摘要
NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) catalyses the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to yield 2-oxoglutarate. Even if an ICDH activity is widely present in living organisms, the physiological role of this protein remains completely unknown. The situation is further complicated by the presence, in eukaryotic cells, of several ICDH isoenzymes located in different subcellular compartments, as well as by their unstability. In an attempt to advance the understanding on the function(s) of these isoenzymes in plants, we have decided to compare the properties and the physiological roles of the ICDH from other organisms with the higher plant ICDH isoenzymes. In this review, we make the point on the current knowledge of the physiological role of the E. coli, yeast and mammalian enzymes. The convenience of utilizing these data to study the physiological roles of the plant ICDHs is discussed.
