The pea chloroplastic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) antisense construct reduced the endogenous level of expression of the corresponding Arabidopsis thaliana gene. The reduction of foliar FBPase activity in the transformants T(2) and T(3) generation ranged from 20% to 42%, and correlated with

A full-length cDNA clone encoding fructose-6-phosphate, 2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase from Arabidopsis thaliana (AtF2KP) was isolated. The encoded protein is composed of two different regions: (i) a 400 amino acid COOH-terminal region, covering the catalytic region of the protein which is

The metabolic role and regulation of selenium, particularly in plants, is poorly understood. One of the proteins probably involved in the metabolic regulation of this element is the selenium-binding protein (SBP) with homologues present across prokaryotic and eukaryotic species. The high degree of

The enzyme fructose-6-phosphate 2-kinase (F6P,2K; 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase)/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (F26BPase) catalyses the formation and degradation of the regulatory metabolite fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. A cDNA encoding the bifunctional plant enzyme isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana (AtF2KP)

The genome of Arabidopsis thaliana contains six genes, AtPMT1 to AtPMT6 (Arabidopsis thaliana POLYOL/MONOSACCHARIDE TRANSPORTER 1-6), which form a distinct subfamily within the large family of more than 50 monosaccharide transporter-like (MST-like) genes. So far, only AtPMT5 [formerly named AtPLT5

Sugars are evolutionarily conserved signaling molecules that regulate the growth and development of both unicellular and multicellular organisms. As sugar-producing photosynthetic organisms, plants utilize glucose as one of their major signaling molecules. However, the details of other sugar

Photosynthetic carbon metabolism was investigated in antisense Arabidopsis lines with decreased expression of sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) and cytosolic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (cFBPase). In the light, triose phosphates are exported from the chloroplast and converted to sucrose via cFBPase

Sucrose synthase (SuSy) catalyzes the reversible conversion of sucrose and NDP into the corresponding nucleotide-sugars and fructose. The Arabidopsis genome possesses six SUS genes (AtSUS1-6) that code for proteins with SuSy activity. As a first step to investigate optimum fructose and UDP-glucose

The phosphorylation status of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphatase (EC 2.7.1.105/ EC 3.1.3.46) in rosette leaves of Arabidopsis was examined. Immunoblotting with specific antisera detected 96-kDa and 92-kDa bands in the crude protein extracts from rosette leaves of

TPST is involved in fructose signaling to regulate the root development and expression of genes in biological processes including auxin biosynthesis and accumulation in Arabidopsis. Sulfonation of proteins by tyrosine protein sulfotransferases (TPST) has been implicated in many important biological

Sorbitol is converted to fructose in Rosaceae species by SORBITOL DEHYDROGENASE (SDH, EC 1.1.1.14), especially in sink organs. SDH has also been found in non-Rosaceae species and here we show that the protein encoded by At5g51970 in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. possesses the molecular

Sucrose transport is the central system for the allocation of carbon resources in vascular plants. During growth and development, plants control carbon distribution by coordinating sites of sucrose synthesis and cleavage in different plant organs and different cellular locations. Sucrose synthase,

In pea (Pisum sativum), the protein-lysine methyltransferase (PsLSMT) catalyzes the trimethylation of Lys-14 in the large subunit (LS) of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), the enzyme catalyzing the CO(2) fixation step during photosynthesis. Homologs of PsLSMT, herein

The synthesis of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is a key regulatory step for the production of hemes and chlorophyll via the tetrapyrrole synthesis pathway. The first enzyme committed to ALA synthesis is glutamyl-tRNA reductase encoded in Arabidopsis by a small family of nuclear-encoded HEMA genes. To
