Trx regulates plastid phosphoribulokinase (PRK) and NADP–glyceraldehyde-3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP–GAPD) by noncovalent associations with the nuclear‐encoded chloroplast protein CP12 (an ≈8.5‐kDa protein)

Under ‘‘dark conditions,” the [(A4-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) 2•(phosphoribulokinase)2•(CP12)4] is formed by CP12 called supramolecular complex.

Under ‘‘light conditions,’’ reduced thioredoxin cleaves the disulfide bonds of CP12 and phosphoribulokinase. 

The reduction of phosphoribulokinase and CP12 separates the

components of the ternary complex releasing the active phosphoribulokinase and the active A4B4-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Stromal pH and Mg2+ concentration complement the ferredoxin– thioredoxin system and are important for the activation and maximum catalysis of enzymes such as Rubisco, fructose‐1,6‐ bisphosphatase, sedoheptulose‐1,7‐bisphosphatase, and PRK.
