Limited proteolysis of maize NADP-malic enzyme.
The incubation of maize malic enzyme at 37 degrees C with trypsin at a ratio of 150:1 of malic enzyme to trypsin caused rapid and complete inactivation of enzyme activity. The inactivation was caused by fairly specific cleavage of the enzyme monomer (62 kDa) into 40 kDa and 20 kDa fragments. The intensity of 40 kDa band increased with the time of treatment of enzyme with trypsin from 2 to 30 mi...
متن کاملPrimary structure of the maize NADP-dependent malic enzyme.
Chloroplast-localized NADP-dependent malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) (NADP-ME) provides a key activity for the carbon 4 fixation pathway. In maize, nuclear encoded NADP-ME is synthesized in the cytoplasm as a precursor with a transit peptide that is removed upon transport into the chloroplast stroma. We present here the complete nucleotide sequence for a 2184-base pair full-length maize NADP-ME cDNA...
متن کاملAlteration of organic acid metabolism in Arabidopsis overexpressing the maize C4 NADP-malic enzyme causes accelerated senescence during extended darkness.
The full-length cDNA encoding the maize (Zea mays) C(4) NADP-malic enzyme was expressed in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. Homozygous transgenic plants (MEm) were isolated with activities ranging from 6- to 33-fold of those found in the wild type. The transformants did not show any differences in morphology and development when ...
متن کاملNADP-linked malic enzyme. Purification from maize leaves, Mr and subunit composition.
1. The isolation of NADP-linked malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) from maize leaves is described, together with studies of its Mr and subunit composition. 2. The enzyme was purified to apparent homogeneity by affinity chromatography on N6-aminohexyl-2',5'-bisphosphoadenosine-agarose, gel filtration with Sephadex G-100 and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50. A purification of 140-fold wi...
متن کاملBasic residues play key roles in catalysis and NADP(+)-specificity in maize (Zea mays L.) photosynthetic NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme.
C(4)-specific (photosynthetic) NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme (NADP(+)-ME) has evolved from C(3)-malic enzymes and represents a unique and specialized form, as indicated by its particular kinetic and regulatory properties. In the present paper, we have characterized maize (Zea mays L.) photosynthetic NADP(+)-ME mutants in which conserved basic residues (lysine and arginine) were changed by site...
