Bongkrekic acid analogue, lacking one of the carboxylic groups of its parent compound, shows moderate but pH-insensitive inhibitory effects on the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier. Chem Biol Drug Des 2015; 86:1304-22. [PMID: 26032198 DOI: 10.1111/cbdd.12594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2015] [Revised: 05/18/2015] [Accepted: 05/27/2015] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Bongkrekic acid, isolated from Burkholderia cocovenenans, is known to specifically inhibit the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier. However, the manner of its interaction with the carrier remains elusive. In this study, we tested the inhibitory effects of 17 bongkrekic acid analogues, derived from the intermediates obtained during its total synthesis, on the mitochondrial ATP/ATP carrier. Rough screening of these chemicals, performed by measuring their inhibitory effects on the mitochondrial ATP synthesis, revealed that 4 of them, KH-1, KH-7, KH-16, and KH-17, had moderate inhibitory effects. Further characterization of the actions of these 4 analogues on mitochondrial function showed that KH-16 had moderate; KH-1 and KH-17, weak; and KH-7, negligible side effects of both permeabilization of the mitochondrial inner membrane and inhibition of the electron transport, indicating that only KH-7 had a specific inhibitory effect on the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier. Although the parental bongkrekic acid showed a strong pH dependency of its action, the inhibitory effect of KH-7 was almost insensitive to the pH of the reaction medium, indicating the importance of the 3 carboxyl groups of bongkrekic acid for its pH-dependent action. A direct inhibitory effect of KH-7 on the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier was also clearly demonstrated.

The structure of the second cytosolic loop of the yeast mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier AAC2 is dependent on the conformational state. Mitochondrion 2006; 6:245-51. [PMID: 16962388 DOI: 10.1016/j.mito.2006.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2005] [Revised: 07/13/2006] [Accepted: 07/24/2006] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
To detect structural changes in the second cytosolic loop of the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier of Saccharomyces cerevisiae AAC2, we prepared 20 single cysteine mutants by replacing each amino acid in the S213 to L232 region. All single cysteine mutants were fully functional, because they could restore growth on glycerol of a yeast strain lacking functional ADP/ATP carriers. First, these single-Cys mutants were treated with carboxyatractyloside to lock the carrier in the cytosolic state or with bongkrekic acid to generate the matrix state, and then with the membrane-impermeable SH reagent eosin-5-maleimide (EMA) to probe accessibility. The amino acid residues S213C, L214C, F231C and L232C were not labeled, indicating that these 4 residues must have been buried in the membrane, whereas the region between residues K215 and S230 is accessible to labeling and must, therefore, have protruded into the aqueous phase. Residue L218C showed strong resistance against EMA labeling regardless of the state of the carrier, but the reason for such behavior is unclear. On the contrary, the labeling of the residues between F227C and S230C was strongly dependent on the state of the carrier. Thus, the C-terminal region of the second cytosolic loop in AAC2 changes its environment when the carrier cycles between the matrix and cytosolic state.

Abstract
We isolated highly intact and tightly coupled mitochondria from the rat ascites hepatoma cell line AH130 by disruption of the cell membrane by nitrogen cavitation. These isolated mitochondria were found to have essentially the same functional properties as rat liver mitochondria, but unlike the latter, hexokinase (HK) was bound to their membrane. Using the tumor mitochondrial preparation, we examined the source of ATP for phosphorylation of glucose by HK under conditions in which intra- and extramitochondrial ATP-generation systems operated separately or together. Results showed that the membrane-bound HK utilized ATP derived from the most efficiently operating ATP generation system, i.e., oxidative phosphorylation. However, when the rate of extramitochondrial ATP generation was much greater than that of oxidative phosphorylation, HK used ATP from the extramitochondrial ATP-generation system.

Abstract
The phosphate (Pi)-dependent uncoupling action of Cd2+ in oxidative phosphorylation in rat liver mitochondria was studied mainly in terms of Pi transport. Cd2+ at 2 microM caused full uncoupling in the presence of 10 mM Pi, but no uncoupling in the absence of Pi. Cd2+ released state 4 respiration after a certain lag-time, and then the respiration increased progressively with time. After its addition, Cd2+ was taken up by mitochondria in a similar period to the lag time before respiratory release. KIH-201, a potent and specific inhibitor of Pi transport via the Pi/H+ symporter, abolished the uncoupling completely. Cd2+ caused dissipation of the electric transmembrane potential (delta psi) and swelling of mitochondria in a Pi-dependent manner. Uncoupling by Cd2+ was found to take place in parallel with the uptake of Pi into mitochondria via the Pi/H+ symporter, suggesting that the uncoupling was due to acceleration of H+ influx through the Pi/H+ symporter activated by Cd2+.

Abstract
The effect of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) on the response of isolated rat liver mitochondria to Ca2+ was investigated. DEHP was found to inhibit more than 60% of the auto-accelerating release of respiration induced by 100 microM Ca2+, being maximally inhibitory at 40 microM. Prior addition of DEHP also partially inhibited Ca2+-induced swelling of the mitochondrial matrix. However, DEHP did not change the net rate of Ca2+ uptake measured by the steady-state infusion method. DEHP also reduced the rate of adenine nucleotide exchange across the mitochondrial membrane. Another alkyl phthalate and alkyl citrates had similar effects on Ca2+-induced membrane damage, but their potencies depended on the lengths of their alkyl chains. These results suggest that the effects of DEHP and other alkyl esters on mitochondrial functions are mainly based on their actions on membrane lipids surrounding adenine nucleotide translocator (AdNT), resulting in alteration of the interaction between these phospholipids and AdNT, and consequent modification of the state of the protein.

Abstract
The effects of the arylidene-cyclopentenedione radiosensitizers, KIH-200, 201 and 202 on ATP synthesis in mitochondria were examined. In spite of the close similarity of their chemical structure to that of the most potent known weakly acidic uncoupler, SF 6847, they did not show any uncoupling activity at concentrations of up to 50 microM. However, these three compounds were found to have very potent inhibitory effects on Pi-transport into mitochondria, all causing 50% inhibition (I50%) at about 7 microM. Thus they are much more potent than the commonly used Pi-transport inhibitors N-ethylmaleimide (I50% = about 40 microM), and mersalyl (I50% = about 30 microM). They may act as SH-reagents, and inhibit Pi-transport by modifying an SH-group(s) in the Pi-transporter.
