The encoded protein is composed of two regions. Its COOH-terminal region is catalytic region and homologous to the enzymes from other eukaryotes; and its NH 2-terminal region is common and special region only in plant. A truncated fragment of mF2KP covering integrated catalytic region was expressed in Escherichia coli. The fusion protein had the activities of fructose-6-phosphate, 2-kinase as well as fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase. Northern blot showed that the transcript level of mF2KP in seedlings initiated from strong-vigor seeds is lower than that from weak-vigor seeds.展开更多

Single crystals of chicken liver bisphophatase domain suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by the hanging drop vapor diffusion method. The crystals belong to tetragonal space group P41212 or P43213 with two molecules per asymmetric unit. The determined cell dimensions are: a=b= 10.02 nm, c= 13.98 nm, α=β=г=90°. EHffraction data were collected on Weissenberg camera with synchrotron radiation at 0.32nm resolution.展开更多
