ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.27) from the cyanobacteriumSynechocystis PCC 6803 was desensitized to the effects of allosteric ligands by treatment with the arginine reagent, phenylglyoxal. Enzyme modification by phenylglyoxal resulted in inactivation when the enzyme was assayed under 3P-glycerate-activated conditions. There was little loss of the catalytic activity assayed in the absence of activator. Pi, 3P-glycerate, and pyridoxal-P were able to protect the enzyme from inactivation, whereas substrates gave minimal protection. The protective effect exhibited by Pi and 3P-glycerate was dependent on effector concentration. MgCl2 enhanced the protection afforded by 3P-glycerate. The enzyme partially modified by phenylglyoxal was more resistant to 3P-glycerate activation and Pi inhibition than the unmodified form.V
max at saturating 3P-glycerate concentrations and the apparent affinity of the enzyme toward Pi were decreased upon phenylglyoxal modification. Incorporation of labeled phenylglyoxal into the enzyme was proportional to the loss of activity. Pi and 3P-glycerate nearly completely prevented incorporation of the reagent to the protein. Results suggest that one arginine residue per mol of enzyme subunit is involved in the binding of allosteric effector in the cyanobacterial ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase. 相似文献

The enzyme adenosine kinase (AK; EC 2.7.1.20) shows a dependence upon inorganic phosphate (Pi) for activity. The degree of dependence varies among enzyme sources and the pH at which the activity is measured. At physiological pH, recombinant AK from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and AK from beef liver (BL) show higher affinities for the substrate adenosine (Ado), larger maximum velocities and lower sensitivities to substrate inhibition in the presence of Pi. At pH 6.2, both BL and CHO AK exhibit almost complete dependence on the presence of Pi for activity. The data show that both enzymes exhibit increasing relief from substrate inhibition upon increasing Pi and the inhibition of BL AK is almost completely alleviated by the addition of 50 mM Pi. The affinity of CHO AK for Ado increases asymptotically from K(m) 6.4 microM to a limit of 0.7 microM upon the addition of increasing Pi from 1 to 50 mM. The concentration of Ado necessary to invoke substrate inhibition also increases asymptotically from K(i) 32 microM to a limit of 69 microM at saturating concentrations of phosphate. In the presence of increasing amounts of Pi, the maximal velocity of activity increases hyperbolically. The effect that phosphate exerts on AK may be either to protect the enzyme from inactivation at high adenosine and H(+) concentrations or to stabilize substrate binding at the active site. 相似文献

1. The effect of NH4+, Pi and K+ on phosphofructokinase from muscle and nervous tissues of a large number of animals was investigated. The activation of the enzyme from lobster abdominal muscle by NH4+ was increased synergistically by the presence of Pi or SO4(2-). In the absence of K+, NH4+ plus Pi markedly activated phosphofructokinase from all tissues studied. In the presence of 100 mM-K+, NH4+ plus Pi activated phosphofructokinase from nervous tissue and muscle of invertebrates and the enzyme from brain of vertebrates, but there was no effect of NH4+ plus Pi on the enzyme from the muscles of vertebrates. Nonetheless, NH4+ plus Pi increased the activity of vertebrate muscle phosphofructokinase in the presence of 50 mM-K+ at inhibitory concentrations of ATP, i.e. these ions de-inhibited the enzyme. In the absence of NH4+ plus Pi, K+ activated phosphofructokinase from vertebrate tissues at non-inhibitory ATP concentrations, but the effect was less marked with the enzyme from invertebrate tissues. Indeed, high concentrations of K+ (greater than 50 mM) caused inhibition of invertebrate tissue phosphofructokinase. Of the other alkali-metal ions tested, only Rb+ activated phosphofructokinase from lobster abdominal muscle and rat heart muscle. 2. The properties of lobster abdominal-muscle phosphofructokinase were studied in detail. This muscle was chosen as representative of invertebrate muscle because large quantities of tissue could be obtained from one animal and the enzyme was considerably more stable in tissue extracts than in extracts of insect flight muscle. In general, the properties of the enzyme from this tissue were similar to those of the enzyme from many other tissues: ATP concentrations above an optimum value inhibited the enzyme and this inhibition was decreased by raising the fructose 6-phosphate or the AMP concentration. In particular, NH4+ plus Pi activated the enzyme at noninhibitory concentrations of ATP and they also relieved ATP inhibition (see above). 3. It is suggested that increases in the concentration of NH4+ and Pi, under conditions of increased ATP utilization in certain muscles and/or nervous tissue, may play a part in the stimulation of glycolysis through the effects on phosphofructokinase (the effect may be a direct activation and/or a relief of ATP inhibition). Changes in the concentration of NH4+ and Pi are consistent with this theory in nervous tissue and the anaerobic type of muscles. The role of AMP deaminase in production of NH4+ from AMP in these tissues is discussed in relation to the control of glycolysis. 相似文献

Inhibition of Na++K+-dependent ATPase activity by Pi was maximal in the pH range of 6.1-7, but decreased with increasing pH in the range of 7-8.5. Ki of Pi was 2.8 mM at pH 7.1, and 12 mM at pH 7.8. K+-dependent phosphorylation of the enzyme by Pi, which is thought to be responsible for inhibition of ATPase activity, also decreased with increasing pH. The data suggest that (a) previously observed requirement of high Pi concentrations for inhibition of ATPase activity and associated pump fluxes may have been due to high pH of the assays; (b) at normal values of intracellular pH the pump may be partially inhibited by intracellular Pi; and (c) this effect of Pi may be amplified or dampened with alterations in intracellular pH and ATP/Pi ratio. 相似文献

AbstractThe Streptococcus pneumoniae 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase is a potential novel antibacterial target. The enzyme catalyzes a reversible transfer of an enolpqruvyl group from phospho(enol)pqruvate (PEP) to shikimate 3-phosphate (S3P) to give EPSP with the release of inorganic phosphate (Pi). Understanding the kinetic mechanism of this enzyme is crucial to the design of novel inhibitors of this enzyme that may hate potential as antibacterial agents. Steady-state kinetic studies of product inhibition and inhibition by glyphosate (GLP) have demonstrated diverse inhibition patterns of the enzyme. In the forward reaction. GLP is a competitive inhibitor with respect to PEP, but an uncompetitive inhibitor relative to S3P. Product inhibition shows that EPSP is a competitive inhibitor versus both PEP and S3P. suggesting that the forward reaction follows a random sequential mechanism. In the reverse reaction. GLP is an uncompetitive inhibitor versus EPSP, but a noncompetitive inhibitor versus Pi. This indicates that a non-productive quaternary complex might he formed between the enzyme. EPSP, GLP and Pi. Product inhibition in the reverse reaction has also been investigated. The inhibition patterns of the S. pneumoniae EPSP synthase are not entirely consistent with those of EPSP synthases from other species, indicating that EPSP synthases from different organisms may adopt unique mechanisms to catalyze the same reactions. 相似文献

In acid soils, aluminium (Al) toxicity and phosphate (Pi) deficiency are the most significant constraints on plant growth. Al inhibits cell growth and disrupts signal transduction processes, thus interfering with metabolism of phospholipase C (PLC), an enzyme involved in second messenger production in the cell. Using a Coffea arabica suspension cell model, we demonstrate that cell growth inhibition by Al toxicity is mitigated at a high Pi concentration. Aluminium-induced cell growth inhibition may be due to culture medium Pi deficiency, since Pi forms complexes with Al, reducing Pi availability to cells. Phosphate does not mitigate inhibition of PLC activity by Al toxicity. Other enzymes of the phosphoinositide signal transduction pathway were also evaluated. Aluminium disrupts production of second messengers such as inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and phosphatidic acid (PA) by blocking PLC activity; however, phospholipase D (PLD) and diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) activities are stimulated by Al, a response probably aimed at counteracting Al effects on PA formation. Phosphate deprivation also induces PLC and DGK activity. These results suggest that Al-induced cell growth inhibition is not linked to PLC activity inhibition. 相似文献

Effect of urea on the partial reactions and crystallization pattern of sarcoplasmic reticulum adenosine triphosphatase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Steady-state ATPase activity, calcium binding, formation of phosphorylated enzyme intermediate with ATP in the presence of Ca2+, or with Pi in the absence of Ca2+, and association of ATPase molecules into bidimensional crystals, were studied using vesicular fragments of sarcoplasmic reticulum. The vesicles were exposed to increasing concentrations of urea in order to produce stepwise perturbations of protein structure and to test the effect of such perturbations on the partial reactions and crystallization pattern of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase. It was found that low concentrations of urea produce specific inhibition of Pi binding and enzyme phosphorylation with Pi (but not with ATP). Intermediate concentrations of urea reduce calcium binding affinity and cooperativity, while the ability of the enzyme to be phosphorylated with ATP and to form dimeric arrays is retained. These observations demonstrate that the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase is sensitive to physical perturbations producing specific and reversible changes in the Pi and calcium binding domains. These changes interfere with enzyme turnover, indicating that conformational effects related to binding and dissociation of Pi and calcium are tightly coupled to catalysis and energy transduction. Higher concentrations of urea produce irreversible denaturation, accompanied by total inhibition of calcium binding, enzyme phosphorylation with ATP, and association of ATPase chains in bidimensional crystals. Under these conditions, protein unfolding is manifested by a sharp reduction in the fluorescence of intrinsic tryptophan residues and of a covalently bound probe. These observations suggest that dimeric association and a tendency to form bidimensional crystals correspond to a basic property of the enzyme, which is linked to its native structure and whose character may change in the presence of ligands and/or during the catalytic cycle. On the other hand, the decavanadate-induced crystallization pattern cannot be interpreted in terms of a mechanistic relationship of ATPase dimerization with one of the intermediate states of the catalytic cycle. 相似文献

1. Concave-downward double-reciprocal plots were obtained for rabbit erythrocyte purine nucleoside phosphorylase when the concentration of Pi was varied over a wide range at a fixed saturating concentration of either inosine or deoxyinosine. Similar behaviour was also displayed by the calf spleen enzyme. 2. The degree of curvature of double-reciprocal plots was greatly modified by the presence of SO42-, introduced into the assay mixture with the linking enzyme xanthine oxidase; competitive inhibition by SO42- was observed over a narrow range of high Pi concentrations. 3. Partial inactivation with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) resulted in a marked alteration in the kinetic properties of the enzyme when Pi was the variable substrate. 4. Initial-velocity data are expressed in the form of Hill plots, and the significance of such plots is discussed. 相似文献

Inorganic phosphate (Pi) inhibits threonine synthase of Lemna, and cystathionine γ-synthase less strongly. AMP is an extremely potent and structurally specific inhibitor of threonine synthase. Each inhibition progressively decreases with increasing concentrations of O-phosphohomoserine (OPH). To study the in vivo effects of these inhibitions, Lemna was grown with a range of Pi concentrations. A 25,000-fold increase in Pi concentration in the culture medium caused an increase of only 6-fold in total phosphorus of the plants. This is explained by the fact that a high affinity Pi uptake system is selectively down-regulated during growth with high concentrations of Pi. Pi and AMP in plants grown with various Pi concentrations were determined, and concentrations estimated for chloroplasts, the organelle containing threonine synthase and cystathionine γ-synthase. Calculations indicated that for growth at standard external Pi (0.4 millimolar) or above, if total OPH were uniformly distributed within the plants, activities of the two enzymes in question would be severely inhibited, and each would fall two orders of magnitude below the amount required to provide threonine (plus isoleucine) or methionine adequate for growth. If OPH were restricted to chloroplasts, these inhibitions would be much less severe, resulting in enzyme activities approaching the required physiological amounts. Evidence is presented that even up to 50 millimolar external Pi, this ion does not limit production of threonine or methionine sufficiently to retard growth, consistent with the postulated localization of OPH within chloroplasts. 相似文献

The covalent modification of spinach leaf ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase leads to inactivation of both activator-stimulated and -unstimulated activity. Inactivation can be prevented if either the activator 3PGA or the inhibitor Pi are present during the modification. Pi proved to be more effective at protecting the enzyme from inactivation as it afforded 50% protection at 51 µM compared to 50% protection by 405 µM 3PGA. Partial modification of the enzyme using [14C]-phenylglyoxal leads to a decrease in bothV

0.5 and a decrease in the ability of the 3PGA to stimulate the enzyme's activity. Modification increased the enzyme's susceptibility to inhibition by Pi and completely abolished the cooperative binding of Pi seen in the unmodified enzyme in the presence of 3PGA. Thus, phenylglyoxal appears to interfere, with the normal allosteric regulation of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase from spinach leaf. Greater than 90% of the enzyme's activity is lost when 7.2 mol [14C]-phenylglyoxal are bound per mole of tetramer and this label is present in both the larger and small subunits. In addition, inactivation appears to involve two different arginine residues having different rates of modification. 相似文献

In the catalytic chain of Escherichia coli aspartate transcarbamylase, Tyr240 helps stabilize the T-state conformation by an intrachain hydrogen bond to Asp271. Changes in kinetic characteristics of ATCase that result from disruption of this bond by site-specific mutation of Tyr240----Phe have been investigated by isotopic exchanges at chemical equilibrium. The Tyr240----Phe (Y240F) mutation caused the rate of the [32P] carbamyl phosphate (C-P) in equilibrium Pi exchange to decrease by 2-8-fold, without altering the [14C]Asp in equilibrium N-carbamyl-L-aspartate (C-Asp) rate. The mutation also caused the S0.5 and Hill nH values to decrease in virtually every substrate saturation experiment. Upon increasing the concentrations of the C-P,Pi or C-P,C-Asp reactant-product pairs, inhibition effects observed with the C-P in equilibrium Pi exchange for wild-type enzyme were not apparent with the Y240F mutant enzyme. In contrast, upon increasing the concentrations of the Asp,C-Asp and Asp,Pi pairs, inhibition effects on C-P in equilibrium Pi observed with wild-type enzyme became stronger with the Y240F mutant enzyme. These data indicate that the Tyr240----Phe mutation alters the kinetic mechanism in two different ways: on the reactant side, C-P binding prior to Asp shifts from preferred to compulsory order, and, on the product side, C-Asp and Pi release changes from preferred to nearly random order. These conclusions were also confirmed on a quantitative basis by computer simulations and fitting of the data, which also produced an optimal set of rate constants for the Y240F enzyme. The Arrhenius plot for wild-type holoenzyme was biphasic, but those for catalytic subunits and Y240F enzyme were linear (monophasic). Taken together, the data indicate that the Tyr240----Phe mutation destabilizes the T-state and shifts the equilibrium for the T-R allosteric transition toward the R-state by increasing the rate of T----R conversion. 相似文献

Orthophosphate (Pi) modulates the activity and activation of ribulose 1,5-bis-phosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO) via a mechanism that is still controversial. Whereas its effects on the higher plant enzyme have been described, little is known about Pi regulation of the structurally similar, yet kinetically different cyanobacterial enzyme. We found that RuBisCO of Synechocystis PCC6803 was affected by Pi in a paradoxical fashion. On the one hand, Pi inhibited catalysis by competing with the substrate RuBP, and on the other hand it stimulated enzyme activation in a dual manner manifested by multiphasic kinetics, which differed from the effect on activation of the higher plant enzyme. Pi concentrations > 5 mM promoted the carbamylation of the cyanobacterial enzyme and the binding of Mg2+ to the carbanion at suboptimal concentrations of CO2 and Mg2+. Surprisingly, Pi also increased the activation level of the carbamylated enzyme via another putative site of interaction. In contrast with the higher plant RuBisCO, RuBP did not inhibit the stimulatory effect of phosphate on activation of the cyanobacterial enzyme, suggesting a Pi effect through a site other than the sugar binding site. The dual effect on activation could be distinguished by the phosphate analogue vanadate, which inhibited only the stimulation achieved at high phosphate concentrations. The elevation of RuBisCO activation at suboptimal levels of CO2 and high concentrations of RuBP suggests that in cyanobacteria Pi may have a role analogous to that of RuBisCO activase in higher plants. 相似文献

The steady state rate of ATP hydrolysis (v) by the gastric H,K-ATPase and the steady state level of phosphoenzyme (E-P) have been measured at 0 and 10 mM KCl; both v and E-P have a nonhyperbolic dependence on the ATP concentration that is consistent with negative cooperativity. The ratio of the rate of hydrolysis to phosphoenzyme (v/[E-P]) was found to vary with the concentration of ATP. Thus, for the rate law v = [E-P].k, k must be a function of the ATP concentration. This requires that ATP be able to bind to E-P or to an enzyme form that occurs after E-P but prior to an irreversible step, such as the loss of inorganic phosphate (Pi). At low ATP concentrations, product inhibition by Pi gives concave downward plots of 1/v against Pi concentration. Pi increases the apparent Km and decreases the apparent Vm. At saturating ATP concentrations, Pi is a noncompetitive inhibitor. These data show that ATP and Pi can bind to the H,K-ATPase simultaneously. They are inconsistent with mechanisms where the binding of ATP and Pi is mutually exclusive. 相似文献

The higher plant ADP-glucose (ADPG) pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), composed of two small subunits and two large subunits (LSs), produces ADPG, the sole substrate for starch biosynthesis from α-D-glucose 1-phosphate and ATP. This enzyme controls a key step in starch synthesis as its catalytic activity is activated by 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) and inhibited by orthophosphate (Pi). Previously, two mutations in the LS of potato AGPase (PLS), PLS-E38K and PLS-G101N, were found to increase sensitivity to 3-PGA activation and tolerance to Pi inhibition. In the present study, the double mutated enzyme (PLS-E38K/G101N) was evaluated. In a complementation assay of ADPG synthesis in an Escherichia coli mutant defective in the synthesis of ADPG, expression of PLS-E38K/G101N mediated higher glycogen production than wild-type potato AGPase (PLS-WT) and the single mutant enzymes, PLS-E38K and PLS-G101N, individually. Purified PLS-E38K/G101N showed higher sensitivity to 3-PGA activation and tolerance to Pi inhibition than PLS-E38K or PLS-G101N. Moreover, the enzyme activities of PLS-E38K, PLS-G101N, and PLS-E38K/G101N were more readily stimulated by other major phosphate-ester metabolites, such as fructose 6-phosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, and ribose 5-phosphate, than was that of PLS-WT. Hence, although the specific enzyme activities of the LS mutants toward 3-PGA were impaired to some extent by the mutations, our results suggest that their enhanced allosteric regulatory properties and the broadened effector selectivity gained by the same mutations not only offset the lowered enzyme catalytic turnover rates but also increase the net performance of potato AGPase in vivo in view of increased glycogen production in bacterial cells. 相似文献

The allosteric properties of AMP deaminase [EC 3.5.4.6] from chicken erythrocytes have been qualitatively and quantitatively accounted for by the concerted transition theory of Monod et al., on the assumption that this enzyme has different numbers of binding sites for each ligand. Theoretical curves yield a satisfactory fit for all experimental saturation functions with respect to activation by alkali metals and inhibition by Pi, assuming that the numbers of binding sites for AMP, alkali metals, and Pi are 4, 2, and 4, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by concentrations of ATP and GTP below 0.1 and 0.25 mM, respectively, whereas activation of the enzyme was observed at ATP and GTP concentrations above 0.4 and 1.5 mM, respectively. These unusual kinetics with respect to ATP and GTP could be also accounted for by assuming 2 inhibitory and 4 activating sites for each ligand. 相似文献

Glutamine synthetase (L-glutamate:ammonia ligase (ADP-forming), EC 6.3.1.2) from Anabaena cylindrica was inhibited by alanine, glycine, serine and aspartate. The effects of alanine and serine were uncompetitive with respect to glutamate, while those of glycine and asparatate were uncompetitive with respect to glutamate, while those of glycine and aspartate were non-competitive and mixed type respectively. Different pairs of amino acids and their various combinations caused a cumulative inhibition of the enzyme activity. Glutamine synthetase was also inhibited by ADP and AMP and both nucleotides affected the enzyme competitively with respect to ATP and non-competitively for glutamate. Inorganic pyrophosphate, between 2 and 3 mM, produced a very pronounced inhibiton of enzyme activity. The inhibition by PPi was uncompetitive for ATP. Various combinations of the adenine nucleotides, PPi and Pi exerted a cumulative inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity, as did the amino acids, in different combinations with either adenine nucleotides, PPi or Pi. The effects of the adenine nucleotides and the amino acids were more pronounced at higher concentrations of ammonia. Except for serine similar responses of these effectors were obtained with increasing concentrations of Mg2+. It is proposed that changes in the free concentrations of Mg2+ are important in energy-dependent regulation of the enzyme activity in this alga. 相似文献

Preincubation of F1-ATPase with ADP and Mg2+ leads to ADP binding at regulatory site inducing a hysteretic inhibition of ATP hydrolysis, i.e., an inhibition that slowly develops after Mg-ATP addition (Di Pietro, A., Penin, F., Godinot, C. and Gautheron, D.C. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 5671-5678). It is shown here that inorganic phosphate (Pi) together with ADP during preincubation abolishes the time-dependence of the inhibition after the addition of the substrate Mg-ATP. This preincubation in the presence of both Pi and ADP slowly leads to a conformation of the enzyme immediately inhibited after the addition of the substrate Mg-ATP. The Pi effect is half-maximal at 35 microM and pH 6.6, whereas a limited effect is induced at pH 8.0. The preincubation of F1-ATPase with Pi and ADP must last long enough (t1/2 = 5 min). The effects can be correlated to the amount of Pi bound to the enzyme, 1 mol Pi per mol (apparent KD of 33 microM) at saturation. Pi neither modifies the ADP binding nor the final level of the concomitant inhibition. When Pi is not present in the preincubation, the final stable rate of ADP-induced hysteretic inhibition is always reached when a near-constant amount of Pi has been generated during Mg-ATP hydrolysis. Kinetic experiments indicate that preincubation with ADP and Pi decreases both Vmax and Km which would favor a conformational change of the enzyme. Taking into account the Pi effects, a more precise model of hysteretic inhibition is proposed. The natural protein inhibitor IF1 efficiently prevents the binding of Pi produced by ATP hydrolysis indicating that the hysteretic inhibition and the IF1-dependent inhibition obey different mechanisms. 相似文献

Effects of phosphite (Phi) on phosphate (Pi) starvation responses were determined in Ulva lactuca L. by incubation in Pi‐limited (1 μM NaH2PO4) or Pi‐sufficient (100 μM NaH2PO4) seawater containing 0–3 mM Phi. Exposure to 1 μM NaH2PO4 decreased the growth rate and the content of free Pi and esterified‐P but increased the activities of extracellular alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.2.1) and intracellular acid phosphatase (ACP; EC 3.1.2.2); two ACP isozymes observed by activity staining on isoelectric focussing (IEF) gel were induced. The Km value of Pi uptake rate was decreased by incubation with 1 μM NaH2PO4 and the decrease in Km value was inhibited by 2 mM Phi, reflecting the operation of a high‐affinity Pi uptake system at low Pi concentrations. In the presence of Phi, the growth rate of Pi‐sufficient and Pi‐starved thalli decreased as Phi concentrations were increased from 0 to 2 mM. As Phi concentrations were increased from 0 to 2 mM, the free Pi contents in both Pi‐sufficient and Pi‐starved thalli decreased, but the esterified‐P contents in Pi‐starved thalli increased, whereas those in Pi‐sufficient thalli increased at 1 mM Phi and decreased at 2 mM Phi. Cell wall localized AP activity in both Pi‐sufficient and Pi‐starved thalli decreased as Phi concentrations were increased from 0 to 2 mM. Intracellular ACP activity in Pi‐starved thalli decreased as Phi concentrations were increased from 0 to 2 mM but was not affected in Pi‐sufficient thalli. The induction of ACP isozyme activity and high‐affinity Pi uptake system in Pi‐starved thalli was inhibited by Phi. The present investigation shows that Phi interrupts the sensing mechanisms of U. lactuca to Pi‐limiting conditions. 相似文献

Uptake and translocation of phosphate by pho2 mutant and wild-type seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The pho2 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. accumulates excessive Pi (inorganic phosphate) concentrations in shoots compared to wild-type plants (E. Delhaize
and P. Randall, 1995, Plant Physiol. 107: 207–213). In this study, a series of experiments was conducted to compare the uptake
and translocation of Pi by pho2 with that of wild-type plants. The pho2 mutants had about a twofold greater Pi uptake rate than wild-type plants under P-sufficient conditions and a greater proportion
of the Pi taken up accumulated in shoots of pho2. When shoots were removed, the uptake rate by roots was found to be similar for both genotypes, suggesting that the greater
Pi uptake by the intact pho2 mutant is due to a greater shoot sink for Pi. Although pho2 mutants could recycle 32Pi from shoots to roots through phloem the proportion of 32Pi translocated to roots was less than half of that found in wild-type plants. When transferred from P-sufficient to P-deficient
solutions, Pi concentrations in pho2 roots had a similar depletion rate to wild-type roots despite pho2 shoots having a fourfold greater Pi concentration than wild-type shoots throughout the experiment. We suggest that the pho2 phenotype could result from a partial defect in Pi transport in the phloem between shoots and roots or from an inability
of shoot cells to regulate internal Pi concentrations.
