In higher plants ferredoxin (Fd):NADP+ oxidoreductase
(FNR) and Fd are each distributed in photosynthetic and
non-photosynthetic organs as distinct isoproteins. We have cloned cDNAs
for leaf FNR (L-FNR I and L-FNR II) and root FNR (R-FNR) from maize
(Zea mays L.), and produced recombinant L-FNR I and
R-FNR to study their enzymatic functions through kinetic and Fd-binding
analyses. The Km value obtained by assay for
a diaphorase activity indicated that R-FNR had a 10-fold higher
affinity for NADPH than L-FNR I. When we assayed for NADPH-cytochrome
c reductase activity using maize photosynthetic Fd (Fd
I) and non-photosynthetic Fd (Fd III), the R-FNR showed a marked
difference in affinity between these two Fd isoproteins; the
Km for Fd III was 3.0 µM and
that for Fd I was 29 µM. Consistent with this, the
dissociation constant for the R-FNR:Fd III complex was 10-fold smaller
than that of the R-FNR:Fd I complex. This differential binding capacity
was confirmed by an affinity chromatography of R-FNR on Fd-sepharose with stronger binding to Fd III. L-FNR I showed no such differential interaction with Fd I and Fd III. These data demonstrated that R-FNR
has the ability to discriminate between these two types of Fds. We
propose that the stronger interaction of R-FNR with Fd III is crucial
for an efficient electron flux of NADPH-FNR-Fd cascade, thus supporting
Fd-dependent metabolism in non-photosynthetic organs.
