General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism UDP-sulfoquinovose synthase, SQD1, is important in sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol, SQDG, biosynthesis together with the SQDG synthase, SQD2, mechanism for SQDG biosynthesis, overview. Sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol is the only sulfur-containing anionic glycerolipid, a relatively minor relatively minor, and is the least prevalent component of photosynthetic membrane lipids. The function of SQDG under phosphate-limited growth conditions is highly correlated with the regulation of other plant glycerolipid biosyntheses Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

additional information ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase, FdGOGAT, co-purifies with the native SQD1 from chloroplast stroma and is tightly associated with the enzyme. FdGOGAT is a flavincontaining protein that can reversibly bind sulfite, suggesting that the protein efficiently delivers sulfite to the SQD1 active site Spinacia oleracea
additional information the enzyme forms a complex with ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase, FdGOGAT, tentative modeling of SQDG1 bound to FdGOGAT from Synechococcus sp. PCC 6803, the predicted SQD1 sulfite channel is directed at the FMN cofactor in the FdGOGAT FMN-binding domain. FdGOGAT interaction with SQD1 channels sulfite directly to SQD1 and is an efficient way to overcome this problem Arabidopsis thaliana
physiological function UDP-sulfoquinovose synthase, SqdB, is crucial for sulfolipid synthesis in the purple bacterium Cereibacter sphaeroides
