The control of 3-phosphoglycerate reduction in isolated chloroplasts by the concentrations of ATP, ADP and 3-phosphoglycerate. 1979

S P Robinson, and D A Walker

1. Oxygen evolution by reconstituted chloroplasts with 3-phosphoglycerate as substrate was inhibited by ADP. This inhibition was overcome by increased concentrations of 3-phosphoglycerate or by the addition of excess ATP. 2. The initial rate of 3-phosphoglycerate reduction by chloroplast stromal extracts, measured as 3-phosphoglycerate-dependent oxidation of NADPH, was also dependent on the concentrations of 3-phosphoglycerate, ADP and ATP. 3. Within the range of concentrations of 3-phosphoglycerate, ADP and ATP expected to occur within intact chloroplasts, the rate of 3-phosphoglycerate (PGA) reduction by stromal extract was proportional to the ratio [ATP] [PGA]/[ADP]. 4. These results are consistent with the notion that the substrates and products of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase control the rate of 3-phosphoglycerate reduction via a mass action effect.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D010100 Oxygen An element with atomic symbol O, atomic number 8, and atomic weight [15.99903; 15.99977]. It is the most abundant element on earth and essential for respiration. Dioxygen,Oxygen-16,Oxygen 16
D010788 Photosynthesis The synthesis by organisms of organic chemical compounds, especially carbohydrates, from carbon dioxide using energy obtained from light rather than from the oxidation of chemical compounds. Photosynthesis comprises two separate processes: the light reactions and the dark reactions. In higher plants; GREEN ALGAE; and CYANOBACTERIA; NADPH and ATP formed by the light reactions drive the dark reactions which result in the fixation of carbon dioxide.

D010944 Plants Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of kingdom Plantae. Plants acquired chloroplasts by direct endosymbiosis of CYANOBACTERIA. They are characterized by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localized regions of cell divisions (MERISTEMS); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absence of nervous and sensory systems; and an alternation of haploid and diploid generations. It is a non-taxonomical term most often referring to LAND PLANTS. In broad sense it includes RHODOPHYTA and GLAUCOPHYTA along with VIRIDIPLANTAE. Plant
D002736 Chloroplasts Plant cell inclusion bodies that contain the photosynthetic pigment CHLOROPHYLL, which is associated with the membrane of THYLAKOIDS. Chloroplasts occur in cells of leaves and young stems of plants. They are also found in some forms of PHYTOPLANKTON such as HAPTOPHYTA; DINOFLAGELLATES; DIATOMS; and CRYPTOPHYTA.
