FunctionTRXM1_ARATH Thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase involved in the redox regulation of enzymes of both reductive pentose phosphate pathway (Calvin-Benson cycle) and oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. Under reducing conditions, activates the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and the phosphoribulokinase, and inhibits. the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Activates NADP-malate dehydrogenase.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedPhotosynthetic electron transport occurs on the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts. Ferredoxin (Fd), the final acceptor in the electron transport chain, distributes electrons to several Fd-dependent enzymes including Fd-thioredoxin reductase (FTR). A cascade from Fd to FTR further reduces Thioredoxin (Trx), which tunes the activity of target metabolic enzymes eventually in a light-dependent manner. We previously reported that ten Trx isoforms in Arabidopsis thaliana can be clustered into three classes based on the kinetics of the FTR-dependent reduction (high-, middle-, and low-efficiency classes). In this study, we determined the X-ray structure of three electron transfer complexes of FTR and Trx isoform, Trx-y1, Trx-f2, and Trx-m2, as representative examples of each class. Superposition of the FTR structure with/without Trx showed no main chain structural changes upon complex formation. There was no significant conformational change for single and complexed Trx-m structures. Nonetheless, the interface of FTR:Trx complexes displayed significant variation. Comparative analysis of the three structures showed two types of intermolecular interactions; (i) common interactions shared by all three complexes and (ii) isoform-specific interactions, which might be important for fine tuning FTR:Trx activity. Differential electrostatic potentials of Trx isoforms may be key to isoform-specific interactions. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
