Phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGLP) dephosphorylates 2-phosphoglycolate to glycolate that can be further metabolized to glyoxylate by glycolate oxidase (GOX) via an oxidative reaction that uses O and releases HO. The oxidation of o-dianisidine by HO catalyzed by a peroxidase can be followed in real time by an absorbance change at 440 nm. Based on these reactions, a spectrophotometric method for measuring PGLP activity using a coupled reaction with recombinant Arabidopsis thaliana GOX is described. This protocol has been used successfully with either purified PGLP or total soluble proteins extracted from Arabidopsis rosette leaves.

Article Synopsis
- Phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGPase) is an important enzyme in photosynthetic organisms that helps process phosphoglycolate, a byproduct of Rubisco, potentially affecting the Calvin cycle.
- Three PGPase genes were isolated, cloned, and overexpressed from a specific organism, and their expression was analyzed under varying ammonium levels.
- The study found that all three genes produce active PGPases, with two of them being responsive to nitrogen levels and upregulated when ammonium is low, while PGPase presents mainly in three forms across higher plants and algae.
Comparative Proteomic Identification of Ram Sperm before and after In Vitro Capacitation.

College of Animal Science and Technology, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei 230036, China.
Ram sperm undergo a sequence of physiological and biochemical changes collectively termed as capacitation to perform oocyte fertilization. However, the protein changes induced by capacitation remain in need of further exploration. Thus, the present study investigated the comparative proteomic profiling in ram spermatozoa under non-capacitating (NC) and capacitating (CAP) conditions in vitro using a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry combined with tandem mass tag labeling strategy.

Photorespiration, an essential metabolic component, is a classic example of interactions between the intracellular compartments of a plant cell: the chloroplast, peroxisome, mitochondria, and cytoplasm. The photorespiratory pathway is often modulated by abiotic stress and is considered an adaptive response. Monitoring the patterns of key enzymes located in different subcellular components would be an ideal approach to assessing the modulation of the photorespiratory metabolism under abiotic stress.

To measure the kinetic properties of photorespiratory enzymes, it is necessary to work with purified proteins. Protocols to purify photorespiratory enzymes from leaves of various plant species require several time-consuming steps. It is now possible to produce large quantities of recombinant proteins in bacterial cells.
