Depletion of NDUFS4 changes the assembly status of CI. A, representative BN-polyacrylamide gel showing crippled CI monomer when Ndufs4fky/fky heart mitochondria are solubilized in 1% n-dodecyl β-maltoside (DDM; lane 2). When Ndufs4fky/fky heart mitochondria are solubilized in 1% Triton X-100 (TX100), the CI-CIII2 supercomplex (SC) can be observed (lanes 3 and 4). A large proportion of this CI-CIII2 SC is detected in the crippled state in Ndufs4fky/fky mitochondria (lane 4). B, BN-PAGE followed by Western blot with antibody against CI subunit NDUFA9 shows weaker staining and crippled status of CI (CI) monomer and CI-CIII2 (CI/CIII2) supercomplex in 1% Triton X-100-solubilized mitochondria from heart tissues of Ndufs4fky/fky mice.
