Abstract excerpt
Higher plants possess two distinct nuclear-encoded glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI) isoenzymes, a cytosolic enzmye of the Embden-Meyerhof pathway and a chloroplast enzyme essential to storage and mobilization of carbohydrate fixed by the Calvin cycle. We have purified spinach chloroplast GPI t...
