Redox signalling in the chloroplast: structure of oxidized pea fructose-1,6-bisphosphate phosphatase

Abstract: Sunlight provides the energy source for the assimilation of carbon dioxide by photosynthesis, but it also provides regulatory signals that switch on specific sets of enzymes involved in the alternation of light and dark metabolisms in chloroplasts. Capture of photons by chlorophyll pigments triggers redox cascades that ultimately activate target enzymes via the reduction of regulatory disulfide bridges by thioredoxins. Here we report the structure of the oxidized, low-activity form of chloroplastic fructose-1,… Show more

“…Consistent with the present results, when the C-terminal extension is removed genetically, the resultant recombinant mutant enzyme is significantly less redox-sensitive (5,18). The regulatory disulfide bonds in the redox-regulated chloroplast malate dehydrogenase (20,21) and in the chloroplast fructose bisphosphatase (22) are also located in extensions or insertions. Modeling suggests that the two Cys residues in the C-terminal extension of the chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase are located in different domains.…”

“…FBPase from the chloroplast evidently does not bind AMP (30,31). Yet existing crystal structures of reduced and oxidized chloroplast FBPase have nearly the same quaternary arrangement of subunits, resembling most closely the T-state of mammalian FBPase.…”

“…Interestingly, position 18 of the chloroplast enzyme, which corresponds to position 10 of mammalian FBPase, is isoleucine, this residue being widely conserved among FBPases. Furthermore, in the inactive, oxidized form of chloroplast FBPase, loop 61-81 (corresponding to loop 52-72 of the mammalian enzyme) is in the disengaged conformation (30), whereas the equivalent loop in the active, reduced form of chloroplast FBPase is in the disordered conformation (32). Evidently, oxidation and reduction of the disulfide bond in chloroplast FBPase influences the relative stability of the disengaged loop-conformation in a manner similar to that of AMP in mammalian FBPases.…”

“…It is known that both enzymes are redoxregulated but the relationship between them is still unclear at the molecular level. Although we know precisely the structure and regulatory properties of pea FBPase, little is known about the structure-function relationship of SBPase (Jacquot et al 1995;Chiadmi et al 1999). In a first series of experiments, we have produced the corresponding recombinant proteins from poplar and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii but the enzymes turned out not to be sufficiently stable and rather rapidly denatured.…”
