The regulation and catalytic mechanism of the NADP-malic enzyme from tobacco leaves [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2009 The non-photosynthetic NADP-malic enzyme EC 1.1.1.40 (NADP-ME), which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of L-malate and NADP+ to produce pyruvate and NADPH, respectively, and which could be involved in plant defense responses, was isolated from ...

Adjustment of light-responsive NADP dynamics in chloroplasts by stromal pH
Nature Communications, 2023 Cyclic electron transfer (CET) predominates when NADP+ is at basal levels, early in photosynthetic induction; however, the mechanism underlying the subsequent supply of NADP+ to fully drive steady-state linear electron transfer remains unclear.

NADP-Dependent Malic Enzyme 1 Participates in the Abscisic Acid Response in Arabidopsis thaliana
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Arabidopsis thaliana possesses three cytosolic (NADP-ME1-3) and one plastidic (NADP-ME4) NADP-dependent malic enzymes. NADP-ME2 and -ME4 show constitutive expression, in contrast to NADP-ME1 and -ME3, which are restricted to particular tissues.

Determinants of nucleotide-binding selectivity of malic enzyme. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Malic enzymes have high cofactor selectivity. An isoform-specific distribution of residues 314, 346, 347 and 362 implies that they may play key roles in determining the cofactor specificity. Currently, Glu314, Ser346, Lys347 and Lys362 in human c-NADP-ME

Inter-Organelle NAD Metabolism Underpinning Light Responsive NADP Dynamics in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Upon illumination, photosystem I in chloroplasts catalyzes light-driven electron transport from plastocyanin to ferredoxin, followed by the reduction of NADP+ to NADPH by ferredoxin:NADP+ reductase for CO2 fixation.

Identification and evolution of C4 photosynthetic pathway genes in plants
BMC Plant Biology, 2020 Background NADP-malic enzyme (NAPD-ME), and pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) are important enzymes that participate in C4 photosynthesis. However, the evolutionary history and forces driving evolution of these genes in C4 plants are not completely
