ABSTRACT
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and phosphoribulokinase (PRK) are two enzymes of the Calvin Benson cycle that stand out for some peculiar properties they have in common (i) they both use the products of light reactions for catalysis (NADPH for GAPDH, ATP for PRK), (ii) they are both light-regulated through thioredoxins and (iii) they are both involved in the formation of regulatory supramolecular complexes in the dark or low photosynthetic conditions, with or without the regulatory protein CP12. In the complexes, enzymes are transiently inactivated but ready to recover full activity after complex dissociation. Fully active GAPDH and PRK are in large excess for the functioning of the Calvin-Benson cycle, but they can limit the cycle upon complex formation. Complex dissociation contributes to photosynthetic induction. CP12 also controls PRK concentration in model photosynthetic organisms like Arabidopsis thaliana and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The review combines in vivo and in vitro data into an integrated physiological view of the role of GAPDH and PRK dark complexes in the regulation of photosynthesis.
