Abstract:
:In pea leaves, much of the metabolism of imported asparagine is by transamination. This activity was previously shown to be localized in the peroxisomes, suggesting a possible connection between asparagine and photorespiratory nitrogen metabolism. This was investigated by examination of the transfer of (15)N from the amino group of asparagine, supplied via the transpiration stream, in fully expanded pea leaves. Label was transferred to aspartate, glutamate, alanine, glycine, serine, ammonia, and glutamine (amide group). Under low oxygen (1.8%), or in the presence of alpha-hydroxy-2-pyridine methanesulfonic acid (an inhibitor of glycolate oxidase, a step in the photorespiratory formation of glyoxylate), there was a substantial (60-80%) decrease in transfer of label to glycine, serine, ammonia, and glutamine. Addition of isonicotinyl hydrazide (an inhibitor of formation of serine from glycine) caused a 70% decrease in transfer of asparagine amino nitrogen to serine, ammonia, and glutamine, while a 4-fold increase in labeling of glycine was observed. The results demonstrate the involvement of asparagine in photorespiration, and show that photorespiratory nitrogen metabolism is not a closed cyclic process.
