Identification of NADPH-thioredoxin reductase system in Euglena gracillis.
Euglena gracilis contains a protein system which can utilize the reducing power of NADPH in the ribonucleotide reductase-catalyzed reduction of CTP. The proteins required for this reaction are a flavoprotien with a molecular weight of approximately 185,000 which is functionally similar to thioredoxin reductase (NADPH), EC 1.6.4.5, and another protein (Protein I) whose function in the reaction i...
متن کاملNADPH-Dependent Thioredoxin Reductase and a New Thioredoxin from Wheat
An albumin fraction extracted from wheat flour contains thioredoxin reductase (Mr = 65,000) and a heat-stable thioredoxin (Mr = 15,000) which are separated on DEAE cellulose and further purified by gel filtration. W heat thioredoxin stimulates E. coli ribonucleotide reductase but not chloroplast fructose-bis-phosphatase. The enzyme is NADPH-dependent (Km = 3.2 X 10 -6 m) . In presence of the th...
متن کاملCharacterization and physiological function of glutathione reductase in Euglena gracilis z.
The purified glutathione reductase was homogeneous on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. It had an Mr of 79,000 and consisted of two subunits with a Mr of 40,000. The activity was maximum at pH 8.2 and 52 degrees C. It was specific for NADPH but not for NADH as the electron donor; the reverse reaction was not observed. The Km values for NADPH and GSSG were 14 and 55 microM respectively. The en...
متن کاملThioredoxin and NADPH-Dependent Thioredoxin Reductase C Regulation of Tetrapyrrole Biosynthesis1[OPEN]
In chloroplasts, thioredoxin (TRX) isoforms and NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductase C (NTRC) act as redox regulatory factors involved in multiple plastid biogenesis and metabolic processes. To date, less is known about the functional coordination between TRXs and NTRC in chlorophyll biosynthesis. In this study, we aimed to explore the potential functions of TRX m and NTRC in the regulation of...
