Fig. 1

Schematic representation of the major metabolic pathways present in determinate nodules of legumes. The figure illustrates the biosynthesis of nitrogen compounds in infected and uninfected cells, together with sucrose catabolism from the aerial parts of the plant to symbiosomes. NASA: nitrogenase; Glu: glutamate; Gln: glutamine; 2OG: 2-oxoglutarate; OAA: oxaloacetate; Asp: aspartate; GS: glutamine synthetase; GOGAT: glutamate synthase; AAT: aspartate aminotransferase; PRPP: phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate; IMPDH: inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase; Xanthine DH: xanthine dehydrogenase; UDP: uridine diphosphate; SS: sucrose synthase; AI: alkaline invertase; UDPGTP: uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase; PEPC: phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase; MDH: malate dehydrogenase
