The aerobic respiratory chain of Vibrio alginolyticus possesses two different kinds of NADH oxidase systems, i.e., an $Na^{+}$-dependent NADH oxidase system and an $Na^{+}$-independent NADH oxidase system. When deamino-NADH, which is the only substrate for the $Na^{+}$-dependent NADH oxidase system, was used as a substrate, the maximum activities of $N^{+}$-dependent NADH: quinone oxidoreductase and $Na^{+}$-dependent NADH oxidase were obtained at about 0.06 M and 0.2 M NaCl, respectively. When NADH, which is a substrate for both $Na^{+}$-dependent and $Na^{+}$-independent NADH oxidase systems was used as a substrate, the NADH oxidase activity had a pH optimum at about 8.0. In cGntrastl when deamino-NADH was used as a substrate, the NADH oxidase activity had a pH optimum at about 9.0. On the other handle inside-out membrane vesicles prepared from the wild-type bacterium generated only a very small $\Delta$pH by the NADH oxidase system, whereas inside-out membrane vesicles prepared from Napl, which is a mutant defective in the $Na^{+}$ pump, generated $\Delta$pH to a considerable extent by the NADH oxidase system. On the basis of the results\ulcorner it was concluded that the respiratory chain-linked components of V. atginotyticus affect each other.

Bifidobacteria의 효과적인 이용을 위해서는 산소에 내성을 갖는 균주를 선발하는 연구 외에도 산소 스트레스에 대한 방어 기작에 대한 기초적인 연구가 필요하다. 인체로부터 분리된 산소 내성 bifidobacteria는 산소제거활성을 가지고 있었으며 이는 열처리 및 극단적인 pH(pH 2.0)하에서 산소제거활성이 소실되는 것으로 보아 효소가 관여 할 가능성을 확인하였다. 또한 산소제거활성을 보이는 주된 효소를 탐색해본 결과 NADH를 공급하였을 때만 산소제거활성을 보여 NADH oxidase가 주된 역할을 하는 효소임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 산소 내성 균주는 높은 NADH peroxidase 활성을 보유한 것으로 보아 NADH oxidase의 작용에 의해 생성되는 $H_2O_2$는 NADH peroxidase에 의해 무독화 되는 것으로 판단되었다. 배양 중 산소를 공급하여 산소스트레스를 주었을 경우 NADH oxidase와 NADH peroxidase 활성이 1시간 이내에 급격히 증가하였고 산소 공급 후 2시간 동안 배양액 중 용존 산소가 크게 증가하지 않았다. 산소공급 후 2시간 이상이 경과하면 NADH oxidase와 NADH peroxidase활성이 감소하고 용존 산소가 급격히 증가하였고 산소스트레스에 대한 방어 체계가 붕괴되는 현상이 관찰되었다. 즉, 산소 내성 bifidobacteria는 일정 한계까지는 환경중의 산소를 NADH oxidase로 제거하고 생성되는 $H_2O_2$는 NADH peroxidase에 의해 제거시키는 방어 체계를 갖고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Membranes prepared from Bacillus cereus KCTC 3674, grown aerobically on a complex medium, oxidized NADH exclusively, whereas deamino-NADH was little oxidized. The respiratory chain-linked NADH oxidase exhibited an apparent $K_m$ value of approximately $65\;{\mu}m$ for NADH. The maximum activity of the NADH oxidase was obtained at about pH 8.5 in the presence of 0.1 M KCl (or NaCl). Respiratory chain inhibitor 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide (HQNO) inhibited the activity of the NADH oxidase by about 90% at a concentration of $40\;{\mu}m$. Interestingly, rotenone and capsaicin inhibited the activity of the NADH oxidase by about 60% at a concentration of $40\;{\mu}m$ and the activity was also highly sensitive to $Ag^+$.

Membranes prepared from Vibrio natriegens oxidized both NADH and deamino-NADH as substrates. The maximum activity of the membrane-bound NADH oxidase was obtained at about pH 8.5 in the presence of 0.2 M NaCl, whereas that of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase was obtained at about pH 7.5 in the presence of 0.2 M NaCl. Electron transfer from NADH or deamino-NADH to ubiquinone-l or oxygen generated a considerable membrane potential (${\Delta}{\psi}$), which occurred even in the presence of $20{\mu}M$ carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP). However, the ${\Delta}{\psi}$ was completely collapsed by the combined addition of $10{\mu}M$ CCCP and $20{\mu}M$ monensin. On the other hand, the activity of the NADH oxidase and the ${\Delta}{\psi}$ generated by the NADH oxidase system were inhibited by about $90\%$ with $10{\mu}M$ HQNO, whereas the activity of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase and the ${\Delta}{\psi}$ generated at the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase segment were inhibited by about $60\%$. Interestingly, the activity of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase and the ${\Delta}{\psi}$ generated at the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase segment were resistant to the respiratory chain inhibitors such as rotenone, capsaicin, and $AgNO_3$, and the activity of the NADH oxidase and the ${\Delta}{\psi}$ generated by the NADH oxidase system were very sensitive only to $AgNO_3$. It was concluded, therefore, that V. natriegens cells possess a $AgNO_3$-resistant respiratory $Na^+$ pump that is different from the $AgNO_3$-sensitive respiratory $Na^+$ pump of a marine bacterium, Vibrio alginolyticus.

호기적으로 자란 Bacillus cereus KCTC 3674로 부터 조제된 막은 NADH만을 산화하고, deamino-NADH는 거의 산화하지 않았다. 호흡쇄와 연계된 NADH oxidase계는 $K_m$ 값이 약 $65\;{\mu}M$ 이였다. NADH:DCIP oxidoreductase의 활성은 $Na^+$또는 $K^+$에 의해 감소되었다. 그 최적 pH는 5.5 였다. NADH:DCIP oxidoreductase의 활성은 rotenone, capsaicin, $AgNO_3$와 같은 호흡저해제에는 매우 저항적 이 였지만, $40{\mu}M$ HQNO (2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide) 존재하에서는 약 40% 저해되었다. 이들 결과로 부터, Bacillus cereus KCTC 3674의 호기적 호흡쇄와 연계된 NADH oxidase계는 energy coupling site가 결여된 HQNO-sensitive NADH:DCIP oxidoreductase를 소유하고 있는 것으로 추정된다.

The Gram-negative marine bacterium Marinomonas vaga, which requires 0.5 M NaCl concentration for optimal growth, is slightly halophilic. The growth of M vaga was highly resistant to the proton conductor, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) under alkaline pH conditions (pH 8.5) but very sensitive to CCCP under acidic pH conditions (pH 6.5). These results suggest that the respiratory chain-linked NADH oxidase system of M. vaga may lead to generation of a $Na^{+}$ electrochemical gradient. In order to examine the existence of $Na^{+}$-stimulated NADH oxidase in M. vaga, membrane fractions were prepared by the osmotic lysis method. The membrane-bound NADH oxidase oxidized both NADH and deamino-NADH as substrates and required $Na^{+}$ for maximum activity. The maximum activity of NADH oxidase was obtained at about pH 8.5 in the presence of 0.2 M NaCl. The site of $Na^{+}$-dependent activation in the NADH oxidase system was at the NADH:quinone oxidoreductase segment. The NADH oxidase and NADH:quinone oxidoreductase were very sensitive to the respiratory chain inhibitor, 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide (HQNO) in the presence of 0.2 M NaCl but highly resistant to another respiratory inhibitor, rotenone. Based on these findings, we conclude that M. vaga possesses the $Na^{+}$-dependent NADH:quinone oxidoreductase that may function as an electrogenic $Na^{+}$ pump.

A gene (PH0311) encoding a hypothetical protein from the genome sequence data of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 was cloned and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified recombinant protein was found to possess FAD-dependent NADH oxidase activity, although it lacked sequence homology to any other known general NADH oxidase family. The product of the PH0311 gene was thus designated PhNOX (NADH oxidase from Pyrococcus horikoshii), with an estimated molecular weight of 84 kDa by gel filtration and 22 kDa by SDS-PAGE, indicating it to be a homotetramer of 22 kDa subunits. PhNOX catalyzed the oxidation of reduced ${\beta}$-NADH with subsequent formation of $H_2O_2$ in the presence of FAD as a cofactor, but not ${\alpha}$-NADH, ${\alpha}$-NADPH, or ${\beta}$-NADPH. PhNOX showed high affinity for ${\beta}$-NADH with a Km value of 3.70 ${\mu}$M and exhibited optimum activity at pH 8.0 and 95$^{\circ}C$ as it is highly stable against high temperature.

호기적으로 자란 Bacillus cereus KCTC 3674로 부터 조제된 막은 NADH만을 산화하고, deamino-NADH는 거의 산화하지 않았다. 호홉쇄와 연계된 NADH oxidase계는 $K_m$ 값이 약 65 ${\mu}M$이였다. 한편, NADH oxidase계 중 NADH: menadione oxidoreductase의 효소학적 특성이 조사되었다. NADH: menadione oxidoreductase의 최고활성은 0.1 M KCl (또는 NaCl) 존재 하에서 pH 9.5에서 얻어졌다. NADH: menadione oxidoreductase의 활성은 rotenone, capsaicin, $AgN0_3$와 같은 호흡저해제에 매우 저항적이였다. 그러나 매우 흥미롭게도 NADH: menadione oxidoreductase의 활성은 HQNO (2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide)와 같은 저해제에 의해서는 오히려 촉진되어 졌다.

The enzymatic properties of NADH:quinone oxidoreductase were examined in Triton X-100 extracts of Bacillus cereus membranes by using the artificial electron acceptors ubiquinone-1 and menadione. Membranes were prepared from B. cereus KCTC 3674 grown aerobically on a complex medium and oxidized with NADH exclusively, whereas deamino-NADH was determined to be poorly oxidized. The NADH oxidase activity was lost completely by solubilization of the membranes with Triton X-100. However, by using the artificial electron acceptors ubiquinone-1 and menadione, NADH oxidation could be observed. The activities of NADH:ubiquinone-1 and NADH:menadione oxidoreductase were enhanced approximately 8-fold and 4-fold, respectively, from the Triton X-100 extracted membranes. The maximum activity of FAD-dependent NADH:ubiquinone-1 oxidoreductase was obtained at about pH 6.0 in the presence of 0.1M NaCl, while the maximum activity of FAD-dependent NADH:menadione oxidoreductase was obtained at about pH 8.0 in the presence of 0.1M NaCl. The activities of the NADH:ubiquinone-1 and NADH:menadione oxidoreductase were very resistant to such respiratory chain inhibitors as rotenone, capsaicin, and $AgNO_3$, whereas these activities were sensitive to 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide (HQNO). Based on these results, we suggest that the aerobic respiratory chain-linked NADH oxidase system of B. cereus KCTC 3674 possesses an HQNO-sensitive NADH:quinone oxidoreductase that lacks an energy coupling site containing FAD as a cofactor.
