Abstract

In this paper the regulatory features of complex I of mammalian and human mitochondria are reviewed. In a variety of mitotic cell-line cultures, activation in vivo of the cAMP cascade, or direct addition of cAMP, promotes the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase activity of complex I and lower the cellular level of ROS. These effects of cAMP are found to be associated with PKA-mediated serine phosphorylation in the conserved C-terminus of the subunit of complex I encoded by the nuclear gene NDUFS4. PKA mediated phosphorylation of this Ser in the C-terminus of the protein promotes its mitochondrial import and maturation. Mass-spectrometry analysis of the phosphorylation pattern of complex I subunits is also reviewed. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
