A mutation in the NADH-dehydrogenase subunit 2 suppresses fibroblast aging

Abstract: Mutations of mitochondrial (mt)DNA cause a variety of human diseases and are implicated in premature aging syndromes. Here we investigated a single nucleotide exchange (leucine to methionine) at position nt4738 in the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (Nd2) gene of the respiratory chain. Primary fibroblasts derived from the conplastic mouse strain C57BL/6J-mtALR/LTJ with mutant enzyme, possessed high enzyme activity and ATP production and low ROS production. Furthermore, Nd2-mutant fibroblasts express… Show more

“…The mtALR strain harbors a SNP at position nt4738 (4738C>A) in gene MT-ND2 , causing an Leu-Met amino acid exchange in NADH coenzyme Q oxidoreductase chain 2. This mutation leads to a more than twofold up-regulation of enzyme activity and increased ATP production, at least in fibroblasts, and, further, to accelerated ageing in these fibroblasts [ 30 ]. Complex III is represented by C57BL/6J-mt 129S1/SvlmJ (mt129S1) carrying a SNP at nt15124 (15124A>G) affecting MT-CYTB which leads to an alteration of cytochrome bc1 complex III (Ile-Val exchange).…”

“…For example, conplastic rats where shown to have impaired glucose tolerance, while mice were more resistant to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [51], had disrupted activity of the components of TCA cycle [52] or altered mitochondrial and cellular adaptation during aging [53]. Moreover, the mutation in MT-ND2 gene (C4738A) in mouse fibroblasts led to significantly higher mitochondrial complex I activity, enhanced ATP production, reduced ROS production with similar MT-ND2 protein expression levels [54]. A lot of studies have shown that even a point mutation in mitochondrial genome which was introduced onto another nuclear background led to severe mitochondrial dysfunction.…”
