Two newly identified membrane-associated and plastidic tomato HXKs: characteristics, predicted structure and intracellular localization

Abstract: Two new tomato hexokinase genes, LeHXK3 and LeHXK4, were cloned and characterized, placing tomato as the first plant with four characterized HXK genes. Based on their sequence, LeHXK3 is the third membrane-associated (type-B) and LeHXK4 is the first plastidic (type-A) HXK identified in tomato. Expression of HXK-GFP fusion proteins in protoplasts indicated that the LeHxk3 enzyme is associated with the mitochondria while LeHxk4 is localized in plastids. Furthermore, LeHxk4::GFP fusion protein is found within str… Show more

“…2). As noted with other plastid HXKs (Cho et al 2006a;Kandel-Kfir et al 2006), the presence of the transit peptide in AtHXK3 might have led to this protein not being identified in a previous complementation study of yeast cells deficient in glucose phosphorylation activity, using Arabidopsis cDNAs (Jang et al 1997). The organ distribution of AtHXK3 is similar to that observed for tobacco plastid NtHXK2 from promoter-GUS studies (Giese et al 2005).…”

“…Whether T6P is involved in hexokinase signaling is currently unclear. Whereas yeast hexokinase is inhibited by T6P, no such effect has been found for plants (Wiese et al, 1999;Eastmond et al, 2002;Kandel-Kfir et al, 2006), and the impact of T6P on gene expression in seedlings was considered to be largely independent of hexokinase signaling (Zhang et al, 2009). Nevertheless, effects of hexokinase-1 on TPS1 expression in Arabidopsis seedlings were demonstrated by Avonce et al (2004), suggesting that there may be signaling interactions.…”

“…Proteomic and GFP fusion analyses indicate that several plant HXKs are located on the outer mitochondrial membrane, where a completely functional glycolytic metabolon can be found (Giege et al, 2003;Kim et al, 2006;Balasubramanian et al, 2007;Damari-Weissler et al, 2007;Granot, 2007;Karve et al, 2008). In addition, plant HXKs are found in plastids (Wiese et al, 1999;Olsson et al, 2003;Giese et al, 2005;Cho et al, 2006a;Kandel-Kfir et al, 2006;Granot, 2007). Unique in moss, the chloroplast stromal HXK accounts for 80% of the total hexose kinase activity and is responsible for glucose-mediated growth and formation of caulonemal filaments (Olsson et al, 2003).…”
