Pyridine nucleotides (NAD(P)(H)) are electron carriers that are the driving forces in various metabolic pathways. Phosphorylation of NAD(H) to NADP(H) is performed by the enzyme NAD kinase (NADK). Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 harbors two genes (sll1415 and slr0400) that encode proteins with NADK homology. When genetic mutants for sll1415 and slr0400 (Delta 1415 and Delta 0400, respectively) were cultured under photoheterotrophic growth conditions only the Delta 1415 cells showed a growth defect. In wild-type cells, the sll1415 transcript accumulated after the cells were transferred to photoheterotrophic conditions. Furthermore, NAD(P)(H) measurements demonstrated that a dynamic metabolic conversion was implemented during the adaptation from photoautotrophic to photoheterotrophic conditions. Electron microscopy observation and biochemistry quantification demonstrated the accumulation of glycogen in the Delta 1415 cells under photoheterotrophic conditions at 96 h. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) demonstrated the accumulation of mRNAs that encoded glycogen biosynthesis-related enzymes in photoheterotrophic Delta 1415 cells. At 96 h, enzyme activity measurement in the photoheterotrophic Delta 1415 cells demonstrated that the activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase were decreased, but the activities of glucose dehydrogenase were increased. Furthermore, metabolomics analysis demonstrated that the Delta 1415 cells showed increased glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate content at 96 h. Therefore, sll1415 has a significant function in the oxidative pentose phosphate (OPP) pathway for catabolism of glucose under photoheterotrophic conditions. Additionally, it is presumed that the slr0400 had a different role in glucose catabolism during growth. These results suggest that the two Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 NADKs (Sll1415 and Slr0400) have distinct functions in photoheterotrophic cyanobacterial metabolism.
