The provision of carbon substrates and reducing power for fatty acid synthesis in the heterotrophic plastids of developing embryos of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) has been investigated. Profiles of oil and storage protein accumulation were determined and embryos at 17 and 24 days after anthesis (DAA) were selected to represent early and late periods of oil accumulation. Plastids isolated from either 17 or 24 DAA embryos did not incorporate label from [1-(14)C]glucose 6-phosphate (Glc6P) into fatty acids. Malate, when supplied alone, supported the highest rates of fatty acid synthesis by the isolated plastids at both stages. Pyruvate supported rates of fatty acid synthesis at 17 DAA that were comparable to those supported by malate, but only when incubations also included Glc6P. The stimulatory effect of Glc6P on pyruvate utilization at 17 DAA was related to the rapid utilization of Glc6P through the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) at this stage. Addition of pyruvate to incubations containing [1-(14)C]Glc6P increased OPPP activity (measured as (14)CO(2) release), while the addition of malate suppressed it. Observations of the interactions between the rate of metabolite utilization for fatty acid synthesis and the rate of the OPPP are consistent with regulation of the OPPP by redox control of the plastidial glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity through the demand for NADPH. During pyruvate utilization for fatty acid synthesis, flux through the OPPP increases as NADPH is consumed, whereas during malate utilization, in which NADPH is produced by NADP-malic enzyme, flux through the OPPP is decreased.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to investigate the capacity for synthesis of starch and fatty acids from exogenous metabolites by plastids from developing embryos of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). A method was developed for the rapid isolation from developing embryos of intact plastids with low contamination by cytosolic enzymes. The plastids contain a complete glycolytic pathway, NADP-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NADP-6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, NADP-malic enzyme, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), and acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Organelle fractionation studies showed that 67% of the total cellular PDC activity was in the plastids. The isolated plastids were fed with 14C-labelled carbon precursors and the incorporation of 14C into starch and fatty acids was determined. 14C from glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P), fructose, glucose, fructose-6-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) was incorporated into starch in an intactness- and ATP-dependent manner. The rate of starch synthesis was highest from G-6-P, although fructose gave rates which were 70% of those from G-6-P. Glucose-1-phosphate was not utilized by intact plastids for starch synthesis. The plastids utilized pyruvate, G-6-P, DHAP, malate and acetate as substrates for fatty acid synthesis. Of these substrates, pyruvate and G-6-P supported the highest rates of synthesis. These studies show that several cytosolic metabolites may contribute to starch and/or fatty acid synthesis in the developing embryos of oilseed rape.  相似文献

The uptake in vitro of glucose (Glc)-6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) into plastids from the roots of 10- to 14-d-old pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Puget) plants was inhibited by oleoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) concentrations in the low micromolar range (1--2 microM). The IC(50) (the concentration of inhibitor that reduces enzyme activity by 50%) for the inhibition of Glc-6-P uptake was approximately 750 nM; inhibition was reversed by recombinant rapeseed (Brassica napus) acyl-CoA binding protein. In the presence of ATP (3 mM) and CoASH (coenzyme A; 0.3 mM), Glc-6-P uptake was inhibited by 60%, due to long-chain acyl-CoA synthesis, presumably from endogenous sources of fatty acids present in the preparations. Addition of oleoyl-CoA (1 microM) decreased carbon flux from Glc-6-P into the synthesis of starch and through the oxidative pentose phosphate (OPP) pathway by up to 73% and 40%, respectively. The incorporation of carbon from Glc-6-P into fatty acids was not detected under any conditions. Oleoyl-CoA inhibited the incorporation of acetate into fatty acids by 67%, a decrease similar to that when ATP was excluded from incubations. The oleoyl-CoA-dependent inhibition of fatty acid synthesis was attributable to a direct inhibition of the adenine nucleotide translocator by oleoyl-CoA, which indirectly reduced fatty acid synthesis by ATP deprivation. The Glc-6-P-dependent stimulation of acetate incorporation into fatty acids was reversed by the addition of oleoyl-CoA.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to investigate the partitioning of imported glucose 6-phosphate (Glc6P) to starch and fatty acids, and to CO2 via the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) in plastids isolated from developing embryos of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). The ability of the isolated plastids to utilize concurrently supplied substrates and the effects of these substrate combinations on the Glc6P partitioning were also assessed. The relative fluxes of carbon from Glc6P to starch, fatty acids, and to CO2 via the OPPP were close to 2∶1∶1 when Glc6P was supplied alone. Under these conditions NADPH generated via the OPPP was greater than that required by the concurrent rate of fatty acid synthesis. Fatty acid synthesis was unaffected by the presence or absence of exogenous NADH and/or NADPH and the requirement of fatty acid synthesis for reducing power is therefore met entirely by intraplastidial metabolism. When Glc6P was supplied in the presence of either pyruvate or pyruvate and acetate, the total flux from these metabolites to fatty acids was up to threefold greater than that from either Glc6P or pyruvate when they were supplied singly. In these experiments there was little competition between Glc6P and pyruvate in fatty acid synthesis and the flux to starch was unchanged. This implies that the starch and fatty acid biosynthesis pathways did not compete for the exogenously supplied ATP on which they were strongly dependent. When Glc6P and pyruvate were provided together, the NADPH generated by the OPPP pathway was less than that required by the concurrent rate of fatty acid synthesis. This suggests that the metabolism of exogenous Glc6P via the OPPP can contribute to the NADPH demand created during fatty acid synthesis but it also indicates that other intraplastidial sources of reducing power must be available under the in-vitro conditions used.  相似文献

Evidence is provided for a close link between glutamate (Glu) synthesis and the production of reducing power by the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) in barley ( Hordeum vulgare L. var. Alfeo) root plastids. A rapid procedure for isolating organelles gave yields of plastids of over 30%, 60% of which were intact. The formation of Glu by intact plastids fed with glutamine and 2-oxoglutarate, both substrates of glutamate synthase (GOGAT), depends on glucose-6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) supply. The whole process exhibited an apparent K(m Glc-6-P) of 0.45 mM and is abolished by azaserine, a specific inhibitor of GOGAT; ATP caused a decrease in the rate of Glu formation. Glucose and other sugar phosphates were not as effective in supporting Glu synthesis with respect to Glc-6-P; only ribose-5-phosphate, an intermediate of OPPP, supported rates equivalent to Glc-6-P. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Glc6PDH) rapidly purified from root plastids showed an apparent K(m Glc-6-P) of 0.96 mM and an apparent K(m NADP)(+) of 9 micro M. The enzyme demonstrated high tolerance to NADPH, exhibiting a K(i) (NADPH) of 58.6 micro M and selectively reacted with antibodies against potato plastidic, but not chloroplastic, Glc6PDH isoform. The data support the hypothesis that plastidic OPPP is the main site of reducing power supply for GOGAT within the plastids, and suggest that the plastidic OPPP would be able to sustain Glu synthesis under high NADPH:NADP(+) ratios even if the plastidic Glc6PDH may not be functioning at its highest rates.  相似文献

Plastids isolated from developing leaves and embryos of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) were incubated with substrates in the light or the dark, with or without exogenous ATP. Incorporation of HCO-3, and carbon from a range of substrates into fatty acids and/or starch by leaf chloroplasts was absolutely light-dependent and was unaffected by provision of ATP. Incorporation of HCO-3 into fatty acids and/or starch by embryo plastids was also light-dependent. However, the light-dependent rates attained, when expressed on a comparable basis, were less than 32% of those from Glc6P (plus ATP), which was the most effective substrate for starch and fatty acid synthesis. In the light alone the rates of carbon incorporation from Glc6P, pyruvate and acetate into fatty acids, and from Glc6P into starch by embryo plastids were less than 27% of the respective ATP-dependent (dark) rates. Light had no effect on these ATP-dependent rates of synthesis by embryo plastids. While transporter activities for both glucose and Glc6P were present in embryo plastids, leaf chloroplasts did not have the latter activity. It is concluded that light at in vivo levels can contribute energy to carbon metabolism in embryo plastids. However, this contribution is likely to be small and these plastids are therefore largely dependent upon interaction with the cytosol for the ATP, reducing power and carbon precursors that are required for maximal rates of starch and fatty acid synthesis.  相似文献

Plastids are the site of the reductive and the oxidative pentose phosphate pathways, which both generate pentose phosphates as intermediates. A plastidic transporter from Arabidopsis has been identified that is able to transport, in exchange with inorganic phosphate or triose phosphates, xylulose 5-phosphate (Xul-5-P) and, to a lesser extent, also ribulose 5-phosphate, but does not accept ribose 5-phosphate or hexose phosphates as substrates. Under physiological conditions, Xul-5-P would be the preferred substrate. Therefore, the translocator was named Xul-5-P/phosphate translocator (XPT). The XPT shares only approximately 35% to 40% sequence identity with members of both the triose phosphate translocator and the phosphoenolpyruvate/phosphate translocator classes, but a higher identity of approximately 50% to glucose 6-phosphate/phosphate translocators. Therefore, it represents a fourth group of plastidic phosphate translocators. Database analysis revealed that plant cells contain, in addition to enzymes of the oxidative branch of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, ribose 5-phosphate isomerase and ribulose 5-phosphate epimerase in both the cytosol and the plastids, whereas the transketolase and transaldolase converting the produced pentose phosphates to triose phosphates and hexose phosphates are probably solely confined to plastids. It is assumed that the XPT function is to provide the plastidic pentose phosphate pathways with cytosolic carbon skeletons in the form of Xul-5-P, especially under conditions of a high demand for intermediates of the cycles.  相似文献

Many environmental and experimental conditions lead to accumulation of carbohydrates in photosynthetic tissues. This situation is typically associated with major changes in the mRNA and protein complement of the cell, including metabolic repression of photosynthetic gene expression, which can be induced by feeding carbohydrates directly to leaves. In this study we examined the carbohydrate transport properties of chloroplasts isolated from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaves fed with glucose for several days. These chloroplasts contain large quantities of starch, can perform photosynthetic 3-phosphoglycerate reduction, and surprisingly also have the ability to perform starch synthesis from exogenous glucose-6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) both in the light and in darkness, similarly to heterotrophic plastids. Glucose-1-phosphate does not act as an exogenous precursor for starch synthesis. Light, ATP, and 3-phosphoglyceric acid stimulate Glc-6-P-dependent starch synthesis. Short-term uptake experiments indicate that a novel Glc-6-P-translocator capacity is present in the envelope membrane, exhibiting an apparent Km of 0.54 mM and a Vmax of 2.9 [mu]mol Glc-6-P mg-1 chlorophyll h-1. Similar results were obtained with chloroplasts isolated from glucose-fed potato leaves and from water-stressed spinach leaves. The generally held view that sugar phosphates transported by chloroplasts are confined to triose phosphates is not supported by these results. A physiological role for a Glc-6-P translocator in green plastids is presented with reference to the source/sink function of the leaf.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to determine in what form carbon destined for starch synthesis crosses the membranes of plastids in developing pea (Pisum sativum L.) embryos. Plastids were isolated mechanically and incubated in the presence of ATP with the following 14C-labelled substrates: glucose, fructose, glucose 6-phosphate, glucose 1-phosphate, fructose 6-phosphate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Glucose 6-phosphate was the only substrate that supported physiologically relevant rates of starch synthesis. Incorporation of label from glucose 6-phosphate into starch was dependent upon the integrity of the plastids and the presence of ATP. The rate of incorporation approached saturation at a glucose 6-phosphate concentration of less than 1 mM. It is argued that glucose 6-phosphate is likely to enter the plastid as the source of carbon for starch synthesis in vivo.Abbreviations ADPG PPase ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase - DHAP dihydroxyacetone phosphate  相似文献

We isolated pgi1-1, an Arabidopsis mutant with a decreased plastid phospho-glucose (Glc) isomerase activity. While pgi1-1 mutant has a deficiency in leaf starch synthesis, it accumulates starch in root cap cells. It has been shown that a plastid transporter for hexose phosphate transports cytosolic Glc-6-P into plastids and expresses restricted mainly to the heterotrophic tissues. The decreased starch content in leaves of the pgi1-1 mutant indicates that cytosolic Glc-6-P cannot be efficiently transported into chloroplasts to complement the mutant's deficiency in chloroplastic phospho-Glc isomerase activity for starch synthesis. We cloned the Arabidopsis PGI1 gene and showed that it encodes the plastid phospho-Glc isomerase. The pgi1-1 allele was found to have a single nucleotide substitution, causing a Ser to Phe transition. While the flowering times of the Arabidopsis starch-deficient mutants pgi1, pgm1, and adg1 were similar to that of the wild type under long-day conditions, it was significantly delayed under short-day conditions. The pleiotropic phenotype of late flowering conferred by these starch metabolic mutations suggests that carbohydrate metabolism plays an important role in floral initiation.  相似文献

Isolated cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) bud plastids, purified by isopycnic centrifugation in density gradients of Percoll, were found to be highly intact, to be practically devoid of extraplastidial contaminations, and to retain all the enzymes involved in fatty acid, phosphatidic acid, and monogalactosyldiacylglycerol synthesis. Purified plastids possess all the enzymes needed to convert triose phosphate to starch and vice versa, and are capable of conversion of glycerate 3-phosphate to pyruvate for fatty acid synthesis. They are also capable of oxidation of hexose phosphate and conversion to triose phosphate via the oxidative pentosephosphate pathway. Cauliflower bud plastids prove to be, therefore, biochemically very flexible organelles.  相似文献

The potential role of the plastidial oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) in providing the NADPH for fatty acid synthesis in plastids from developing embryos of Brassica napus (L.) has been investigated. Measurements of distributions of enzyme activities in fractions obtained from homogenates of isolated embryos have revealed that the glucose 6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases are present in both cytosol and plastid, as is ribose 5-phosphate isomerase. However, transketolase and transaldolase are most probably confined to the plastid, while ribulose 5-phosphate epimerase is essentially cytosolic, although a very small proportion of plastid-localized activity cannot be ruled out. The activity of the OPPP in intact plastids was measured by the release of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]glucose 6-phosphate. Activity was detectable in the absence of electron sinks created by the addition of metabolites to the incubation media and was stimulated 1.3-, 3.2-, and 7.9-fold by the respective additions of glutamine plus 2-oxoglutarate, cofactors and substrates for fatty acid synthesis, or methyl viologen. An increase in OPPP activity in response to additions that are absolutely required for fatty acid synthesis in these isolated plastids provides direct evidence that these two processes are connected, most probably by NADP/NADPH metabolism. The OPPP activity with methyl viologen was more than twice that during fatty acid synthesis, suggesting that the latter is not limited by OPPP capacity. Light energy may also contribute to reductant provision and, consistent with the possibility of maintenance of a balance of NADPH from light and the OPPP, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in the isolated plastids was decreased by light or by DTT.  相似文献

Metabolism and transport in non-photosynthetic plastids   总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4  
Plastids in non-photosynthetic tissue are the site of fattyacid, starch and amino acid synthesis. The intermediates tosupport these activities are imported from the cytoplasm orgenerated by carbohydrate oxidation within the organelle. Thisreview considers the current understanding of the nature ofthe substrates which are transported into such plastids, theinteraction between pathways within the organelle which havea supply and demand relationship, and pathways which potentiallycompete for substrates.

Starch metabolism in developing embryos of oilseed rape   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
The aim of this work was to characterise the metabolism of starch in developing embryos of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Topaz). The accumulation of starch in embryos in siliques which were darkened or had been exposed to the light was similar, suggesting that the starch is synthesised from imported sucrose rather than via photosynthesis in the embryo. Starch content and the activities of plastidial enzymes required for synthesis of starch from glucose 6-phosphate (Glc6P) both peaked during the early-mid stage of cotyledon development (i.e. during the early part of oil accumulation) and then declined. The mature embryo contained almost no starch. The starch-degrading enzymes α-(EC 3.2.1.1) and β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) and phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) were present throughout development. Most of the activity of these three enzymes was extraplastidial and therefore unlikely to be involved in starch degradation, but there were distinct plastidial and extraplastidial isoforms of all three enzymes. Activity gels indicated that distinct plastidial isoforms increase during the change from net synthesis to net degradation of starch. Plastids isolated from embryos at stages both before and after the maximum starch content could convert Glc6P to starch although the rate was lower at the later stage. The results are consistent with the idea that starch synthesis and degradation occur simultaneously during embryo development. The possible roles of transient starch accumulation during embryo development are discussed. Received: 15 May 1997 / Accepted: 30 May 1997  相似文献

Almost all glucosyl transfer reactions rely on glucose-1-phosphate (Glc-1-P) that either immediately acts as glucosyl donor or as substrate for the synthesis of the more widely used Glc dinucleotides, ADPglucose or UDPglucose. In this communication, we have analyzed two Glc-1-P-related processes: the carbon flux from externally supplied Glc-1-P to starch by either mesophyll protoplasts or intact chloroplasts from Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). When intact protoplasts or chloroplasts are incubated with [U-(14)C]Glc-1-P, starch is rapidly labeled. Incorporation into starch is unaffected by the addition of unlabeled Glc-6-P or Glc, indicating a selective flux from Glc-1-P to starch. However, illuminated protoplasts incorporate less (14)C into starch when unlabeled bicarbonate is supplied in addition to the (14)C-labeled Glc-1-P. Mesophyll protoplasts incubated with [U-(14)C]Glc-1-P incorporate (14)C into the plastidial pool of adenosine diphosphoglucose. Protoplasts prepared from leaves of mutants of Arabidopsis that lack either the plastidial phosphorylase or the phosphoglucomutase isozyme incorporate (14)C derived from external Glc-1-P into starch, but incorporation into starch is insignificant when protoplasts from a mutant possessing a highly reduced ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase activity are studied. Thus, the path of assimilatory starch biosynthesis initiated by extraplastidial Glc-1-P leads to the plastidial pool of adenosine diphosphoglucose, and at this intermediate it is fused with the Calvin cycle-driven route. Mutants lacking the plastidial phosphoglucomutase contain a small yet significant amount of transitory starch.  相似文献

By using inhibitors and stimulators of different metabolic pathways the interdependence of the pentose phosphate cycle and lipogenesis in isolated fat-cells was studied. Rotenone, which is known to inhibit electron transport in the respiratory chain, blocked glucose breakdown at the site of pyruvate dehydrogenase. Consequently, because of the lack of acetyl-CoA, fatty acid synthesis was almost abolished. A concomitant decrease in pentose phosphate-cycle activity was observed. Phenazine methosulphate stimulated pentose phosphate-cycle activity about five- to ten-fold without a considerable effect on fatty acid synthesis. The influence of rotenone on both the pentose phosphate cycle and lipogenesis could be overcome by addition of phenazine methosulphate, indicating that rotenone has no direct effect on these pathways. The decreased rate of the pentose phosphate cycle in the presence of rotenone therefore has to be considered as a consequence of decreased fatty acid synthesis. The rate of glucose catabolism via the pentose phosphate cycle in adipocytes appears to be determined by the requirement of NADPH for lipogenesis. Treatment of cells with 6-aminonicotinamide caused an accumulation of 6-phosphogluconate, indicating an inhibition of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. The rate of glucose metabolism via the pentose phosphate cycle as well as the rate of fatty acid synthesis, however, was not affected by 6-aminonicotinamide treatment and could still be stimulated by addition of insulin. Since even in cells from starved animals, in which the pentose phosphate-cycle activity is extremely low, no accumulation of 6-phosphogluconate was observed, it is concluded that the control of this pathway is achieved by the rate of regeneration of NADP at the site of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase.  相似文献

In Vitro Biosynthesis of Phosphorylated Starch in Intact Potato Amyloplasts   总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2  
Intact amyloplasts from potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were used to study starch biosynthesis and phosphorylation. Assessed by the degree of intactness and by the level of cytosolic and vacuolar contamination, the best preparations were selected by searching for amyloplasts containing small starch grains. The isolated, small amyloplasts were 80% intact and were free from cytosolic and vacuolar contamination. Biosynthetic studies of the amyloplasts showed that [1-14C]glucose-6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) was an efficient precursor for starch synthesis in a manner highly dependent on amyloplast integrity. Starch biosynthesis from [1-14C]Glc-1-P in small, intact amyloplasts was 5-fold lower and largely independent of amyloplast intactness. When [33P]Glc-6-P was administered to the amyloplasts, radiophosphorylated starch was produced. Isoamylase treatment of the starch followed by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection revealed the separated phosphorylated α-glucans. Acid hydrolysis of the phosphorylated α-glucans and high-performance anion-exchange chromatography analyses showed that the incorporated phosphate was preferentially positioned at C-6 of the Glc moiety. The incorporation of radiolabel from Glc-1-P into starch in preparations of amyloplasts containing large grains was independent of intactness and most likely catalyzed by starch phosphorylase bound to naked starch grains.  相似文献

Acyl-CoA esters inhibit the plastidial glucose 6-phosphate (Glc-6-P) transporter and the adenylate transporter; the IC(50) values for the inhibition by oleoyl-CoA (18:1-CoA) are 200-400 nM and 1-2 microM respectively. The inhibition of either of these processes significantly reduces the flux of carbon from Glc-6-P or from acetate into long-chain fatty acids. The effect is dependent on the acyl chain length, e.g. lauryl-CoA is less inhibitory than oleoyl-CoA, causing 34 and 68% inhibition respectively of Glc-6-P uptake after 30 s. The inhibition of Glc-6-P and ATP transport is alleviated by addition of an equivalent concentration of acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) or BSA. Acyl-CoAs do not inhibit pyruvate or glucose transporters. The endogenous concentrations of acyl-CoAs and ACBP are similar during embryo maturation.  相似文献

1. The following were measured in adipose-tissue pieces, obtained from 7–9 month-old sheep, before or after the tissue pieces had been maintained in tissue culture for 24 h: the rates of synthesis from glucose of fatty acids, acylglycerol glycerol, pyruvate and lactate; the rate of glucose oxidation to CO2; the rate of glucose oxidation via the pentose phosphate pathway; the activities of hexokinase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, pyruvate dehydrogenase and ATP citrate lyase; the intra- and extra-cellular water content; the concentration of various metabolites and ATP, ADP and AMP. 2. The proportion of glucose carbon converted into the various products in sheep adipose tissue differs markedly from that observed in rat adipose tissue. 3. There was a general increase in the rate of glucose utilization by the adipose-tissue pieces after maintenance in tissue culture; largest changes were seen in the rates of glycolysis and fatty acid synthesis from glucose. These increases are paralleled by an increase in pyruvate kinase activity. There was no change in the activities of the other enzymes as measured, although the net flux through all the enzymes increased. 4. Incubation of fresh adipose-tissue pieces for 2–6h led to an increase in the affinity of pyruvate kinase for phosphoenolpyruvate. 5. The rate of pyruvate production by glycolysis was greater than the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase of the tissue. 6. The results suggest that both pyruvate kinase and pyruvate dehydrogenase have important roles in restricting the utilization of glucose carbon for fatty acid synthesis in sheep adipose tissue.  相似文献
