Abstract:
:In order to investigate the role of acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) in the regulation of fatty-acid biosynthesis in chloroplasts, the activities and relative amounts of the enzyme have been measured in the tissue of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) leaves undergoing development and cellular differentiation. The total activity in the first leaves of 5- to 7-d-old plants was similar but decreased to less than half in 9-d-old plants. The activity of ACC in the cells of the first leaf of 7-d-old plants doubled when cell age increased from 24 to 48 h, remained relatively constant for a further 24 h and then declined. The amount of ACC in cells increased 15-fold during the first 36 h of cell enlargement. Cells more than 36 h old contained about two-thirds the maximum amount of ACC found in younger cells. The most rapid phase of fatty-acyl accumulation in lipids was in cells aged between 60 and 84 h. Tenfold changes in the activity of ACC were observed when the assay conditions with respect to ATP, ADP, Mg(2+) and pH were changed to correspond to the physiological conditions in chloroplasts during light/dark transitions. This observation and the magnitude of the changes in the optimum activity and amount of ACC in leaf cells undergoing development are consistent with a role for ACC in the regulation of the flow of carbon from acetyl CoA to fatty acids in chloroplasts.
