AbstractDuring the past two decades, glucosinolate (GLS) metabolic pathways have been under extensive studies because of the importance of the specialized metabolites in plant defense against herbivores and pathogens. The studies have led to a nearly complete characterization of biosynthetic genes in the reference plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Before methionine incorporation into the core structure of aliphatic GLS, it undergoes chain-elongation through an iterative three-step process recruited from leucine biosynthesis. Although enzymes catalyzing each step of the reaction have been characterized, the regulatory mode is largely unknown. In this study, using three independent approaches, yeast two-hybrid (Y2H), coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC), we uncovered the presence of protein complexes consisting of isopropylmalate isomerase (IPMI) and isopropylmalate dehydrogenase (IPMDH). In addition, simultaneous decreases in both IPMI and IPMDH activities in a leuc:ipmdh1 double mutants resulted in aggregated changes of GLS profiles compared to either leuc or ipmdh1 single mutants. Although the biological importance of the formation of IPMI and IPMDH protein complexes has not been documented in any organisms, these complexes may represent a new regulatory mechanism of substrate channeling in GLS and/or leucine biosynthesis. Since genes encoding the two enzymes are widely distributed in eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes, such complexes may have universal significance in the regulation of leucine biosynthesis.

The addition of urea to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gels has allowed the identification and characterization of the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) D' protein and has also improved resolution of the E, F, and G snRNP core proteins. In standard SDS-polyacrylamide gels, the D' and D snRNP core proteins comigrate at approximately 16 kilodaltons. The addition of urea to the separating gel caused the D' protein to shift to a slower electrophoretic mobility that is distinct from that of the D protein. The shift to a slower electrophoretic mobility in the presence of urea suggests that the D' protein has extensive secondary structure that is not totally disrupted by SDS alone. Both N-terminal sequencing and partial peptide maps indicate that the D and D' proteins are distinct gene products, and the sequence data have identified the faster moving of the two proteins as the previously cloned D protein (L. A. Rokeach, J. A. Haselby, and S. O. Hoch, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:4832-4836, 1988). In the cytoplasm, the D protein is found primarily in the small-nuclear-RNA-free 6S protein complexes, while the D' protein is found primarily in the 20S protein complexes. Like the D protein, the D' protein is an autoantigen in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and is recognized by some of the Sm class of autoimmune antisera.
