Characteristics of photosynthesis in rice plants transformed with an antisense Rubisco activase gene
INTRODUCTION Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxy-genase (Rubisco) is a key enzyme that initiates bothphotosynthetic and photorespiratory carbon me-tabolism. However, Rubisco has to be activated andcarbamylated to become catalytically competent.Rubisco activase (RCA) can alter the activity ofRubisco by facilitating the dissociation of tightlybound sugar phosphates from Rubisco in a processthat requires ATP hydrolysis. RCA, a chloroplastprotein encoded by a nuclea… 相似文献

Characteristics of photosynthesis in rice plants transformed with an antisense Rubisco activase gene
Transgenic rice plants with an antisense gene inserted via Agrobacterium tumefaciens were used to explore the impact of the reduction of Rubisco activase (RCA) on Rubisco and photosynthesis. In this study, transformants containing 15% to 35% wild type Rubisco activase were selected, which could survive in ambient CO2 concentration but grew slowly compared with wild type controls. Gas exchange measurements indicated that the rate of photosynthesis decreased significantly, while stomatal conductance and transpiration rate did not change; and that the intercellular CO2 concentration even increased. Rubisco determination showed that these plants had approximately twice as much Rubisco as the wild types,although they showed 70% lower rate of photosynthesis, which was likely an acclimation response to the reduction inRubsico activase and/or the reduction in carbamylation. 相似文献
