Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate the radical oxygen-suppression mechanism of mitochondrial type-II NADH dehydrogenase (NDH-2), we investigated biochemical properties of NDH-2 and its Thr239 mutant which have relatively high non-physiological NADH oxidase activity compared with wild type enzyme. By the kinetics, spectrographic and physicochemical analysis, it was strongly suggested that the formation of the charge-transfer complex between FAD-semiquinone, which is generated in the enzyme reaction process, and substrate NADH is responsible for the suppression of radical oxygen.
