Initially linked to photosynthesis, regulation by change in the redox state of thiol groups (S-S

2SH) is now known to occur throughout biology. Thus, in addition to serving important structural and catalytic functions, it is recognized that, in many cases, disulphide bonds can be broken and reformed for regulation. Several systems, each linking a hydrogen donor to an intermediary disulphide protein, act to effect changes that alter the activity of target proteins by change in the thiol redox state. Pertinent to the present discussion is the chloroplast ferredoxin/thioredoxin system, comprised of photoreduced ferredoxin, a thioredoxin, and the enzyme ferredoxin-thioredoxin reductase, that occur in the stroma. In this system, thioredoxin links the activity of enzymes to light: those enzymes functional in biosynthesis are reductively activated by light via thioredoxin (S-S
2SH), whereas counterparts acting in degradation are deactivated under illumination conditions and are oxidatively activated in the dark (2SH
S-S). Recent research has uncovered a new paradigm in which an immunophilin, FKBP13, and potentially other enzymes of the chloroplast thylakoid lumen are oxidatively activated in the light (2SH
S-S). The present review provides a perspective on this recent work. Key words: Chloroplast thylakoid lumen, immunophilin, redox regulation, thiol-disulphide exchange, thioredoxin
| Introduction |
|---|
Recent studies have opened a new area of photosynthesis research in extending redox regulation to an enzyme of the chloroplast thylakoid lumen. The lumenal immunophilin FKBP13, earlier shown to be essential in the formation of a functional Rieske complex for the photosynthetic transport of electrons, lost its peptidyl-prolyl-cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) enzymatic activity on reduction (or mutagenesis) of its two disulphide (S-S) groups, one located at the carboxyl and the other at the amino terminus as demonstrated by X-ray structural analysis. Both disulphides were reduced by thioredoxin (Trx), a regulatory protein long known to link light to the activity of enzymes of the chloroplast stroma. The results suggest a previously unrecognized paradigm for redox regulation in photosynthesis, in which activation by light is achieved in concert with oxygen evolution by the oxidation of sulphydryl groups (conversion of SH to S-S). Such a mechanism, occurring in the thylakoid lumen, is in striking contrast to regulation in the stroma, where reduction of disulphides of biosynthetic enzymes targeted by Trx (S-S converted to SH) leads to an increase in activity in the light. Specifics relevant to these new findings are summarized below.
| Background on thioredoxins |
|---|
Trxs are 12 kDa proteins with a characteristic structural motiffour alpha helixes surrounding a beta sheet composed of five strandscommon to most, if not all, protein disulphide (S-S) oxidoreductase family members (for recent reviews on plant Trxs see Schürmann and Jacquot, 2000
|
Trxs contain a conserved redox active site with the sequence WC(G/P)PC. In plants, the disulphide bond formed between the two cysteines can be reduced either by (i) ferredoxin and the iron-sulphur/disulphide enzyme, ferredoxin-thioredoxin reductase (FTR), in chloroplasts, and (ii) NADPH via a flavin enzyme, NADP-thioredoxin reductase (NTR), in other organelles. By reducing disulphide groups, Trxs, in turn, function as electron (hydrogen) donors for the reduction of either chemical substrates or, for what seems to be a broader role, the regulation of enzymes.

By contrast, enzymes of carbohydrate degradation are active in the disulphide (S-S) state and are deactivated on reduction (SH state). Chloroplast Trxs function in regulating the Calvin cycle, and, as found in recent studies discussed below, a spectrum of other processes. In this regulatory network, now a part of standard biology and biochemistry texts, Trx acts as an eye, informing enzymes that the light is off (S-S state) or on (SH state) (Fig. 2). In a complementary capacity, recent evidence indicates that Trx also links enzyme activity to the level of oxidants generated under stress conditions via a mechanism designated oxidative regulation (Balmer et al., 2003
).

| Stromal thioredoxin targets |

Since the discovery of a role for Trx in the activation of fructose-1,6 bisphosphatase (Buchanan, 1980
The development of the affinity chromatography procedure with mutated Trx, in combination with proteomics, has enabled the identification of numerous new Trx-linked proteins in chloroplasts. The affinity procedure takes advantage of the mechanism by which Trx reduces a specific regulatory disulphide bond (Brandes et al., 1996
; Verdoucq et al., 1999
; Balmer and Schürmann, 2001
; Motohashi et al., 2001
; Goyer et al., 2002
). The mechanism requires the formation of a transient heterodisulphide bond between Trx and the interacting enzyme prior to complete reduction of the targeted disulphide. Mutation of one of the two cysteines of the Trx active site (the one buried in the molecule) stabilizes the normally transient heterodisulphide, thereby covalently linking the target protein to Trx via a bond that can be cleaved by DTT. This property was used earlier to generate covalent complexes between Trx f and both phosphoribulokinase and fructose bisphosphatase (Brandes et al., 1996
; Balmer and Schürmann, 2001
). Further experiments in which the buried Cys of the active site of extraplastidic Trx h was mutated to serine led to the identification of a new type of peroxidase as a target protein in yeast two-hybrid experiments (Verdoucq et al., 1999
). In a subsequent development, mutated Trx m was immobilized on a resin and used in conjunction with proteomics to screen chloroplast stroma for potential target proteins (Motohashi et al., 2001
). This approach led to the identification of eight Trx targets: five known (Rubisco activase, sedoheptulose bisphosphatase, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glutamine synthetase, and 2-Cys peroxiredoxin) and three new (peroxiredoxin-Q, cyclophilin CYP 20-3, and Rubisco small subunit). A similar experiment with mutated Trx h led to the identification of a peroxiredoxin from Chlamydomonas (Goyer et al., 2002
).
Further application of the affinity column technique led to the identification of additional new soluble Trx targets in chloroplasts (Balmer et al., 2003
). This approach confirmed the identity of nine out of 16 known soluble Trx-regulated enzymes and led to more than a doubling in the number of potential Trx-interacting proteins. Fifteen potential new targets functional in 10 chloroplast processes not known to be regulated by Trx (Fig. 3) were identified. Most of the new targets contain conserved cysteines and are members of processes not previously known to be redox regulated. It should be noted that, while the mutant affinity column approach has provided new insight in the field, one of its shortcomings is the loss of specificity observed in vitro, i.e. it seems not to matter which chloroplast Trx (f or m) is bound to the column matrix in isolating potential targets (Balmer et al., 2003
). Nonetheless, the method has been successfully applied to identify 50 potential new targets in plant mitochondria (Balmer et al., 2004
). Additional evidence that these mitochondrial proteins were authentic targets was provided by the finding that each is reduced specifically by Trx. Further, the column technique has been used to uncover new target proteins in wheat starchy endosperm (Wong et al., 2003
, 2004
), barley seeds (Maeda et al., 2004
) and Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings (Marchand et al., 2004
; Yamazaki et al., 2004
). At present, approximately 180 established and potential Trx targets have been identified in land plants (Buchanan and Balmer, 2005
). The procedure has also been applied to a cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (Lindahl and Florencio, 2004
) and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Lemaire et al., 2004
), leading to the identification of additional potential new targets. This same type of mutagenesis technique was also recently successfully applied to the identification of targets of the chloroplast drought-induced stress protein, CDSP32 (Rey et al., 2005
).

| Immunophilins and their function in animals |
|---|
Immunophilins were discovered as cellular receptors for immunosuppressive drugs, including cyclosporin A and FK506, that are used clinically to prevent graft rejection. Recent studies have revealed that, among other processes, these proteins function at the crossroads of protein folding and trafficking, and signal transduction in animals. Earlier work with animal systems demonstrated that, cyclosporin A (a cyclic decapeptide) and FK506 (a macrocyclic lactone) suppress the immune response by blocking the activation of T lymphocytes (Kunz and Hall, 1993
During the past decade, a growing number of immunophilins have been characterized from mammals as well as a variety of other organisms, ranging from bacteria and yeast to plants (reviewed in Rosen and Schreiber, 1992
; Fruman et al., 1994
; Luan, 1998
). The high level of conservation and ubiquitous distribution of the members of this family among divergent organisms, together with their presence in almost all subcellular compartments, attests to a broad role in fundamental processes. The finding of PPIase activity associated with immunophilins suggested that they facilitate protein folding. Evidence for this role is accumulating in animal systems (Luan, 1998
). For example, cyclosporin A, a specific inhibitor of the PPIase activity of CYPs, delayed collagen triple helix assembly in chick embryo fibroblasts (Steimann et al., 1991
). Further, a CYP member has been shown to promote protein folding in mitochondria (Matouschek et al., 1995
) and in vitro studies with carbonic anhydrase indicated that CYPs can act as chaperones (Freskgard et al., 1992
; Freeman et al., 1996
). However, it has not been possible to separate the chaperone and PPIase roles in vivo, making it difficult to conclude if immunophilins are rotamase-dependent or independent chaperones.
Several studies suggest that immunophilins play a role in protein trafficking. Brown et al. (2001)
showed that CYPA is required for vacuole targeting of fructose bisphosphatase in yeast. In another study with fruit flies, a genetic analysis showed that a CYP homologue, NinaA, is required for transit of rhodopsin isoforms from the ER (Stamnes et al., 1991
). Again, it is not known if foldase or rotamase activity (or both) are essential for these trafficking processes.
Other intriguing findings suggest that each immunophilin interacts specifically with a given protein. Such a function may or may not be related to protein folding. Examples of this specificity include the finding that FKBP12 associated with the Ca2+-releasing ryanodine receptor in striated muscle cells and modified its activity (Jayaraman et al., 1992
; Brillantes et al., 1994
). Mutant mice devoid of a functional FKBP12 developed a cardiac defect (Shou et al., 1998
). In another study, CYP40, was shown to interact with HSP90 in the steroid hormone receptor complex (Kieffer et al., 1993
). Regulation of steroid hormone signal transduction by these high molecular weight immunophilins has now been established (reviewed in Pratt, 1998
). CYPA and Ess1 (another PPIase) associated with each other and with the chromatin remodelling complex and general transcriptional machinery (Wu et al., 2000
). Such an interaction regulates gene silencing (Arevalo-Rodriguez et al., 2000
). Although individual immunophilins act in different processes, they all seem to take part in the regulation of super-molecular complexes. It is not known how immunophilins facilitate assembly or maintain these complexes.
| Immunophilins and their function in plants |
|---|
In work initiated about 10 years ago, a cyclosporin A-/FK506-sensitive process was identified in plants (fava bean) (Luan et al., 1993
A recent analysis of the Arabidopsis genome database revealed at least 52 genes encoding putative immunophilins (He et al., 2004
). This is by far the largest immunophilin family found in organisms whose genomes have been sequenced, for example, 12 members have been found in yeast and 23 in C. elegans and Drosophila. Investigators have begun to address the function of the plant immunophilins. In one case, in which an Arabidopsis mutant had an abnormal developmental pattern, the responsible gene encoded an FKBP-like protein (Vittorioso et al., 1998
). Another immunophilin, a CYP40-like protein, was shown to be necessary for normal leaf development (Berardini et al., 2001
). Finally, in yet another study a CYP was found to interact with VirD2, an endonuclease acting in T-DNA transfer from Agrobacterium to host plant cells (Deng et al., 1998
). The evidence suggests that, as in animals, individual members of the immunophilin family play different roles in plants.
Among the 52 immunophilins in Arabidopsis, about 20 are predicted to be in chloroplasts (He et al., 2004
). The first chloroplast FKBP identified, pFKBP13, was purified from fava bean plants (Luan et al., 1994a
). This protein was subsequently characterized biochemically and genetically in Arabidopsis (Gupta et al., 2002b
). Arabidopsis FKBP13 (AtFKBP13) is localized in the thylakoid lumen where it interacts with the Rieske protein, an ironsulphur protein in the cytochrome b6f complex that is part of the photosynthetic electron transport chain (Cramer et al., 1997
). Silencing the AtFKBP13 gene in Arabidopsis altered the accumulation of the Rieske protein, suggesting that AtFKBP13 regulates import or assembly of the Rieske protein (Gupta et al., 2002b
). A second protein found to be targeted by AtFKBP13 is novel and bears low, but recognizable homology to cytochrome c6an electron carrier known to substitute for the copper protein, plastocyanin, in cyanobacteria and algae grown under copper-deficient conditions (Merchant and Dreyfuss, 1998
). A cytochrome c6-like protein had not previously been found in land plants, which are unable to survive in copper-deficient environments. As a result, it was generally believed that land plants do not have a component to replace plastocyanin (Merchant and Dreyfuss, 1998
). Extensive biochemical and genetic analyses prompted a change in this view in demonstrating that Arabidopsis contained a cytochrome c6 that could assist plastocyanin in electron transport (Gupta et al., 2002a
).
| Summary of immunophilin function |
|---|
Studies in both animal and plant systems show that immunophilins have diverse functions linked to activity as protein foldases, chaperones, and scaffolding facilitators or possible unknown catalytic capabilities. Immunophilins differ from other types of protein foldases and molecular chaperones in that each appears to have its own function and cellular target. This property is consistent with the finding that the sequence and structure of immunophilins are rather divergent, although a drug-binding core is conserved in all cases, including members of the family in plants. The specific sequence motif in each immunophilin may provide the structural basis for interacting with a given target. Another general rule for function is an association with super-molecular complexes in animals as well as plants. It is possible that each immunophilin plays a role in the biogenesis and/or maintenance of these complexes.
| Regulation of immunophilins |
|---|
Since their discovery in the early 1990s, one of the unanswered questions has been whether immunophilins are post-translationally regulated. Recent work with chloroplasts has provided an affirmative answer to this question. Initially, a resident of the stroma, AtCYP20-3 (ROC4) was shown to be activated post-translationally by chloroplast thioredoxin m following oxidation of its thiol groups with CuCl2 (Motohashi et al., 2003
|
The experiments revealed that Trxs from either chloroplasts (m-type) or E. coli specifically reduced both FKBP13 disulphides in concert with the loss of PPIase activity. That evidence, together with similar results obtained with derivatives harbouring Cys
Ser mutations, suggests that lumenal AtFKPB13 resembles a stromal CYP counterpart, AtCYP20-3, in undergoing thiol redox modulation (Motohashi et al., 2001
![]() | (5) |
![]() | (6) |
Figure 5 summarizes the current view of the mechanism by which lumenal FKBP13 is regulated relative to stromal enzymes (Gopalan et al., 2004
). It is noted that details of the mechanism of oxidation are not clear, i.e. whether an intermediary protein, designated redox protein, facilitates the oxidative activation of the target enzyme. It is also not known whether oxidative activation is diurnal or whether it occurs sporadically, for example, following import of reduced FKPB13 into the lumen. The elucidation of the details of the activation mechanism, including the extent of dependency of the activation mechanism on light, is a future goal in this work.
|
A final question raised by recent work relates to the regulation of immunophilins via thiol/disulphide exchange compared with those lacking a disulphide group. It seems possible that the situation may resemble that established for chloroplast enzymes (that are regulated by thioredoxin via a redox active disulphide, such as fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase) and cytosolic counterparts (that lack a disulphide and are regulated by other mechanisms) (Schürmann and Jacquot, 2000
| Concluding remarks |
|---|
Recent findings have extended the capacity for redox regulation, long known for the chloroplast stroma, to the immunophilin AtFKBP13, a resident of the thylakoid lumen. The results suggest that the regulatory response of an enzyme to redox change depends not only on its function, but also on its location within the cell. Further, while specifics are not known, the above experiments raise the possibility that the observed oxidative activation mechanism reflects a general pattern of regulation operative in the lumen. According to this view, the precursor form of AtFKBP13 and perhaps other redox-regulated proteins bound for the lumen, such as polyphenol oxidase and violaxanthin de-epoxidase, are photoreduced by thioredoxin m via photosystem I on entering and traversing the stroma. Once imported into the lumen, the reduced, inactive form of the enzyme is converted to the active form by oxidation (Fig. 6). Such a mode of activation, in which an enzyme of the lumen is rendered active when oxidized, a reaction facilitated by oxygen produced in the light, contrasts with the mechanism functional in the stroma. The relation of electron transfer proteins resident in the lumen (Friso et al., 2004
