Regulation of plant redox metabolic function based on the atomic structure of proteins

Formation of electron transfer complexes of ferredoxin and ferredoxin-dependent redox enzymes involved in carbon, nitrogen and sulfur assimilation has been studied through biochemical and structural biological analyses. Knock-out and knock. down plants of the corresponding enzymes and ferredoxin were also produced to study their functions at in vivo level. Combined results give a new insight into the electron partitioning via the molecular machineries of ferredoxin and related enzymes in photosynthesis.
