Structural basis for the redox control of plant glutamate cysteine ligase.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 15 Sept 2006

Hothorn Michael, Wachter Andreas, Gromes Roland, Stuwe Tobias, Rausch Thomas, Scheffzek Klaus

Abstract excerpt

Glutathione (GSH) plays a crucial role in plant metabolism and stress response. The rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of GSH is catalyzed by glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) the activity of which is tightly regulated. The regulation of plant GCLs is poorly understood. The crystal structure of...
