Localization of the NADH kinase in the inner membrane of yeast mitochondria.
The bulk of NADH kinase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was recovered in the mitochondrial fraction prepared from spheroplasts. Most of the NADH kinase was localized in the inner membrane fraction, which was separated from other mitochondrial components by the combined swelling, shrinking, and sonication procedure. Treatment of mitoplasts with antiserum against the NADH kinase caused inactivation of the enzyme. On the contrary, no influence was observed upon the same treatment of intact mitochondria. p-Chloromercuribenzoate and eosin-5-maleimide inactivated the enzyme without affecting the matrix ATPase. The NADH kinase was enzymatically iodinated in mitoplasts, but not in the intact mitochondria. These results support the conclusion that NADH kinase is localized and functions at the intermembrane space side of the mitochondrial inner membrane. It is evident that the NADH kinase is encoded by nuclear gene(s) because it is synthesized in the presence of chloramphenicol or acriflavine, and a significant amount of the enzyme was detected in mitochondrial DNA-deficient mutants.
