磷饥饿时番茄幼苗根系质膜H+-ATP酶活性

磷饥饿提高了番茄幼苗质膜H+-ATP酶活性并促进了番茄幼苗根部的H+分泌。动力学分析表明,磷饥饿使番茄幼苗根部质膜H+-ATP酶的Km值明显降低,亦即提高了该酶对其底物的亲和力,但对该酶的Vmax影响不大。另外,磷饥饿并不改变ATP酶的最适pH值(最适pH值为6.5)。钒酸盐显著抑制番茄幼苗根部质膜ATP酶的活性以及H+分泌,也显著抑制番茄幼苗的Pi吸收。与对照相比,上述抑制作用在饥饿处理的植物中表现得更强。以上结果表明,磷饥饿时高亲和性Pi传递系统的诱导很可能包含质膜H+-ATP酶的参与。

磷饥饿下番茄幼苗根系液泡膜H+-ATPase活性的适应性变化

以‘世纪星’番茄为材料。研究了磷饥饿下番茄幼苗的生长状况及其根部液泡膜H^＋-ATPase活性的适应性变化。结果表明：磷饥饿下番茄幼苗的平均高度均低于对照苗,而主根长度均显著长于对照。磷饥饿提高了番茄幼苗根部液泡膜H^＋-ATPase的水解活性,随着磷胁迫时间的延长,该酶的活性逐渐增大,在磷饥饿7d时达到最大,后又略有降低;而对照番茄幼苗根部该酶的活性变化很小。动力学分析表明：磷饥饿使番茄幼苗根部液泡膜H^＋-ATPase的Km值明显降低,但对该酶的Kmax影响不大。这说明磷饥饿提高了该酶对其底物的亲和力。此外,磷饥饿并不改变液泡膜H^＋-ATPase酶的最适pH值（仍为7．5）。

磷酸饥饿时,番茄幼苗根部及地上部酸性磷酸酶活性均显著增强,根部细胞表面酸性磷酸酶及根部外泌的酸性磷酸酶活性亦明显提高。动力学分析表明,磷酸饥饿提高了番茄幼苗根部的酸性磷酸酶对其底物的亲和力。另外,磷酸饥饿对番茄幼苗根部酸性磷酸酶活性的最适ｐＨ值没有影响。钼酸对番茄幼苗根部酸性磷酸酶活性有强烈的抑制作用,对番茄幼苗Ｐｉ吸收速率也有十分明显的抑制效果。以上结果表明,磷酸饥饿时,番茄幼苗Ｐｉ吸收的适应性变化可能与根部酸性磷酸酶特别是根部细胞表面酸性磷酸酶及其外泌酸性磷酸酶的参与密切关联。     

铝和铝+钙对小麦幼苗根尖质膜、液泡膜微囊ATP酶和膜流动性的影响

研究了铝和铝 钙对小麦幼苗根尖质膜、液泡膜微囊H ATP酶、Ca2 ATP酶、Mg2 ATP酶活性及其动力学参数和膜流动性的影响。在质膜和液泡膜微囊制剂中加入 1.0mmol/L的Al3 (AlCl3)时 ,H ATP酶、Ca2 ATP酶、Mg2 ATP酶活性和酶促反应的Vmax及膜流动性下降 ,而酶促反应的最适pH和Km 均不受影响。提高酶促反应介质的Ca2 (CaCl2 )浓度可以缓解Al3 对膜ATP酶活性和膜流动性的影响。推测Al3 可能通过与膜的结合而抑制膜ATP酶的活性

局部供磷对玉米根系生长、磷吸收速率的影响

玉米幼苗种子根局部供磷可明显改变根系的形态。供磷区侧根生长增加,无磷区侧极生长减少。供磷区1次、2次侧根长度与2次侧根数量明显增加;而1次侧根数量则不增加。供磷区缩小时,根系生长加快,单位根区磷吸收速率增加,但单位根重磷吸收速率的增加不很明显。磷局部供应植株主要通过供磷区根系的生长来增加磷的吸收,以满足植株对磷的需求。局部供磷植株中转运到供磷根区的光合产物明显多于无磷根区。     

Phosphate transport in plants

Transport of inorganic phosphate (P_i) through plant membranes is mediated by a number of families of transporter proteins. Studies on the topology, function, regulation and sites of expression of the genes that encode the members of these transporter families are enabling roles to be ascribed to each of them. The Pht1 family, of which there are nine members in the Arabidopsis genome, includes proteins involved in the uptake of P_i from the soil solution and the redistribution of P_i within the plant. Members of this family are H₂PO₄ ^–/H⁺ symporters. Most of the genes of the Pht1 family that are expressed in roots are up-regulated in P-stressed plants. Two members of the Pht1 family have been isolated from the cluster roots of white lupin. These same genes are expressed in non-cluster roots. The evidence available to date suggests that there are no major differences between the types of transport systems that cluster roots and non-cluster roots use to acquire P_i. Differences in uptake rates between cluster and non-cluster roots can be ascribed to more high-affinity P_i transporters in the plasma membranes of cluster roots, rather than any difference in the characteristics of the transporters. The efficient acquisition of P_i by cluster roots arises primarily from their capacity to increase the availability of soil P_i immediately adjacent to the rootlets by excretion of carboxylates, protons and phosphatases within the cluster. This paper reviews P_i transport processes, concentrating on those mediated by the Pht1 family of transporters, and attempts to relate those processes involved in P_i acquisition to likely P_i transport processes in cluster roots.

Phosphate uptake and utilization by bacteria and algae

Bacterial uptake of inorganic phosphate (closely investigated in Escherichia coli) is maintained by two different uptake systems. One (Pst system) is P_i-repressible and used in situations of phosphorus deficiency. The other system (Pit system) is constitutive. The Pit system also takes part in the phosphate exchange process where orthophosphate is continuously exchanged between the cell and the surrounding medium.Algal uptake mechanisms are less known. The uptake capacity increases during starvation but no clearly defined transport systems have been described. Uptake capacity seems to be regulated by internal phosphorus pools, e.g., polyphosphates. In mixed algal and bacterial populations, bacteria generally seem to be more efficient in utilizing low phosphate concentrations. The second half of this paper discusses how bacteria and algae can share limiting amounts of phosphate provided that the bacteria have pronouncedly higher affinity for phosphate. Part of the solution to this problem may be that bacteria are energy-limited rather than phosphate-limited and dependent on algal organic exudates for their energy supply.The possible phosphate exchange mechanism so convincingly demonstrated in Escherichia coli is here suggested to play a key role for the flux of phosphorus between bacteria and algae. Such a mechanism can also be used to explain the rapid phosphate exchange between the particulate and the dissolved phase which always occurs in short-term ³²P-uptake experiments in lake waters.     

Phosphate uptake inLemna gibba G1: energetics and kinetics

Phosphate uptake was studied by determining [³²P]phosphate influx and by measurements of the electrical membrane potential in duckweed (Lemna gibba L.). Phosphate-induced membrane depolarization (E _m ) was controlled by the intracellular phosphate content, thus maximal E _m by 1 mM H₂PO ₄ ^- was up to 133 mV after 15d of phosphate starvation. The E _m was strongly dependent on the extracellular pH, with a sharp optimum at pH 5.7. It is suggested that phosphate uptake is energized by the electrochemical proton gradient, proceeding by a 2H⁺/H₂PO ₄ ^- contransport mechanism. This is supported also by the fusicoccin stimulation of phosphate influx. Kinetics of phosphate influx and of E _m , which represent mere plasmalemma transport, are best described by two Michaelis-Menten terms without any linear components.Abbreviations E _m electrical membrane potential difference - E _m phosphate-induced, maximal membrane depolarization - FW fresh weight     

Phosphate compounds as iron chelators in animal cell cultures

Summary We have studied the capacity of a number of phosphate compounds to act in the double role as a phosphate source and a detoxifier of ferric chloride hydroxo compounds, i.e. as Fe(III) chelators. The tested compounds were: orthophosphate, trimetaphosphate, α-glycerophosphate, β-glycerophosphate, phytic acid, and phosphorylcholine; the test organism the ciliate protozoonTetrahymena thermophila, an animal cell; and the nutrient medium was synthetic, consisting solely of low-molecular-weight compounds. We assessed growth rates of cells in two experimental series. First, phosphate-starved cells were exposed to the tested phosphate compound as the only phosphate source and the ferric chloride concentrations were varied stepwise from 0 to 1000μM. Second, we offered the cells orthophosphate as a phosphate source and selected phosphate compounds as chelators. The cell growth results allow the following conclusions: orthophosphate, trimetaphosphate, α-glycerophosphate, and β-glycerophosphate are excellent phosphate sources; trimetaphosphate, α-glycerophosphate, β-glycerophosphate, and phytic acid are excellent Fe(III) chelators; of the tested compounds trimetaphosphate, α-glycerophosphate, and β-glycerophosphate are excellent in the double role as a phosphate source and a ferric chloride hydroxo detoxifier, i.e. as a Fe(III) chelator.     

Phosphate immobilisation in an uncropped field experiment on a calcareous soil

From an uncropped field trial on a calcareous soil, residual phosphate was monitored as function of time. At the start of the experiment, superphosphate at a rate of 150 kg P per hectare was applied. Extractable phosphate, using 0.5 M NaHCO₃ as extractant, is declining in the control and fertilised plot at a different rate as function of ageing time, lasting more than 7 years. Intersection of the linear regressions expressing the influence of ageing time on the extractable phosphate occurs at 11.37±6.48 years. Total P in the arable layer remains constant throughout the whole duration of the experiment. H Marschner Section editor
