Abstract:The chloroplast new protein factor that was recently shown to link light to the activation of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase was identified as a previously unrecognized iron-sulfur protein. This protein, given the name “ferralterin,” was purified to homogeneity from spinach leaves and from the blue-green alga (cyanobacterium) Nostoc muscorum. Ferralterin from both sources showed a visible absorption peak at 410nm, a molecular weight of about 30,000 and (provisionally) 4 g-atoms per mole each of nonheme iron and acid labile sulfide. The homogeneous ferralterin preparations catalyzed a light-dependent activation of chloroplast fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase that was dependent only on chlorophyll-containing membranes.
