Descriptions

The chloroplastic NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase (NADP-MDH) catalyzes the reduction of oxaloacetate into L-malate. The enzyme exhibits extensions at both the N- and C-termini. The N-terminal disulfide motif is inserted in a cleft between the two subunits of the dimer, thereby locking the domains in each subunit. The C-terminal extension (C-terminal inhibitory peptide) also contains a regulatory disulfide bridge. The C-terminal disulfide keeps the C-terminal residues tight to the enzyme surface and blocks access to the active site. Reduction of the N-terminal disulfide may release the stopper between the domains and give the enzyme the flexibility. Simultaneous reduction of the C-terminal disulfide may free the C-terminal residues from binding to the enzyme and make the active site accessible.
