Membrane anchoring facilitates colocalization of enzymes in plant cytochrome P450 redox systems

Laursen et al. investigates the role of membrane anchoring for the organization and efficiency of P450-driven plant metabolism. They report an original experimental design to monitor interactions between anchoring segments of membrane-bound enzymes at the single molecule level, using the cytochrome...

Description
Summary:Laursen et al. investigates the role of membrane anchoring for the organization and efficiency of P450-driven plant metabolism. They report an original experimental design to monitor interactions between anchoring segments of membrane-bound enzymes at the single molecule level, using the cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) transmembrane segment as a model, and propose that membrane anchoring has played a key role in the evolution of P450- based metabolic pathways in plants.
