Glycine decarboxylase GDC multienzyme complex, present in large concentrations in the matrix of plant mitochondria, comprises four proteins, named 

H-protein (a lipoamide-containing polypeptide), 

P-protein (a 200 kDa, homodimer, pyridoxal phosphate-containing protein),

T-protein (a folate-dependent protein), and 

L-protein (a flavin adenine nucleotide–containing protein

The C4 plants, which typically grow at high light intensity and high temperatures, have several important characteristics: high photosynthetic rates, high growth rates, low photorespiration rates, low rates of water loss, and a specialized leaf structure

C4 leaf has two distinct chloroplast-containing cell types: mesophyll and bundle sheath (or Kranz, German for “wreath”) cells

Operation of the C4 cycle requires the cooperative effort of both cell types. No mesophyll cell of a C4 plant is more than two or three cells away from the nearest bundle sheath cell.
