Properties of NADP-malic enzyme from glumes of developing wheat grains
Abstract Properties of partially purified NADP-malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) from glumes of developing wheat grains were examined. The pH optimum for enzyme activity was influenced by malate and shifted from 7.3 to 7.6 when the concentration of malate was increased from 2 to 10 mM.

NADP-malic enzyme functions in plant metabolism as a decarboxylase of malate in the chloroplast or cytosol. It serves as a source of CO2 for photosynthesis in the bundle sheath chloroplasts of C4 plants and in the cytosol of Crassulacean acid metabolism plants, and as a source of NADPH and pyruvate in the cytosol of various tissues.

Evidence for a cytosolic NADP-malic enzyme in tomato
Phytochemistry, 1996Abstract The similarity and cellular location of NADP + -malic enzyme (NADP-ME, EC 1.1.1.40) in developing fruit and other parts of the tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plant were investigated in order to clarify the role of the enzyme in metabolism.

NADP–Malic Enzyme from the C4PlantFlaveria bidentis:Nucleotide Substrate Specificity
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1997NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME, EC 1.1.1.40) was purified to near-homogeneity from leaves of the C4 dicot Flaveria bidentis and shown to possess intrinsic NAD-dependent malic enzyme activity. The NAD-dependent activity is optimal at pH 7.5 and in the presence of Mn2+.

Molecular adaptations of NADP-malic enzyme for its function in C4 photosynthesis in grasses
In C4 grasses of agronomical interest, malate shuttled into the bundle sheath cells is decarboxylated mainly by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-malic enzyme (C4-NADP-ME). The activity of C4-NADP-ME was optimized by natural selection to efficiently deliver CO2 to Rubisco.

The Enzyme Kinetics of the NADP-Malic Enzyme from Tobacco Leaves
Collection of Czechoslovak Chemical Communications, 2007Malic enzyme (L-malate: NADP+ oxidoreductase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating), EC 1.1.1.40, NADP-ME), which was found in chloroplasts, was isolated from tobacco leaves (Nicotiana tabacum L.) almost homogenous. The specific enzyme activity was 0.95 μmol min-1 mg-1. The enzyme pH optimum was found between pH 7.1 and 7.4.
