Abstract
The plastid isozyme of phosphofructokinase from developing castor oil seeds is stimulated by low concentrations of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate when assayed at pH 7.0. The stimulation involves a shift in fructose 6-phosphate kinetics from sigmoidal to near hyperbolic. The plastid isozyme is unaffected by fructose 2,6-bisphosphate when assayed at pH 8.0, and the cytosolic isozyme is unaffected at either pH 7.0 or 8.0. There is no interaction between fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and the other regulators of the Ricinus phosphofructokinases; phosphoenolpyruvate, 2-phosphoglycerate, 3-phosphoglycerate and inorganic phosphate.
