Le. Anderson et al., PYRIDINE NUCLEOTIDE-DEPENDENT CHANGES IN THE PHASE-PARTITIONING BEHAVIOR OF NADP-LINKED GLYCERALDEHYDE-3-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE FROM PEA-CHLOROPLASTS, PLANT SCI, 99(1), 1994, pp. 39-42
Addition of NAD(H) or NADP(H) to an aqueous two-phase polyethylene gly
col-dextran system affects the partitioning of purified pea (Pisum sat
ivum L.) chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase. The results ind
icate that the nature of the bound pyridine nucleotide affects the con
formation and the state of aggregation of the enzyme, as suggested ear
lier by size exclusion (R. Cerff, fur. J. Biochem., 82 (1978) 45-53) a
nd sucrose density gradient centrifugation (P. Pupillo and G. Giuliani
Picccari, fur. J. Biochem., 51 (1975) 475-482) experiments.
