This article discusses the importance and implications of regulating carbon partitioning to cellulose synthesis, the characteristics of cells that serve as major sinks for cellulose deposition, and enzymes that participate in the conversion of supplied carbon to cellulose. Cotton fibers, which deposit almost pure cellulose into their secondary cell walls, are referred to as a primary model system. For sucrose synthase, we discuss its proposed role in channeling UDP-Glc to cellulose synthase during secondary wall deposition, its gene family, its manipulation in transgenic plants, and mechanisms that may regulate its association with sites of polysaccharide synthesis. For cellulose synthase, we discuss the organization of the gene family and how protein diversity could relate to control of carbon partitioning to cellulose synthesis. Other enzymes emphasized include UDP-Glc pyrophosphorylase and sucrose phosphate synthase. New data are included on phosphorylation of cotton fiber sucrose synthase, possible regulation by Ca2+ of sucrose synthase localization, electron microscopic immunolocalization of sucrose synthase in cotton fibers, and phylogenetic relationships between cellulose synthase proteins, including three new ones identified in differentiating tracheary elements of Zinnia elegans. We develop a model for metabolism related to cellulose synthesis that implicates the changing intracellular localization of sucrose synthase as a molecular switch between survival metabolism and growth and/or differentiation processes involving cellulose synthesis.

Planting density plays an important role in improving cotton yield and regulating fiber quality. A 2-year experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of plant density on sucrose metabolism in relation to fiber quality of field-grown cotton. The results showed that lint yield increased with increasing plant density, fiber micronaire, fiber maturity ratio, and fiber fineness decreased with the increasing of plant density, whereas fiber length, fiber uniformity index, fiber strength, and fiber elongation were little affected by plant density. Increased plant density decreased sucrose synthase (SuSy) activity, sucrose content, and cellulose content in cotton fiber, but increased invertase activity. Increased invertase activity would restrain SuSy activity in cotton fiber: therefore, SuSy activity was the most severely affected enzyme in fiber sucrose metabolism by cotton plant density during fiber development. Abundant sucrose content in fiber after 24 days post anthesis (DPA) and high activities of SuSy and sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) at 38 DPA were beneficial for cellulose synthesis, and were propitious to optimize the fiber maturity properties. The results also showed that fiber micronaire, maturity ratio, and fineness decreased 0.11, 0.02, and 5.89 mtex, respectively, with each increase of 10,000 plants per hectare. It was concluded that high plant density decreased SuSy activity, sucrose content, and cellulose content, but increased invertase activity in sucrose metabolism, resulting in low fiber micronaire, fiber maturity ratio, and fiber fineness. 相似文献

Carbohydrate metabolism was investigated during spruce somatic embryogenesis. During the period of maintenance corresponding to the active phase of embryogenic tissue growth, activities of soluble acid invertase and alkaline invertase increased together with cellular glucose and fructose levels. During the same time, sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) activity increased while sucrose synthase (SuSy) activity stayed constant together with the cellular sucrose level. Therefore, during maintenance, invertases were thought to generate the hexoses necessary for embryogenic tissue growth while SuSy and SPS would allow cellular sucrose to be kept at a constant level. During maturation on sucrose-containing medium, SuSy and SPS activities stayed constant whereas invertase activities were high during the early stage of maturation before declining markedly from the second to the fifth week. This decrease of invertase activities resulted in a decreased hexose:sucrose ratio accompanied by starch and protein deposition. Additionally, carbohydrate metabolism was strongly modified when sucrose in the maturation medium was replaced by equimolar concentrations of glucose and fructose. Essentially, during the first 2 weeks, invertase activities were low in tissues growing on hexose-containing medium while cellular glucose and fructose levels increased. During the same period, SuSy activity increased while the SPS activity stayed constant together with the cellular sucrose level. This metabolism reorganization on hexose-containing medium affected cellular protein and starch levels resulting in a decrease of embryo number and quality. These results provide new knowledge on carbohydrate metabolism during spruce somatic embryogenesis and suggest a regulatory role of exogenous sucrose in embryo development. 相似文献

The effect of low temperature on growth, sucrose–starch partitioning and related enzymes in salt-stressed and salt-acclimated cotyledons of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) was studied. The growth of cotyledons and growing axes in seedlings grown at 25/20 °C (light/dark) and shifted to 5/5 °C was lower than in those only growing at 25/20 °C (unstressed). However, there were no significant differences between low-temperature control and salt-treated seedlings. The higher activities of sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS, EC 2.4.1.14) and soluble acid invertase (acid INV, EC 3.2.1.25) were observed in salt-stressed cotyledons; however, the highest acid INV activity was observed in unstressed cotyledons. ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (ADP-GPPase, EC 2.7.7.27) was higher in unstressed cotyledons than in stressed ones. However, between 0 and 4 days the highest value was observed in salt-stressed cotyledons. The lowest value of ADP-GPPase was observed in salt-acclimated cotyledons. Low temperature also affected sucrose synthase (SuSy, EC 2.4.1.13) activity in salt-treated cotyledons. Sucrose and glucose were higher in salt-stressed cotyledons, but fructose was essentially higher in low-temperature control. Starch was higher in low-temperature control; however, the highest content was observed at 0 day in salt-acclimated cotyledons. Results demonstrated that low temperature induces different responses on sucrose–starch partitioning in salt-stressed and salt-acclimated cotyledons. Data also suggest that in salt-treated cotyledons source–sink relations (SSR) are changed in order to supply soluble sugars and proline for the osmotic adjustment. Relationships between starch formation and SuSy activity are also discussed. 相似文献

Sucrose metabolism was studied at three leaf development stages in two Phaseolus vulgaris L. cultivars, Tacarigua and Montalban. The changes of enzyme activities involved in sucrose metabolism at the leaf development stages were: (1) Sink (9-11 % full leaf expansion, FLE): low total sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) activity, and higher acid invertase (AI) activity accompanied by low sucrose synthase (SuSy) synthetic and sucrolytic activities. (2) Sink to source transition (40-47 % FLE): increase in total SPS and SuSy activities, decrease in AI activity. (3) Source (96-97 % FLE): high total SPS activity, increased SuSy activities, decreased AI activity. The hexose/sucrose ratio decreased from sink to source leaves in both bean cultivars. The neutral invertase activity was lower than that of AI; it showed an insignificant decrease during the sink-source transition. 相似文献

ABSTRACTSucrose (Sue) plays a central role in plant growth and development. It is a major end product of photosynthesis and functions as a primary transport sugar and in some cases as a direct or indirect regulator of gene expression. Research during the last 2 decades has identified the pathways involved and which enzymes contribute to the control of flux. Availability of metabolites for Sue synthesis and 'demand' for products of sucrose degradation are important factors, but this review specifically focuses on the biosynthetic enzyme sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS), and the degradative enzymes, sucrose synthase (SuSy), and the invertases. Recent progress has included the cloning of genes encoding these enzymes and the elucidation of posttranslational regulatory mechanisms. Protein phosphorylation is emerging as an important mechanism controlling SPS activity in response to various environmental and endogenous signals. In terms of Sue degradation, invertase-catalyzed hydrolysis generally has been associated with cell expansion, whereas SuSy-catalyzed metabolism has been linked with biosynthetic processes (e.g., cell wall or storage products). Recent results indicate that SuSy may be localized in multiple cellular compartments: (1) as a soluble enzyme in the cytosol (as traditionally assumed); (2) associated with the plasma membrane; and (3) associated with the actin cytoskeleton. Phosphorylation of SuSy has been shown to occur and may be one of the factors controlling localization of the enzyme. The purpose of this review is to summarize some of the recent developments relating to regulation of activity and localization of key enzymes involved in sucrose metabolism in plants. 相似文献

Sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) stems of different cultivars (NK 405. Keller and Tracy) reveal a different pattern of sucrose accumulation with respect to in-ternodal sugar content and distribution. The onset of sucrose storage is not necessarily associated with the reproductive stage of the plant, as was hitherto assumed, but obviously occurs after cessation of internodai elongation as was postulated for the sugarcane stem. For at least two of the three cultivars, ripening is an internode to internode process beginning at the lowermost culm parts. Intensive growth of the internodes, combined with a high hexose content in stern parenchyma, shows a strong positive correlation (r |Mg 0.94) to the activity of sucrose synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.13), but not to invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) which is not present as soluble (neutral and acid) or cell wall-bound, salt-extractable enzyme in the three culsivars investigated. Sucrose synthase measured in sucrose cleavage and synthesis direction reveals divergent activity rates and sensitivity towards exogenously applied Mg2+ ions and pH. SuSy activity is connected to the increase of internodai sucrose content in so far as (1) its decline is a prerequisite for the onset of sucrose accumulation and (2) it remains at a constant low level during sucrose storage. Sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS; EC 2.4.1.14) activity in the sorghum stem is low compared to SuSy and uniformly distributed over all inter-nodes. Only source leaves of sorghum show a considerable SPS activity, but neither stem nor leaf SPS reveal a positive correlation to the increase of internodai sucrose content. Sucrose phosphate phosphatase (SPP; EC 3.1.3.24) amounts lo only 24–30% of the respective SPS activity but follows the same distribution pattern. None of the enzymes under study proves to be responsible for the extent of sucrose storage in the stem, so other phenomena such as transport processes within the stern tissue require further investigation. 相似文献

The presence of sucrose synthesizing and degrading enzymes and the correlation of their enzyme activity with cambial growth
and heartwood formation are demonstrated in trunks of Robinia pseudoacacia L., black locust. Sucrose is formed by sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS; EC 2.4.1.14), predominantly in the storage part of
the sapwood. In the cambial differentiation zone and the sapwood-heartwood transition zone, both of which constitute carbohydrate
sinks, sucrose is primarily cleaved by sucrose synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.1.13) and a neutral invertase (NI; EC 3.2.1.26). In
spring, enhanced activities of SuSy and NI were found in the differentiating xylem tissues. This coincided with elevated SPS
rates at the sites of starch mobilization. Heartwood formation in autumn, a period of intense accumulation of phenolics in
the innermost living wood tissues, was accompanied by high activities of SuSy and NI. Increased SPS and NI activities in all
tissues of winter samples could be correlated with cold acclimation. Probing of SPS and SuSy protein from black locust with
heterologous antibodies revealed a subunit size of 130 kDa for SPS and of 89 kDa for SuSy. Both SPS and SuSy exhibited a linear
correlation between catalytic activity and amount of enzyme protein with respect to the radial profile from bark to inner
core and with respect to the seasonal course. The highest amounts of SuSy-specific mRNA were detected in differentiating xylem
in summer and the sapwood-heartwood transition zone in autumn. These data are taken as evidence for a pivotal role of SuSy
in supplying carbon skeletons for the biosynthesis of secondary substances in woody axes.

Sucrose-phosphate synthase activity and yield analysis of tomato plants transformed with maize sucrose-phosphate synthase 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Sucrose synthesis is a major element of the interactions between photosynthesis and plant growth and development. Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. UC82B) plants transformed with maize sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS; EC 2.3.1.14) expressed from either a ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate
carboxylase-oxygenase (Rubisco) small subunit promoter (SSU) or the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (35S) were used
to study effects of increased sucrose synthesis rates on plant growth. The plants were grown in growth chambers, field plots,
and open-top chambers. The 35S plants had a 2 to 3-fold increase in young-leaf SPS activity, a 10 to 20-fold increase in young-root
SPS activity and no increase in young-fruit SPS activity. The leaf SPS activity in one of the 35S lines fell to control levels
by two months of age. The SSU plants had a 4 to 5-fold increase in leaf SPS activity and no significant increase in root or
young-fruit SPS activity. One 35S line, which maintained high leaf SPS activity throughout development, yielded 70–80% more
than controls at both normal and elevated CO2 in open-top chambers in the field and 20–30% more than controls in two additional field trials. The other 35S line and the
two SSU lines either yielded less or did not differ from controls under several growth conditions. Since only one of four
transformed lines showed an increase in yield, we can not yet conclude that increased leaf SPS activity leads to increased
yield. However, increased leaf SPS activity appears to result in increased fruit sugar content since all three lines with
increased leaf SPS usually also had increased fruit sugars.

Sucrose synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.1.13) plays a prominent role in O(2) deficiency and functions at a branch point, partitioning sucrose between cell wall biosynthesis and glycolysis. The cleavage of sucrose by SuSy was localized in wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. cv. Alcedo) roots subjected to 4 days of hypoxia. Increased SuSy activity was observed by in situ activity staining in the tip region and in the stele of root axes. The pattern of cellulose deposition correlated with regions of high SuSy activity. Cellulose accounted for more than 30% of root dry weight and the cellulose content increased substantially under hypoxia. The strongest accumulation of cellulose occurred in the base and mid-regions of the roots where the content rose to 163% and 182% of controls, respectively. In the root axis, cellulose deposition occurred in the endodermis and walls of pith cells. In root tips, cellulose was primarily deposited in developing xylem and phloem. The marker enzyme for O(2) shortage, pyruvate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.17), exhibited a 14-fold increase in the root apex, whereas in basal root tissues, which contained more aerenchyma, pyruvate decarboxylase activity was only doubled. The root apex also contained the highest concentration of sucrose and hexoses. The elevated sugar content in all root zones was partially used to synthesize cellulose for secondary wall thickening. 相似文献

The effect of hypoxia on root development and carbon metabolism was studied using potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants as a model system. Hypoxia led to a cessation of root elongation, and finally to the death of meristematic cells.
These changes were accompanied by a 4- to 5-fold accumulation of hexoses, suggesting that insufficient carbohydrate supply
was not the cause of cell death. In addition, prolonged hypoxia (96 h) resulted in a 50% increase in activity of most glycolytic
enzymes studied and the accumulation of glycerate-3-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate. This indicates that endproduct utilisation
may restrict metabolic flux through glycolysis. As expected, the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) and pyruvate
decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.17) increased during hypoxia. Apart from the enzymes of ethanolic fermentation the activity of sucrose
synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.1.13) was enhanced. To investigate the in-vivo significance of this increase, transgenic plants with
reduced SuSy activity were analysed. Compared to untransformed controls, transgenic plants showed a reduced ability to resume
growth after re-aeration, emphasising the crucial role of SuSy in the toleration of hypoxia. Surprisingly, analysis of glycolytic
intermediates in root extracts from SuSy antisense plants revealed no change as compared to wildtype plants. Therefore, limitation
of glycolysis is most likely not responsible for the observed decreased ability for recovery after prolonged oxygen starvation.
We assume that the function of SuSy during hypoxia might be to channel excess carbohydrates into cell wall polymers for later
consumption rather than fuelling glycolysis.

Sucrose synthase isoforms in cultured tobacco cells. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The plant enzyme sucrose synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.1.13) catalyzes the reversible conversion of sucrose and UDP into UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) and fructose. The enzyme exists in different isoforms and is both located in the cytosol, membrane-bound and associated to the actin cytoskeleton. We here investigate sucrose synthase from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) BY-2 heterotrophic cell suspensions. Two different isoforms of sucrose synthase SuSy1 and SuSy2, could be purified from cytosolic extracts of these cells using a combination of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) precipitation, gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography and affinity chromatography. They were clearly distinct, both with regard to the binding to the ion-exchange column and with regard to their kinetic and regulatory properties. SuSy1, the more abundant species, showed lower V(max) and K(m) for sucrose and UDP compared to the less abundant SuSy2. The activity of SuSy2 in the breakdown direction was stimulated by 60% by actin, in contrast to that of SuSy1, which showed a 17% inhibition. An indication of interaction between SuSy1 and actin was obtained by partitioning in aqueous Dextran-PEG two-phase systems. Furthermore, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F26BP) at micromolar concentrations stimulated SuSy2 in the presence of actin while SuSy1 was strongly inhibited by fructose. Possible roles of these two isoforms in the sucrose turnover in BY-2 cells are discussed. 相似文献

We compared gene expression levels for enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in the twig xylem of two Populus species with the seasonal levels of starch and soluble sugars (sucrose, glucose, and fructose) and relative levels of the enzymes. Plants of Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh and P. balsamifera L., 3–4 years old, were grown outside in Lubbock, TX, USA in 43 L pots. The xylem in the middle portion of the twigs was sampled during the dormant period (November–February), at bud break (for P. balsamifera), and during the growth flush (April–July). The gene expression for ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), sucrose synthase (SuSy), and sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS) generally coincided with the levels of the carbohydrates in whose metabolism these enzymes are involved. Gene expression for AGPase and its protein levels were high when the xylem starch content was high (growing period). However, P. balsamifera maintained high AGPase levels in dormant and growing twigs, unlike P. deltoides whose dormant twigs had low AGPase and low gene expression. Compared to growing twigs, gene expression for SuSy and SPS and their protein levels were higher in dormant twigs when soluble sugar content was higher. No down-regulation of these genes appears to occur when pools of the associated carbohydrates are high. Contrary to our expectation, the gene expression for β-amylase was highest in growing twigs when starch content was high. High β-amylase gene expression in growing twigs may be involved in maintaining a sufficient level of soluble sugars for growth through possibly controlling the extent of starch accumulation. 相似文献
