Mitochondrial apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) is a FAD-containing protein that under certain conditions translocates to the nucleus and causes a programmed cell death, apoptosis. The apoptogenic action of AIF is redox controlled as the NADH-reduced AIF dimer has lower affinity for DNA than the oxidized monomer. To gain further insights into the mechanism of AIF, we investigated its interaction with a series of quinone oxidants, including a number of anticancer quinones. Our data indicate that the NADH:quinone oxidoreduction catalyzed by AIF follows a “ping-pong” scheme, with the reductive half-reaction being rate-limiting and the FADH--NAD+ charge-transfer complex serving as an electron donor. AIF is equally reactive toward benzo- and naphthoquinones, but may discriminate structures with a higher number of aromatic rings. The reactivity of quinones is mainly defined by their one-electron reduction potential, whereas the size and nature of the substituents play a minor role. AIF is unlikely to significantly contribute to bioreductive activation of low-potential quinoidal anticancer quinones. However, high-potential quinones, e.g. a toxic natural compound naphthazarin, maintain AIF in the oxidized state when a significant excess of NADH is present. Thus, these compounds may prevent the accumulation of the reduced form of AIF in vivo, and enhance AIF-mediated apoptosis.
