Various Cucurbita seed globulins showed patterns similar toone another on SDS-gel electrophoresis, and ß bandsfor unreduced globulins and , ', and ' bands for reduced ones.On gel electrophoresis in 6 M urea, reduced globulin gave twoacidic and two basic bands. These corresponded to and ' chainsand 1 and 2 chains, respectively, identified by two-dimensionalurea-SDS gel electrophoresis. The compositions of the and ßsubunits were proposed.

Subunits (, ß, ) and mixtures of subunits ( ß, , ß , ß ) were isolated without denaturationfrom a chloroform extract of chloroplast coupling factor 1 (CF1)from maize (Zea mays var. Ushiku 5-4) and from spinach by fastprotein liquid chromatography (FPLC), on an anion-exchange columnof Mono-Q in the presence of n-octylglucoside (OG) and on achromatofocusing column of Mono-P. The ß -subunitcomplex (CF1 ß ) was the minimum unit required forATPase activity, as was confirmed by the reconstituted complexof ß and subunits. An subunit isolated from maizeinhibited the ATPase activity of CF1 ß from bothmaize and spinach. CF1 ß was found to contain anOG-dependent Mg2+-ATPase. The ATPase activity of CF1 ß required divalent cations, such as Mg2+ or Mn2+, for its expressionin the presence of OG; its optimum pH was 8.0 and it was markedlyinhibited by NaN3. The enzyme hydrolyzed ATP in prefernece toGTP but not CTP, UTP, ADP, AMP or pNPP. Lineweaver-Burk plotsof its activity were curvilinear in the range of 0.60.7mM ATP.Mg2+.

Enzymatic Degradation of Chlorophyll in Chenopodium album 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The breakdown of chlorophyll (Chi) in crude extracts of Chenopodiumalbum (white goose foot) in the dark was examined. Derivativesof pheophorbide were formed when Chi or chlorophyllide wasincubated with depigmented crude extracts. The formation ofpheophorbide was completely prevented by heat treatment of extracts,indicating that the reaction was enzymatic, and the presenceof a Mg-releasing enzyme, the so called Mg-dechelatase, waspostulated. This hypothesis was strongly supported by the observationthat the formation of pheophorbide was inhibited by 51% by 10mM MgCl2. Analysis by high-performance thin-layer chromatography(HPTLC) and liquid chromatography (HPLC) showed that the appearanceof chlorophyllide , pheophorbide 132-hydroxychlorophyllide and pyropheophorbide was accompanied by a concomitant decreasein levels of Chi The formation of 132-hydroxychloro-phyllide was not clearly an enzymatic reaction and requires furtherexamination. It appears that Chl is degraded in a crude extractof C. album via the following enzymatically catalyzed reactions

The sexual agglutinability of haploid cells of heterothallicSaccharomyces cerevisiae was repressed when they were culturedin the absence of easily fermentable sugars, such as glucoseand mannose. The repression was reversed by the action of hormone-likesubstances of the opposite mating types. The substance producedby mating type cells was identical to subtsance-I which isknown to induce sexual agglutinability of inducible matingtype cells. The mating type cells produce a new hormone-likesubstance which induces or enhances sexual agglutinability of mating type cells. A crude fraction of the mating type-specific substance ( substance-I)was obtained by passing the culture filtrate of mating typecells through Amberlite CG-50 (H+ form), followed by elutionwith 1.5 M ammonia.

Pumpkin seed globulin is composed of heterogeneous polypeptidechains, acidic and chains and basic 1 and 2 chains (12). This study showed that the basicchains had similar N-terminal sequences, Gly-Leu-Asp-Glu-Thr-Ile-for the 1 chain and Gly-Leu-Glu-Glu-Thr-Ile- for 2. On the contrary,the N-terminal sequences of the acidic and chains were dissimilar, Ile-Gln-Gly-Tyr- for the chain and no N-terminal residue for the chain, according to routine terminal analysis. Pyrrolidonylpeptidase digestion of the chain and its thermolysin digestion followed by Edman degradationsrevealed that the N-terminal sequence of the chain was < Glu-Ile-Glu-Gln-Gln-Glu-Pro(Trp,Ser)-. The N-terminal sequences and the C-terminal residuesindicated that the acidic and chains were more heterogeneous than the basic 1 and 2 chains.A preliminary study on the degradation of storage globulin isalso presented.

Various kinds of measurement of tissue water status were madeseveral times during water stress and recovery in Brassica juncea(cv Canadian Black) and B napus (cv Drakkar) Unstressed plantsof the two species had similar leaf water potentials (w), solute(s) and turgor potentials (p) Values of relative water content(RWC) and the slope of the linear relationship between p andRWC (p/RWC) were greater in B napus than in B juncea Statistical correlations of pooled data for the watered andstressed treatments differentiated the relationships among RWC,w and its components in the two species The major statisticaldifference was that p/RWC was related to RWC in B napus andto w and s in B juncea A decline in p/RWC with decreasing sin B juncea may be a mechanism for maintaining p at low soilwater potentials through maintenance of more elastic cell walls.

Eleven different types of bacteria were isolated which werecapable of growing on -caprolactam, the monomeric material fornylon 6 polyamide, as the sole source of both carbon and nitrogen. The optimal concentration of -caprolactam for the bacterialgrowth was about 0.6% in a synthetic liquid medium enrichedwith a small amount of yeast extract. The bacterial strains grew also on -butyrolactam, -valerolactamand the -amino acids corresponding to these lactams and -caprolactam.Ammonium adipate was a good substrate for the growth of allthe strains. One strain of Corynebacterium aurantiacum was found to be capableof utilizing cyclic and linear oligomers of 6-aminocaproic acidwith an exception of cyclic dimer. The strains of corynebacteria required vitamin B1 for growth. Metabolism of -caprolactam and related compounds is discussedbriefly. (Received September 9, 1965; ) 相似文献

A Ras-related NTP-binding protein was partially purified froma membrane fraction derived from the mycelia of Neurospora crassa.[-32P]ATP and [-32P]GTP were incubated with mem brane and solublefractions which were then irradiated with UV light to inducecrosslinking of tightly bound nucleotides. After SDS-polyacrylamidegel electrophoresis, blotting onto a nitrocellulose filter andautoradiography it was apparent that most of the proteins thatbound [-32P]-GTP also bound [-32P]ATP. Pretreatment of the membranefraction with Ras-specific antibody effectively blocked thebinding of [-32P]ATP and [-32P]GTP to several ATP-GTP-bindingproteins. The band of a protein with a molecular weight of 26kDa on the SDS-polyacrylamide gel cross-reacted strongly withthe Ras-specific antibody. The protein was extracted from thegel and further purified by repeated gel electrophoresis. Thepurified protein bound [-32P]ATP, [-32P]-GTP, [-32P]CTP and[-32P]UTP at 1.6x10 M and was autophosphorylated in thepresence of [-32P]ATP and [-32P]GTP at 1.7x10 M. Pretreatmentof the protein with Ras-specific antibody partially blockedthe autophosphorylation in the presence of these nucleotides.The binding of [-32P]ATP to the NTP-binding protein was blockedby addition of ATP at 104103 M. ATP ata concentration of 104 M prevented the binding of [-32P]to a greater extent than did GTP at the same concentration.Binding of [-32P]CTP and [-32P]UTP to the protein was also observed.

-Caprolactam-utilizing bacteria split -caprolactam, -valerolactamand -butyrolactam, and produce the -amino acids correspondingto them. This activity is lost when cells are grown on 6-amino-caproicacid or ammonium adipate, and reappears when cells are incubatedwith either -caprolactam or -valerolactam as the sole majororganic nutrient. Chloramphenicol inhibits this adaptation.The enzyme splitting those lactams is one and the same. It maybe called "lactam-splitting enzyme". But attempts to demonstratethe enzymic activity in a cell-free system has not yet beensuccessful. (Received September 9, 1965; ) 相似文献

An a mating type mutant of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiaewhich expressed high sexual activities during vegetative growthwas isolated and characterized. Its constitutive sexual agglutinabilitywas higher than the sexual agglutinability of its parental straininduced by pheromone. It produced a pheromone and -pheromone-inactivatingsubstances in larger amounts than its parental strain. It alsoproduced large pear-shaped cells (shmooed cells) without pheromone,was more sensitive to pheromone, and grew vegetatively moreslowly than its parental strain. When the mutant was crossedto a wild type strain isogenic with the parental strain, amating type segregants with high constitutive sexual agglutinabilityshowed self-shmooing. However, in a mating type segregants self-shmooingwas not observed regardless of the degree of their sexual agglutinability.The cross between a and segregants, both of which carried themutation, had higher frequency of zygote formation than thecrosses between a and cells one of which or both of which wereof wild type.

Two proteolytic activities I and II involved in the globulindegradation were detected in pumpkin seeds. Activity I, hydrolyzing and ß subunits of the globulin to form Fß,was found in both dry seeds and cycloheximide-treated cotyledons,and decreased during germination. Activity II, hydrolyzing Fßto produce small peptides and amino acids, was not observedin dry seeds but found in cycloheximide-treated cotyledons,increased up to 4 days, and gradually decreased during germination. Activity I gave limited hydrolytic products from the globulinand the chain, but not from Fß, the chain and some animal proteins. It was inhibitedby EDTA. On the other hand, activity II hydrolyzed Fßand the chain faster than the globulin, the chain and some animal proteins. It was inhibitedby EDTA and p-chloromer-curibenzoate, and activated by ß-mercaptoethanol,dithiothreitol and CoCl2. Optimum pH's were at about 6.8 andat 6.0 to 6.8 for activities I and II, respectively. The degradation process of the globulin can be divided intotwo steps: the first step is the conversion of globulin to Fßand the second step, Fß to small peptides and aminoacids.

Temperature-dependent inhibitive actions of ,'-dipyridyl andcycloheximide on the senescence of maize leaves were studied.,'-Dipyridyl effectively inhibited the loss of chlorophyll at25?C but not at 35?C. Gycloheximide was highly effective inpreserving chlorophyll at both of 25 and 35?C. Spectral analysisof senescent leaves at 35?C in ,'-dipyridyl showed simultaneousbleaching the carotenoid and chlorophyll. (Received February 20, 1984; Accepted June 14, 1984) 相似文献

Nucleoside triphosphate(NTP)-binding proteins were detectedin the crude extract of mycelia of Neurospora crassa, whichwas treated with 1% Lubrol PX and fractionated by gel filtration.Protein fractions showing the capacity to bind [35S]ATPS or[35S]GTPS were designated as AGN1 to 6. The binding of [35S]ATPSor [35S]GTPS was prevented in the presence of 0.1 mM ATP orGTP except that in fractions AGN1 and 2, the presence of GTPstimulated the binding of [35S] ATPS to ATP(NTP)-binding proteins.ATP or GTP was 1 to 2 orders of magnitude more effective thanCTP or UTP in preventing the binding of [35S]GTPS in AGN1, 2and 5. Among these fractions AGN1, 2, 5 and 6 showed activityto hydrolyze 1 nM [32P]ATP or [32P]GTP. NTP-bindingproteins bound with [35S]ATPS or [35S]GTPS had lower apparentmolecular weights than the same proteins without bound nucleotide.Proteins bound with [35S]ATPS or [35S]GTPS and those [32P]ADP-ribosylatedby endogenous ADP-ribosyl transferase in each fraction wereanalyzed by SDS-PAGE. About 20 species of ATP or ATP-GTP-bindingproteins were detected, several of which were ADP-ribosylated.The binding of [35S]ATPS or [35S]GTPS to NTP-binding proteinswas confirmed by the comparison of non-boiled and boiled samplesimmediately before loading to SDS-PAGE. ATP, GTP, CTP or UTPat the concentration of 0.1 mM effectively removed [33S]ATPSor [35S]GTPS bound to NTP-binding proteins. (Received December 10, 1990; Accepted April 18, 1991) 相似文献

The euryhaline charophyte Lamprothamnium papulosum (Wallr.)J. Gr. was adapted to media with decreasing salinities rangingfrom 550 to 0 mosmol kg1. Vegetative plants grown inmedia with osmotic pressures (0) in the range of 550 to 130mosmol kg1 maintained a constant turgor pressure () at309 + 7 mosmol kg1. The ions K+, Na+ and Cl, werethe predominant solutes in the vacuole. Changes in their concentrationsaccount for the variation in internal osmotic pressure (1) with,0. The divalent ions Mg2+, Ca2+ and were also present in significant amounts, but their concentrationsdid not alter with changes in, 0. In cells subjected to hypo-osmotic shock the regulation of was incomplete. The turgor pressure increased from 302 to 383mosmol kg1. The first rapid response to the sudden decreasein 0 was a loss of K+ and Cl. In contrast to the decreasein ionic concentrations an accumulation of sucrose occurredwhich could account for the increase of . The increase in sucroseconcentration started 24 to 48 h after the downshock and reachedits highest value after 3 to 4 weeks. The sucrose concentrationin the vacuole was up to 320 mol m3. During this timethe ionic content continued to decrease but did not counterbalancethe sucrose concentration sufficiently to regain the original. High sucrose levels accompanied by an enhanced were also observedduring the period of fructification (sexual reproduction: formationof antheridia and oogonia) in Lamprothamnium kept under conditionsof constant salinity. It is concluded that high sucrose content and elevated arecharacteristic of sexual reproduction in this charophyte. Lamprothamniumis able to tolerate different during various developmentalstages (e.g. vegetative and reproductive phases). Key words: Lamprothamnium papulosum, sucrose, turgor pressure 相似文献

We discovered natural photosynthesis using Zn-containing bacteriochlorophyll in an acidophilic bacterium Acidiphilium rubrum. Chemical analysisof the cell extracts gave a 13 : 2 :1 molar ratio of Zn-bacteriochlorophyll : Mg-bacteriochlorophyll : bacteriopheophytin . Most of thepigments are associated with fully active reaction center andlight-harvesting complexes analogous to those in purple photosyntheticbacteria. The finding indicates an unexpectedly wide variabilityof photosynthesis.

The -amylase induced by helminthosporol and gibberellic acidin the embryo-less endosperm of barley was separated into thethree fractions, 1, 2 and 3, by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography.A maximum amount of the 2. was induced by gibberellic acid andthat of the as by helminthosporol. After rechromatography, the2 induced by gibberellic acid and the as induced by helminthosporolshowed their respective single bands in an electrophoresis agargel zymogram. On the other hand, the ai induced by helminthosporoland gibberellic acid showed three bands. Dihydrohelminthosporic acid, a derivative of helminthosporol,induced the same isozymes as helminthosporol did. (Received May 8, 1967; ) 相似文献

The effect of a pure preparation of substance-IA (S-IA) whoseamino acid sequence is identical to that of one of the factorpeptides (2), on sexual agglutinability and DNA synthesis wascomparatively studied. The optimum concentration of S-IA forthe induction of sexual agglutinability of cells of an inducible strain was 1 ng/ml. The inducing action of S-IA was detectedin 20 min and reached a maximum in 60 min. Only 8.7% inhibitionof DNA synthesis by S-IA in the same strain was detected in1 hr and 40.4% inhibition in 2 hr at a concentration of 1 µg/ml.These results suggest that the primary action of the peptidyl sex fractor on a mating-type cells is the induction of sexualagglutinabiity.

Localization of four glycosidases, -galactosidase (-Gal), ß-galactosidase(ß-Gal), -glucosidase (-Glu) and ß-glucosidase(ß-Glu) in suspension-cultured carrot cells was studied.Wall-bound enzymes were made soluble when the cells were convertedto protoplasts by cellulase and pectinase. -Gal was separatedinto two forms, designated I and II, by chromatography on aSephadex G-200 colunm. -Gal I was located exclusively in thecytoplasm whereas -Gal II was found in both the cytoplasmicand cellwall fractions. The pH optimum was in the neutral regionfor -Gal I and in the acidic region for the other glycosidases,including -Gal II. Both intact cells and protoplasts in suspensionculture secreted these glycosidases, except -Gal I, into themedium. Specific activities of the glycosidases, especiallythe activity of ß-Gal, decreased in the early logarithmicgrowth phase and increased as cells went through late logarithmicand stationary phases. In protoplast culture, glycosidase activitygradually increased as cell wall regeneration proceeded. (Received December 13, 1980; Accepted February 10, 1981) 相似文献
