  1. Chapter 20 Electron Transport and Oxidative Phosphorylation Biochemistry by Reginald Garrett and Charles Grisham

  2. Essential Question • How do cells oxidize NADH and [FADH2] • How do cells convert their reducing potential into the chemical energy of ATP?

  3. Outline of chapter 20 • Where in the Cell Are Electron Transport and Oxidative Phosphorylation Carried Out? • What Are Reduction Potentials, and How Are They Used to Account for Free Energy Changes in Redox Reactions? • How Is the Electron-Transport Chain Organized? • What Are the Thermodynamic Implications of Chemiosmotic Coupling? • How Does a Proton Gradient Drive the Synthesis of ATP? • What Is the P/O Ratio for Mitochondrial Electron Transport and Oxidative Phosphorylation? • How Are the Electrons of Cytosolic NADH Fed into Electron Transport?

  4. Electron Transport: • Electrons carried by reduced coenzymes, NADH or FADH2, are passed through a chain of proteins and coenzymes, finally reaching O2, the terminal electron acceptor • and to drive the generation of a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane • Oxidative Phosphorylation: • The proton gradient runs downhill to drive the synthesis of ATP

  5. 20.1 - Where in the Cell Are Electron Transport and Oxidative Phosphorylation Carried Out? • The processes of electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation are membrane associated • in bacteria, is carried out at the plasma membrane • In eukaryotic cells, happens in or at the inner mitochondrial membrane • The mitochondria is about 0.5 ± 0.3 micron in diameter and from 0.5 to several micron long

  7. Mitochondrial functions are localized in specific compartments • Outer membrane • Fatty acid elongation • Fatty acid desaturation • Phospholipid synthesis • Monoamine oxidase • Inner membrane • Electron transport • Oxidative phosphorylation • Transport system • Fatty acid transport • Intermembrane space • Creatine kinase • Adenylate kinase • Martix

  10. 20.2 – What Are Reduction Potentials, and How Are They Used to Account for Free Energy Changes in Redox Reactions? Reduction potential: • The tendency of an electron donorto reduce its conjugate acceptor • The standard reduction potential, Eo (25℃, 1 M), is the tendency of a reductant to loss an electron • The higher the standard reduction potential Eo, the higher the tendency of the oxidized membrane of a redox couple to attract electrons.

  11. An electrochemical cell consists of two falf-cells, each containing an electron donor and its conjugate acceptor Reduced donor Oxidized acceptor ne- Oxidizeddonor Reduced acceptor The hydrogen electrode (pH 0) is set at 0 volts. Negative value of Eo tends to donate electrons to H electrode Positive value of Eo tends to accept electrons from H electrode Figure 20.2Experimental apparatus used to measure the standard reduction potential of the indicated redox couples: (a) the acetaldehyde/ethanol couple, (b) the fumarate/succinate couple, (c) the Fe3+/Fe2+ couple.

  12. High Eo' indicates a strong tendency to be reduced • Crucial equation: Go' = -nFEo' Eo' = Eo'(acceptor) - Eo'(donor) F: Faraday’s constant (96.5 kJ/mol‧V) • Electrons are donated by the half reaction with the more negativereduction potential and are accepted by the reaction with the more positivereduction potential: Eo ' positive, Go' negative • If a given reaction is written so the reverse is true, then the Eo' will be a negative number and Go' will be positive

  13. Standard reduction potentials of compounds

  14. 20.3 – How Is the Electron Transport Chain Organized? NADH (reductant) + H+ + O2 (oxidant) → NAD+ + H2O Half-reaction: NAD+ + 2 H+ + 2 e- → NADH + H+ Eo'= -0.32 V ½ O2 + 2 H+ + 2 e- → H2O Eo'= +0.816 V DEo'= 0.816 – (-0.32) = 1.136 V DGo'= -219

  15. Figure 20.3Eo΄ and Evalues for the components of the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. Values indicated are consensus values for animal mitochondria. Black bars represent Eo΄; red bars, E.

  16. The Electron Transport Chain The electron-transport chain involves several different molecular species: • Flavoproteins: FAD and FMN • A lipid soluble coenzyme Q (UQ, CoQ) • A water soluble protein (cytochromec) • A number of iron-sulfur proteins: Fe2+ and Fe3+ • Protein-bound copper: Cu+ and Cu2+ All these intermediates except for cytochrome c are membrane associated

  17. Figure 20.4 An overview of the complexes and pathways in the mitochondrial electron-transport chain.

  18. Complex I Oxidizes NADH and Reduces Coenzyme Q NADH-CoQ Reductase or NADH dehydrogenase • Electron transfer from NADH to CoQ • More than 30 protein subunits - mass of 850 kD • Path: NADH  FMN  Fe-S  CoQ • Four H+ transported out per 2 e- Iron-sulfur proteins

  19. Isoprene unit 10 (Mammal) 6 (Bacteria) Figure 20.5 (a) The three oxidation states of coenzyme Q. (b) A space-filling model of coenzyme Q.

  20. Figure 20.6Proposed structure and electron transport pathway for Complex I. Three protein complexes have been isolated, including the flavoprotein (FP), iron-sulfur protein (IP), and hydrophobic protein (HP). FP contains three peptides (of mass 51, 24, and 10 kD) and bound FMN and has 2 Fe-S centers (a 2Fe-2S center and a 4Fe-4S center). IP contains six peptides and at least 3 Fe-S centers. HP contains at least seven peptides and one Fe-S center.

  21. Complex II Oxidizes Succinate and Reduces Coenzyme Q Succinate-CoQ Reductase • Also called succinate dehydrogenase or flavoprotein 2 (FP2) - FAD covalently bound • four subunits, including 2 Fe-S proteins • Three types of Fe-S cluster: 4Fe-4S, 3Fe-4S, 2Fe-2S • Path: Succinate  FADH2  2Fe2+  CoQH2 • Net reaction: succinate + CoQ  fumarate + CoQH2 DEo'= 0.029 V

  22. Figure 20.8A probable scheme for electron flow in Complex II. Oxidation of succinate occurs with reduction of [FAD]. Electrons are then passed to Fe-S centers and then to coenzyme Q (UQ). Proton transport does not occur in this complex.

  23. Figure 20.7The fatty acyl-CoA dehydrogenase reaction, emphasizing that the reaction involves reduction of enzyme-bound FAD (indicated by brackets).

  24. Complex III Mediates Electron Transport from Coenzyme Q to Cytochrome c CoQ-Cytochrome c Reductase • CoQ passes electrons to cyt c (and pumps H+) in a unique redox cycle known as the Q cycle • The principal transmembrane protein in complex III is the b cytochrome - with hemes bL and bH • Cytochromes, like Fe in Fe-S clusters, are one- electron transfer agents • The Q cycle • CoQH2 is a lipid-soluble electron carrier • cyt c is a water-soluble mobile electron carrier

  29. Complex IV Transfers Electrons from Cytochrome c to Reduce Oxygen on the Matrix Side Cytochrome c Oxidase • Electrons from cyt c are used in a four-electron reduction of O2 to produce 2 H2O 4 cyt c (Fe2+) + 4 H+ + O2→ 4 cyt c (Fe3+) + 2 H2O • Oxygen is thus the terminal acceptor of electrons in the electron transport pathway • Cytochrome c oxidase utilizes 2 hemes (a and a3) and 2 copper sites (CuA and CuB) • Complex IV also transports 2 H+

  31. Figure 20.16Molecular graphic image of cytochrome c oxidase. Seven of the 10 nuclear DNA-derived subunits (IV, VIa, VIc, VIIa, VIIb, VIIc, and VIII) possess transmembrane segments. Three (Va, Vb, and VIb) do not. Subunits IV and VIc are transmembrane and dumbbell-shaped. Subunit Va is globular and bound to the matrix side of the complex, whereas VIb is a globular subunit on the cytosolic side of the membrane complex. Vb is globular and matrix-side associated as well, but it has an N-terminal extended domain. VIa has a transmembrane helix and a small globular domain. Subunit VIIa consists of a tilted transmembrane helix, with another short helical segment on the matrix side of the membrane. Subunits VIIa, VIIb, and VIII consist of transmembrane segments with short extended regions outside the membrane.

  37. 20.4 – What Are the Thermodynamic Implications of Chemiosmotic Coupling? • Peter Mitchell proposed a novel idea - a proton gradient across the inner membrane could be used to drive ATP synthesis (Nobel prize in 1978) H+in H +out DG = RT ln [C2]/[C1] + ZFDy DG = RT ln [H +out]/[H +in] + ZFDy DG = RT ln DpH + ZFDy Z : the charge on a proton Dy : the potential difference across the membrane

  38. 20.5 – How Does a Proton Gradient Drive the Synthesis of ATP? Proton diffusion through the ATP synthase drives ATP synthesis • Also called F1F0-ATPase • Consists of two complexes: F1 and F0 • F1 catlyzes ATP synthesis • F0 An integral membrane protein attached to F1 • See Figure 20.25 and Table 20.3 for details

  39. Figure 20.24Molecular graphic images (a) side view and (b) top view of the F1-ATP synthase showing the individual component peptides. The g-subunit is the pink structure visible in the center of view (b).

  40. 20.5 – How Does a Proton Gradient Drive the Synthesis of ATP? • The catalytic sites are in the b-subunits • A ring of c-subunits could form a rotor that turns with respect to the a-subunit, a stator • g is anchored to the c-subunit rotor, then the c rotor-g complex can rotate together relative to the (ab) complex

  41. Figure 20.26ATP production in the presence of a proton gradient and ATP/ADP exchange in the absence of a proton gradient. Exchange leads to incorporation of 18O in phosphate as shown.

  42. Figure 20.27The binding change mechanism for ATP synthesis by ATP synthase. This model assumes that F1 has three interacting and conformationally distinct active sites. The open (O) conformation is inactive and has a low affinity for ligands; the L conformation (with “loose” affinity for ligands) is also inactive; the tight (T) conformation is active and has a high affinity for ligands. Synthesis of ATP is initiated (step 1) by binding of ADP and Pi to an L site. In the second step, an energy-driven conformational change converts the L site to a T conformation and also converts T to O and O to L. In the third step, ATP is synthesized at the T site and released from the O site. Two additional passes through this cycle produce two more ATPs and return the enzyme to its original state.

  44. Inhibitors of Oxidative Phosphorylation Reveal Insights About the Mechanism • Rotenone inhibits Complex I - and helps natives of the Amazon rain forest catch fish • Cyanide (CN-), azide (N3-) and CO inhibit Complex IV, binding tightly to the ferric form (Fe3+) of a3 • Oligomycin and DCCD are ATP synthase inhibitors
