Popis: Significance The Calvin–Benson (CB) cycle in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria fixes most of the carbon in most of the biomass on Earth. The CB cycle is regulated by the redox state, which enables it to be turned off in the dark. One part of this regulatory system is the small protein CP12, which binds to 2 essential CB-cycle enzymes in the dark, inactivating them. We have solved the structure of the complex between CP12 and the enzymes, explaining the mechanism of deactivation. Now that this is understood, this structure can be used as the starting point for modulating the redox regulation, which may have applications in improving crop productivity.
Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria fix carbon dioxide to organic carbon with the Calvin–Benson (CB) cycle. Phosphoribulokinase (PRK) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) are essential CB-cycle enzymes that control substrate availability for the carboxylation enzyme Rubisco. PRK consumes ATP to produce the Rubisco substrate ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP). GAPDH catalyzes the reduction step of the CB cycle with NADPH to produce the sugar glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP), which is used for regeneration of RuBP and is the main exit point of the cycle. GAPDH and PRK are coregulated by the redox state of a conditionally disordered protein CP12, which forms a ternary complex with both enzymes. However, the structural basis of CB-cycle regulation by CP12 is unknown. Here, we show how CP12 modulates the activity of both GAPDH and PRK. Using thermophilic cyanobacterial homologs, we solve crystal structures of GAPDH with different cofactors and CP12 bound, and the ternary GAPDH-CP12-PRK complex by electron cryo-microscopy, we reveal that formation of the N-terminal disulfide preorders CP12 prior to binding the PRK active site, which is resolved in complex with CP12. We find that CP12 binding to GAPDH influences substrate accessibility of all GAPDH active sites in the binary and ternary inhibited complexes. Our structural and biochemical data explain how CP12 integrates responses from both redox state and nicotinamide dinucleotide availability to regulate carbon fixation.
