This study characterizes the structural and functional properties of CrRPE1, an enzyme in the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, revealing its catalytic behavior and regulatory mechanisms.

Structural snapshots of nitrosoglutathione binding and reactivity underlying S-nitrosylation of photosynthetic GAPDH

This study investigates how GSNO induces S-nitrosylation of CrGAPA, revealing structural and mechanistic insights into its redox specificity and enzyme inactivation.

Unravelling the regulation pathway of photosynthetic AB-GAPDH

This paper elucidates the structural and regulatory mechanism of AB-GAPDH in land plants, showing how oxidation and cofactor substitution lead to oligomerization and enzyme inactivation.

Structural and functional insights into nitrosoglutathione reductase from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

The paper characterizes CrGSNOR1 from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, revealing its strict specificity for GSNO and NADH, conserved 3D structure, and resistance to thiol-based redox modifications.

Acidic monosaccharides become incorporated into calcite single crystals

This study shows acidic monosaccharides incorporate into calcite crystals, altering their structure and inducing anisotropic lattice distortions.

Arabidopsis and Chlamydomonas phosphoribulokinase crystal structures complete the redox structural proteome of the Calvin-Benson cycle

This paper determines the crystal structures of phosphoribulokinase (PRK) from Arabidopsis and Chlamydomonas, revealing structural features related to TRX regulation in the Calvin-Benson cycle.

Glutathionylation primes soluble GAPDH for late collapse into insoluble aggregates

This study shows that glutathionylation of AtGAPC1 in Arabidopsis primes it for aggregation, leading to insoluble, inactive protein chains.
