A cDNA of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii encoding a plastidial homogentisate prenyltransferase was identified. Functional expression studies in Escherichia coli revealed that the enzyme possessed properties similar to the prenyltransferase of Arabidopsis thaliana encoded by At3g11950 but different from the phytyltransferases of A. thaliana and Synechocystis. Unlike the phytyltransferases, the C. reinhardtii and the respective A. thaliana enzyme showed highest activities with solanesyl diphosphate, but were hardly active with phytyl diphosphate. Hence, these data provide evidence that the latter represent homogentisate solanesyltransferases involved in plastoquinone-9 biosynthesis. Overexpression of At3g11950 in A. thaliana, however, suggests that the solanesyltransferase can affect tocopherol biosynthesis as well. << Less

Catalytic reactions of the homogentisate prenyl transferase involved in plastoquinone-9 biosynthesis.
Sadre R., Frentzen M., Saeed M., Hawkes T.
Homogentisate solanesyl transferase (HST) catalyzes the prenylation and decarboxylation of homogentisate to form 2-methyl-6-solanesyl-1,4-benzoquinol, the first intermediate in plastoquinone-9 biosynthesis.

Homogentisate solanesyl transferase (HST) catalyzes the prenylation and decarboxylation of homogentisate to form 2-methyl-6-solanesyl-1,4-benzoquinol, the first intermediate in plastoquinone-9 biosynthesis. In vitro, HST from Spinacia oleracea L., Arabidopsis thaliana, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were all found to use not only solanesyl diphosphate but also short chain prenyl diphosphates of 10-20 carbon atoms as prenyl donors. Surprisingly, with these donors, prenyl transfer was largely decoupled from decarboxylation, and thus the major products were 6-prenyl-1,4-benzoquinol-2-methylcarboxylates rather than the expected 2-methyl-6-prenyl-1,4-benzoquinols. The 6-prenyl-1,4-benzoquinol-2-methylcarboxylates were not substrates for HST-catalyzed decarboxylation, and the enzyme kinetics associated with forming these products appeared quite distinct from those for 2-methyl-6-prenyl-1,4-benzoquinol formation in respect of catalytic rate, substrate K(m) value, and the pattern of inhibition by haloxydine, a molecule that appeared to act as a dead end mimic of homogentisate. These observations were reconciled into a simple model for the HST mechanism. Here, prenyl diphosphate binds to HST to form at least two alternative complexes that go on to react differently with homogentisate and prenylate it either with or without it first being decarboxylated. It is supposed that solanesyl diphosphate binds tightly and preferentially in the mode that compels prenylation with decarboxylation. << Less
