Pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase from the immature grains of cereal grasses.
Pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase has been identified in the green grains of eight cereal grasses, most of which are classified as C(3) plants. The wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Lerma Rojo) grain enzyme was further investigated: activity was low in very young grains, increased to a maximum at about 25 days after anthesis, then returned to a low level as the grain matured. It appeared to be loc...
متن کاملFunctional evolution of C(4) pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase.
Pyruvate,orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) plays a controlling role in the PEP-regeneration phase of the C(4) photosynthetic pathway. Earlier studies have fully documented its biochemical properties and its post-translational regulation by the PPDK regulatory protein (PDRP). However, the question of its evolution into the C(4) pathway has, until recently, received little attention. One assumption ...
متن کاملPyruvate orthophosphate dikinase gene expression in developing wheat seeds.
The amount of pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) (EC 2.7.9.1) protein in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. var Cheyenne) grains was determined at different stages of development by the protein blot method. The variation in PPDK protein with time in developing wheat grains was similar to that of the enzyme's activity reported by Meyer et al. (1982 Plant Physiol 69: 7-10). The variation in levels ...
متن کاملPyruvate orthophosphate dikinase of c(3) seeds and leaves as compared to the enzyme from maize.
Pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) was found in various immature seeds of C(3) plants (wheat, pea, green bean, plum, and castor bean), in some C(3) leaves (tobacco, spinach, sunflower, and wheat), and in C(4) (maize) kernels. The enzyme in the C(3) plants cross-reacts with rabbit antiserum against maize PPDK. Based on protein blot analysis, the apparent subunit size of PPDK from wheat seed...
متن کاملSignificant accumulation of C(4)-specific pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase in a C(3) plant, rice.
The C(4)-Pdk gene encoding the C(4) enzyme pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) of maize (Zea mays cv Golden Cross Bantam) was introduced into the C(3) plant, rice (Oryza sativa cv Kitaake). When the intact maize C(4)-Pdk gene, containing its own promoter and terminator sequences and exon/intron structure, was introduced, the PPDK activity in the leaves of some transgenic lines was greatly ...
