    Abstract:
    The structural relationship between isoenzymes I and II of chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate: NADP+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating) EC 1.2.1.13) has been established at the protein level. The complete primary structure of subunits A and B of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase I from Spinacia oleracea has been determined by sequence analysis of the corresponding tryptic peptides, aligned by fragments derived from cyanogen bromide and Staphylococcus proteinase V8 digestions and by partially sequencing each intact subunit. Subunit A has an Mr of 36,225 and consists of 337 amino acid residues, whilst subunit B (Mr 39,355) consists of 368 residues. The amino acid sequence of subunit B, as determined through direct analysis of the protein, is identical to that recently deduced at cDNA level (Brinkmann et al. (1989) Plant Mol. Biol. 13, 81-94). The two subunits share a common portion of amino acid sequence which differs by 66 amino acid residues. Subunit B has an extra C-terminal sequence of 31 amino acid residues. Chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase II was partially characterized by sequencing the N-terminal portion of the intact protein and some of its tryptic peptides. The sequences of all the examined fragments fit precisely that of the corresponding regions of subunit A from glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase I.
