  text: Complex I is one of the major respiratory complexes, conserved from bacteria
    to mammals. It oxidises NADH, reduces quinone and pumps protons across the membrane,
    thus playing a central role in the oxidative energy metabolism. In this review
    we discuss our current state of understanding the structure of complex I from
    various species of mammals, plants, fungi, and bacteria, as well as of several
    complex I-related proteins. By comparing the structural evidence from these systems
    in different redox states and data from mutagenesis and molecular simulations,
    we formulate the mechanisms of electron transfer and proton pumping and explain
    how they are conformationally and electrostatically coupled. Finally, we discuss
    the structural basis of the deactivation phenomenon in mammalian complex I.

  text: 'Complex I is the first enzyme in the respiratory chain, which is responsible
    for energy production in mitochondria and bacteria1. Complex I couples the transfer
    of two electrons from NADH to quinone and the translocation of four protons across
    the membrane2, but the coupling mechanism remains contentious. Here we present
    cryo-electron microscopy structures of Escherichia coli complex I (EcCI) in different
    redox states, including catalytic turnover. EcCI exists mostly in the open state,
    in which the quinone cavity is exposed to the cytosol, allowing access for water
    molecules, which enable quinone movements. Unlike the mammalian paralogues3, EcCI
    can convert to the closed state only during turnover, showing that closed and
    open states are genuine turnover intermediates. The open-to-closed transition
    results in the tightly engulfed quinone cavity being connected to the central
    axis of the membrane arm, a source of substrate protons. Consistently, the proportion
    of the closed state increases with increasing pH. We propose a detailed but straightforward
    and robust mechanism comprising a ‘domino effect’ series of proton transfers and
    electrostatic interactions: the forward wave (‘dominoes stacking’) primes the
    pump, and the reverse wave (‘dominoes falling’) results in the ejection of all
    pumped protons from the distal subunit NuoL. This mechanism explains why protons
    exit exclusively from the NuoL subunit and is supported by our mutagenesis data.
    We contend that this is a universal coupling mechanism of complex I and related
    enzymes.'

  text: Cryo-EM grid preparation is an important bottleneck in protein structure determination,
    especially for membrane proteins, typically requiring screening of a large number
    of conditions. We systematically investigated the effects of buffer components,
    blotting conditions and grid types on the outcome of grid preparation of five
    different membrane protein samples. Aggregation was the most common type of problem
    which was addressed by changing detergents, salt concentration or reconstitution
    of proteins into nanodiscs or amphipols. We show that the optimal concentration
    of detergent is between 0.05 and 0.4% and that the presence of a low concentration
    of detergent with a high critical micellar concentration protects the proteins
    from denaturation at the air-water interface. Furthermore, we discuss the strategies
    for achieving an adequate ice thickness, particle coverage and orientation distribution
    on free ice and on support films. Our findings provide a clear roadmap for comprehensive
    screening of conditions for cryo-EM grid preparation of membrane proteins.

  text: Mitochondria are sites of oxidative phosphorylation in eukaryotic cells. Oxidative
    phosphorylation operates by a chemiosmotic mechanism made possible by redox-driven
    proton pumping machines which establish a proton motive force across the inner
    mitochondrial membrane. This electrochemical proton gradient is used to drive
    ATP synthesis, which powers the majority of cellular processes such as protein
    synthesis, locomotion and signalling. In this thesis I investigate the structures
    and molecular mechanisms of two inner mitochondrial proton pumping enzymes, respiratory
    complex I and transhydrogenase. I present the first high-resolution structure
    of the full transhydrogenase from any species, and a significantly improved structure
    of complex I. Improving the resolution from 3.3 Å available previously to up to
    2.3 Å in this thesis allowed us to model bound water molecules, crucial in the
    proton pumping mechanism. For both enzymes, up to five cryo-EM datasets with different
    substrates and inhibitors bound were solved to delineate the catalytic cycle and
    understand the proton pumping mechanism. In transhydrogenase, the proton channel
    is gated by reversible detachment of the NADP(H)-binding domain which opens the
    proton channel to the opposite sites of the membrane. In complex I, the proton
    channels are gated by reversible protonation of key glutamate and lysine residues
    and breaking of the water wire connecting the proton pumps with the quinone reduction
    site. The tight coupling between the redox and the proton pumping reactions in
    transhydrogenase is achieved by controlling the NADP(H) exchange which can only
    happen when the NADP(H)-binding domain interacts with the membrane domain. In
    complex I, coupling is achieved by cycling of the whole complex between the closed
    state, in which quinone can get reduced, and the open state, in which NADH can
    induce quinol ejection from the binding pocket. On the basis of these results
    I propose detailed mechanisms for catalytic cycles of transhydrogenase and complex
    I that are consistent with a large amount of previous work. In both enzymes, conformational
    and electrostatic mechanisms contribute to the overall catalytic process. Results
    presented here could be used for better understanding of the human pathologies
    arising from deficiencies of complex I or transhydrogenase and could be used to
    develop novel therapies.

  text: Mitochondrial complex I couples NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreduction to proton pumping
    by an unknown mechanism. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures
    of ovine complex I in five different conditions, including turnover, at resolutions
    up to 2.3 to 2.5 angstroms. Resolved water molecules allowed us to experimentally
    define the proton translocation pathways. Quinone binds at three positions along
    the quinone cavity, as does the inhibitor rotenone that also binds within subunit
    ND4. Dramatic conformational changes around the quinone cavity couple the redox
    reaction to proton translocation during open-to-closed state transitions of the
    enzyme. In the induced deactive state, the open conformation is arrested by the
    ND6 subunit. We propose a detailed molecular coupling mechanism of complex I,
    which is an unexpected combination of conformational changes and electrostatic
    interactions.

  text: Proton-translocating transhydrogenase (also known as nicotinamide nucleotide
    transhydrogenase (NNT)) is found in the plasma membranes of bacteria and the inner
    mitochondrial membranes of eukaryotes. NNT catalyses the transfer of a hydride
    between NADH and NADP+, coupled to the translocation of one proton across the
    membrane. Its main physiological function is the generation of NADPH, which is
    a substrate in anabolic reactions and a regulator of oxidative status; however,
    NNT may also fine-tune the Krebs cycle1,2. NNT deficiency causes familial glucocorticoid
    deficiency in humans and metabolic abnormalities in mice, similar to those observed
    in type II diabetes3,4. The catalytic mechanism of NNT has been proposed to involve
    a rotation of around 180° of the entire NADP(H)-binding domain that alternately
    participates in hydride transfer and proton-channel gating. However, owing to
    the lack of high-resolution structures of intact NNT, the details of this process
    remain unclear5,6. Here we present the cryo-electron microscopy structure of intact
    mammalian NNT in different conformational states. We show how the NADP(H)-binding
    domain opens the proton channel to the opposite sides of the membrane, and we
    provide structures of these two states. We also describe the catalytically important
    interfaces and linkers between the membrane and the soluble domains and their
    roles in nucleotide exchange. These structures enable us to propose a revised
    mechanism for a coupling process in NNT that is consistent with a large body of
    previous biochemical work. Our results are relevant to the development of currently
    unavailable NNT inhibitors, which may have therapeutic potential in ischaemia
    reperfusion injury, metabolic syndrome and some cancers7,8,9.
