Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is believed to play an important role in producing malate as a substrate for fatty acid synthesis by leucoplasts of the developing castor oilseed (COS) endosperm. Two kinetically distinct isoforms of COS PEPC were resolved by gel filtration chromatography and purified. PEPC1 is a typical 410-kDa homotetramer composed of 107-kDa subunits (p107). In contrast, PEPC2 exists as an unusual 681-kDa hetero-octamer composed of the same p107 found in PEPC1 and an associated 64-kDa polypeptide (p64) that is structurally and immunologically unrelated to p107. Relative to PEPC1, PEPC2 demonstrated significantly enhanced thermal stability and a much lower sensitivity to allosteric activators (Glc-6-P, Glc-1-P, Fru-6-P, glycerol-3-P) and inhibitors (Asp, Glu, malate) and pH changes within the physiological range. Nondenaturing PAGE of clarified extracts followed by in-gel PEPC activity staining indicated that the ratio of PEPC1:PEPC2 increases during COS development such that only PEPC1 is detected in mature COS. Dissimilar developmental profiles and kinetic properties support the hypotheses that (i) PEPC1 functions to replenish dicarboxylic acids consumed through transamination reactions required for storage protein synthesis, whereas (ii) PEPC2 facilitates PEP flux to malate in support of fatty acid synthesis. Interestingly, the respective physical and kinetic properties of COS PEPC1 and PEPC2 are remarkably comparable with those of the homotetrameric lowMr Class 1 and heteromeric highMr Class 2 PEPC isoforms of unicellular green algae.

Vidal J. O' Leary M.H. Annu. Rev. Plant Physiol. Plant Mol. Biol. 1996; 47: 273-298Google Scholar). It catalyzes the irreversible ॆ-carboxylation of PEP in the presence of Mg2+ and HCO3− to yield oxaloacetate and Pi. PEPC is abundant in C4 and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) leaves where it participates in photosynthesis by catalyzing the initial fixation of atmospheric CO2. Both allosteric mechanisms and covalent modification are involved in PEPC control in C4 and CAM leaves (1Chollet R. Vidal J. O' Leary M.H. Annu. Rev. Plant Physiol. Plant Mol. Biol. 1996; 47: 273-298Google Scholar, 2Rajagopalan A., V Devi M.T. Raghavendra A.S. Photosynth. Res. 1994; 39: 115-135Google Scholar, 3Nimmo H.G. Batey N.H. Dickinson H.G. Hetherington S.M. Society for Experimental Biology Seminar Series 53: Post Translational Modifications in Plants. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United Kingdom1993: 161-170Google Scholar). Early work established that C4 and CAM PEPCs are controlled by a diurnal cycle that modulates their sensitivity to l-malate inhibition (1Chollet R. Vidal J. O' Leary M.H. Annu. Rev. Plant Physiol. Plant Mol. Biol. 1996; 47: 273-298Google Scholar, 2Rajagopalan A., V Devi M.T. Raghavendra A.S. Photosynth. Res. 1994; 39: 115-135Google Scholar, 3Nimmo H.G. Batey N.H. Dickinson H.G. Hetherington S.M. Society for Experimental Biology Seminar Series 53: Post Translational Modifications in Plants. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United Kingdom1993: 161-170Google Scholar). This cycle is the result of phosphorylation of the PEPC homotetramer by an endogenous Ca2+-independent PEPC protein kinase and dephosphorylation by a protein phosphatase type 2A at a highly conserved seryl residue localized near the N terminus of the 100–110-kDa PEPC subunit (1Chollet R.

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United Kingdom1993: 161-170Google Scholar).Relative to C4 and CAM PEPCs, the properties of the enzyme from non-green plant tissues are less well understood. Although proposed roles for nonphotosynthetic PEPCs are diverse, a crucial PEPC function is the anaplerotic replenishment of citric acid cycle intermediates consumed during biosynthesis and nitrogen assimilation (1Chollet R. Vidal J. O' Leary M.H. Annu. Rev. Plant Physiol. Plant Mol. Biol. 1996; 47: 273-298Google Scholar). As with C4 and CAM PEPCs, the PEPC of C3leaves and nonphotosynthetic tissues can be controlled by allosteric effectors and reversible phosphorylation (4Duff S.M.G. Chollet R.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
