phosphoprotein | in C4 plants, pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) activity is tightly dark/light regulated by reversible phosphorylation of an active-site Thr residue, catalyzed by PPDK regulatory protein (PDRP). Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of PPDK lead to its inactivation and activation, respectively. Light intensity rather than the light/dark transition regulates PPDK activity by modulating the reversible phosphorylation at Thr527 of PPDK in Zea mays. PDRP catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of PPDK rapidly and efficiently, but a subtle conformational change around PPDK's active site Thr527 will affect its catalytic efficiency. Analysis by high-resolution mass spectrometry | Zea mays |

PDRP catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of PPDK rapidly and efficiently, but a subtle conformational change around PPDK's active site Thr527 will affect its catalytic efficiency. Phosphorylation at Thr527 of PPDK is independent of the light/dark transition. The plastidic isozyme shows phosphorylation at four serine (Ser)/Thr residues, Thr527, Ser528, Thr309, and Ser506 are targets of PDRP. The two hydrogen bonds between the highly conserved residues Ser528 and Gly525 are required for PDRP-mediated phosphorylation of the active-site Thr527 of the isozyme. Analysis by high resolution mass spectrometry, locations of the four phosphorylation residues in the primary sequence and the three-dimensional structure of C4PPDK, modelling, overview | Zea mays |

The amount of PPDK (unphosphorylated) involved in C4 photosynthesis is strictly controlled by light intensity. Diverse regulatory pathways may work alone or in combination to fine-tune C4PPDK activity in response to changes in light | Zea mays |
