Light regulates the stability of the ternary complex through the ferredoxin–thioredoxin system Regulation of chloroplast phosphoribulokinase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Chloroplasts contain two isoforms of glyceraldehyde3-phosphate dehydrogenases, named A4 and A2B2. Which of the following statement about isoform of glyceraldehyde3-phosphate dehydrogenases is False?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. The A4 isoform is a catalytically active tetramer
  2. The A and B polypeptides of the A2B2 isoform are similar except that a C-terminal extension of the subunit B holds two cysteines able to form a disulfide bridge
  3. The A2B2 glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase can form the A8B8 oligomer can form in the light
  4. “dark conditions” the interaction of oxidized phosphoribulokinase with the A4-glyceraldehyde3-phosphate dehydrogenase and oxidized CP12 stabilizes the complex

ADH has two actions, one on the kidney and the other on vascular smooth muscle, these actions are mediated by different receptors, different intracellular mechanisms, and different secondary messengers.
a. The major action of ADH is to increase the water permeability of principal cells in the late distal tubule and collecting duct.
b. The receptor for ADH on the principal cells is a V2 receptor, which is coupled to adenylyl cyclase via a Gs protein. 
c. The second messenger is cAMP, via phosphorylation steps, directs the insertion of water channels, aquaporin 2 (AQP2), in luminal membranes.
d. The receptor for ADH on the principal cells is a V1 receptor, which is coupled to phospholipase C via Gq protein.
