Serine-451 phosphorylation of bacterial-type phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase by a calcium-dependent protein kinase links calcium signaling with anaplerotic pathway control in developing castor oil seeds

Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (PEPC) is a tightly controlled enzyme situated at a pivotal branchpoint of plant C-metabolism. Two physically and kinetically distinct oligomeric classes of PEPC exist in the endosperm of developing castor oil seeds (COS). Class-1 PEPC is a typical homotetramer...
