Other claims from this paper (16)
- Observation sdp6 mutants could break down triacylglycerol after germination.
- Observation sdp6 mutants failed to accumulate soluble sugars after germination.
- Mechanism sdp6 mutant results suggest a gluconeogenesis defect.
- Observation SDP6 encodes mitochondrial FAD-GPDH.
- Observation Germinated sdp6 seeds were severely impaired in glycerol metabolism to carbon dioxide.
- Observation Germinated sdp6 seeds accumulated high G3P levels.
- Mechanism The data suggest SDP6 is essential for glycerol catabolism.
- Intervention effect G3P competitively inhibited phosphoglucose isomerase activity in vitro.
- Observation Feeding labeled glucose to sdp6 seedlings showed a sixfold reduction in label transfer to the opposing sucrose hexosyl moiety.
- Observation Feeding labeled fructose to sdp6 seedlings showed a sixfold reduction in label transfer to the opposing sucrose hexosyl moiety.
- Mechanism Phosphoglucose isomerase is likely inhibited in vivo in sdp6 seedlings.
- Mechanism A gluconeogenesis block at hexose phosphate isomerization could explain arrested sdp6 seedling growth.
- Intervention effect Glucose rescues the arrested sdp6 seedling growth phenotype.
- Intervention effect Fructose does not rescue the arrested sdp6 seedling growth phenotype.
- Observation NAD(+) and NADH measurements suggest altered NAD(+)/NADH homeostasis in sdp6 seedlings.
- Mechanism The homeostasis result supports the hypothesis that SDP6 cooperates with GPDHC1 in a mitochondrial G3P shuttle.
