| Abstract | Regulatory properties of Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC, EC 4.1.1.31) in three CAM species, Kalanchoë pinnata, K. daigremontiana and Ananas comosus (pineapple) were examined. PEPC activity in the leaves of the three CAM species exhibited diurnal changes peaking during the first 2-h of darkness in Kalanchoë species and at midnight in pineapple, and then decreasing drastically until dawn. The oscillations of PEPC activity were far greater in Kalanchoë species than in pineapple. In the presence of 2 mM malate, the activity of PEPC decreased in all three CAM species, but the sensitivity of PEPC to malate was markedly different between pineapple and the Kalanchoë species. The malate sensitivity was 2- to 3-times higher in pineapple than in the Kalanchoë species during the dark period, but it was almost the same during the light period. PEPC in the three CAM species was phosphorylated only during the dark period. PEPC proteins were highly phosphorylated during the first 2-h of darkness in Kalanchoë species and at midnight in pineapple, and then they decreased drastically during the latter part of darkness. CAM-specific isoforms of PEPC in the leaves of the three CAM species contained a highly conserved phosphorylation site of Ser-11 at the N-terminus. These PEPC isoforms displayed diurnal changes in transcript abundance, with the peak of transcripts occurring during the dark period. The day/night changes in PEPC transcript abundance were mirrored by changes in the PEPC protein and corresponding enzyme activity over the diurnal cycle. These findings suggest that the diurnal regulation in PEPC activity is determined by the amount of PEPC protein as well as the posttranslational control in these CAM species. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
