Vliv stresu na NADP-dependentní enzymy ve vyšších rostlinách. / The influence of stress on NADP-dependent enzymes in higher plants.

Biotic stress in the form of viral infection, as well as abiotic salt stress, cause leaves injuries, stomata closure and decreased rate of photosynthesis. These factors lead to the limitation of plant growth and to reduced amount of coenzyme NADPH. However NADPH is an important coenzyme for many metabolic pathways such as synthesis of fatty acids, amino acids and secondary metabolites involved in stress responses. NADPH is also a coenzyme for key enzymes of antioxidant system and for many regulatory enzymes. NADP-dependent enzymes are alternative source of NADPH in plants under stress conditions. In this work, activities of four NADP-dependent enzymes: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH, EC 1.1.1.49), NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-ICDH, EC 1.1.1.42), NADP-malic enzyme (decarboxylating) (NADP-ME, EC 1.1.1.40) and Shikimate dehydrogenase (SDH, EC 1.1.1.25) were studied. Activities of all these enzymes but SDH increased in leaves of tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.) infected by PVYNTN , The most sensitive enzymes to viral infection were NADP-ICDH and NADP-ME, whose activity was increased in comparison with control plants 3-fold and 2,4-fold, respectively. Changes in activity of studied enzymes were also determined in plants exposed to viral infection in combination with heat-shock...
