The Operation of Two Decarboxylases, Transamination, and Partitioning of C4 Metabolic Processes between Mesophyll and Bundle Sheath Cells Allows Light Capture To Be Balanced for the Maize C4 Pathway

Abstract: The C 4 photosynthesis carbon-concentrating mechanism in maize (Zea mays) has two CO 2 delivery pathways to the bundle sheath (BS; via malate or aspartate), and rates of phosphoglyceric acid reduction, starch synthesis, and phosphoenolpyruvate regeneration also vary between BS and mesophyll (M) cells. The theoretical partitioning of ATP supply between M and BS cells was derived for these metabolic activities from simulated profiles of light penetration across a leaf, with a potential 3-fold difference in the f… Show more

“…1983). The acquisition of pck‐1P1_LGT‐C , a gene already adapted for the C 4 context, probably added a PCK shuttle, which alters the stoichiometry of the pathway and the spatial distribution of its energy requirements, increasing its efficiency under some conditions (Bellasio and Griffiths 2014; Wang et al. 2014).…”

“…PEPCK was assumed to regenerate 20% of the PEP required by PEPC, which is close to the expected value under natural white light (Bellasio and Griffiths, 2014); the remainder was regenerated through PPDK. PEPC rate ( V P ), V C , and V O were calculated with the validated von Caemmerer C 4 model (Table 1), in the light-limited form (von Caemmerer, 2000; Bellasio and Griffiths, 2013).…”

“…We used the validated C 4 model (von Caemmerer, 2000), as recently integrated to describe the C 4 energetics (Bellasio and Griffiths, 2014). The biochemical processes considered are: 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) reduction, starch synthesis, PEP regeneration, ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) regeneration, and glycolate recycling, while the PGA consumed by mitochondrial respiration is subtracted as likely to be consumed by basal metabolism (for derivation see Bellasio and Griffiths, 2014). ATP/ GA B was calculated as: ATPGAB=3VC+72VO+A6+PEPCK+2PPDK13RLIGHT …”

“…Before optimal pool sizes are established for a given light intensity, suboptimal CO 2 concentrations near Rubisco would increase rates of oxygenation, leading to increased photorespiration and, thus, incurring the double costs of C 4 carbon pumping and C 3 photorespiration (Fig. 3C;de Veau and Burris, 1989;von Caemmerer and Furbank, 2003;Sage and McKown, 2006;Bellasio and Griffiths, 2014b). The transport mechanisms returning C 3 acids into the mesophyll following decarboxylation in the bundle sheath cell are less clear.…”
