Simultaneous kinetic analysis of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activities.
An assay was developed for simultaneous kinetic analysis of the activities of the bifunctional plant enzyme ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase [EC 4.1.1.39]. [1-(14)C,5-(3)H]Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) was used as the labeled substrate. Tritium enrichment of the doubly labeled 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) product, common to both enzyme activities, may be used to calculate V(c)/V...
متن کاملCrystal structure of activated ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase complexed with its substrate, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate.
The three-dimensional structure of the complex of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase from Rhodospirillum rubrum, CO2, Mg2+, and ribulose bisphosphate has been determined with x-ray crystallographic methods to 2.6-A resolution. Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate binds across the active site with the two phosphate groups in the two phosphate binding sites of the beta/alpha barrel. The oxygen atoms of t...
متن کاملVariations in Kinetic Properties of Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate Carboxylases among Plants.
Studies of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase from taxonomically diverse plants show that the enzyme from C(3) and crassulacean acid metabolism pathway species exhibits lower K(m)(CO(2)) values (12-25 micromolar) than does that from C(4) species (28-34 micromolar). RuBP carboxylase from aquatic angiosperms, an aquatic bryophyte, fresh water and marine algae has yielded consistently hi...
متن کاملEffect of Triacontanol on Chlamydomonas: II. Specific Activity of Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase/Oxygenase, Ribulose-Bisphosphate Concentration, and Characteristics of Photorespiration.
Increased photosynthetic CO(2) assimilation by Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells treated with triacontanol (TRIA) was not due to changes in glycolate excretion, CO(2) compensation point, or the sensitivity of photosynthetic CO(2) assimilation to O(2). Kinetic analysis of TRIA-treated cells showed that the increase in photosynthetic CO(2) assimilation was a result of an increase in the apparent V(...
متن کاملAlteration of spinach ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activase activities by site-directed mutagenesis.
Site-directed mutagenesis was performed on the 1.6 and 1.9 kilobase spinach (Spinacea oleracea) ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) activase cDNAs, encoding the 41 and 45 kilodalton (kD) isoforms of the enzyme, to create single amino acid changes in the putative ATP-binding site of Rubisco activase (Lys-107, Gln-109, and Ser-112) and in an unrelated cysteine residue (Cys-2...
