slow reduction of cytochrome c1 with a reoxidation of cytochrome b. The subsequent addition of antimycin resulted in the oxidant-induced extrareduction of cytochrome b and concomitant oxidation of cytochrome c1 without the "red" shift observed in the wild-type mitochondria. Similarly, addition of antimycin to dithionite-reduced mitochondria from the mutant cells did not result in a red shift in the absorption maximum of cytochrome b as was observed in the wild-type mitochondria in the presence or absence of exogenous coenzyme Q analogues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of cytochrome b on the assembly of the subunits of complex III into the inner mitochondrial membrane has been studied in four mutants of yeast that lack a spectrally detectable cytochrome b and do not synthesize apocytochrome b. Quantitative analysis of intact mitochondria by immunoprecipitation or immunoblotting techniques with specific antisera revealed that the core proteins and the iron-sulfur protein were decreased 50% or more in the mitochondria from the mutants as compared to the wild type. Sonication of wild-type mitochondria did not result in any decrease in any of these proteins from the membrane; however, sonication of mitochondria from the four mutants resulted in a further decrease in the amount of these proteins suggesting that they are not as tightly bound to the mitochondrial membrane in the absence of cytochrome b. By contrast, the amounts of cytochrome c1 in the mitochondria, as determined both spectroscopically and immunologically, were not significantly affected by the absence of cytochrome b. In addition, no loss of cytochrome c1 was observed after sonication of the mitochondria suggesting that this protein is tightly bound to the membrane. These results suggest that the processing and/or assembly of these subunits of complex III into the mitochondrial membrane is affected by the absence of cytochrome b.

Abstract
In the presence of ascorbate, hexaamineruthenium mediates rapid reduction of cytochrome b-562 in submitochondrial particles but not in mitochondria. The reaction is observed in the combined presence of antimycin (or funiculosin) and myxothiazol, which implies direct interaction of Ru(NH3)2+6 with b cytochrome(s). We assume that contrary to previous conclusions (Case and Leigh (1976) Biochem. J., 160, 769-783) redox centre of at least one of the oxidized cytochromes b, most probably of b-562, is exposed to the M-aqueous phase.

Abstract
2-Hydroxy-3-undecyl-1,4-naphthoquinone is a quinone analogue that inhibits mitochondrial respiration in the cytochrome b-c1 region with an apparent Ki of 2.5 X 10(-7) M. In electron transport particles, it prevents the reduction of cytochrome c1 by succinate but not its oxidation by oxygen and prevents oxidation of cytochrome b but not its reduction by succinate. The analogue increases the amount of steady-state cytochrome b reduction in actively respiring particles. It inhibits oxidant-induced reduction of cytochrome b in the presence of antimycin. Inhibition of succinate oxidase activity in electron transport particles is independent of the pH of the suspending medium while at pH values above 8 with mitochondria, inhibition decreases. Since the apparent pK of the bound quinone is pH 6.6, the pH dependency of the inhibition is likely due to the pK of the Rieske iron-sulfur center (pH 8). The Rieske center and thus the quinone binding site are located on the cytoplasmic face of the inner membrane.
