Pea mutants chlorotica 2004 and 2014 with a low content of chlorophyll were studied. The mutant 2004 has light green leaves and stem, and the mutant 2014 has yellow green leaves and stem. They accumulate approximately 80 and 50% chlorophylls of the parent form of pea Torsdag cv. The content of carotene in carotenoids of the mutant 2004 was much lower, and the accumulation of lutein and violaxanthine was increased. The accumulation of all carotenoids in the mutant 2014 decreased almost proportionally to a decrease in the chlorophyll content. The rate of CO2 evolution in mutant chlorotica 2004 and 2014 was established to be lower. The quantum efficiency of photosynthesis in the mutants was 29-30% lower as compared to the control, and in hybrid plants it was 1.5-2-fold higher. It is assumed that the increase in the activity of the night-time respiration in gas exchange of chlorotica mutants and the drop of photosynthesis lead to a decrease in biomass increment. The results obtained allow us to conclude that the mutation of chlorotica 2004 and 2014 affects the genes controlling the formation and functioning of different components of the photosynthetic apparatus. 相似文献

The activity of "satellite" enzymes related to gluconeogenesis has been measured in the oocytes and embryos at the early stages of loach (Misgurnus fossilis L.) embryogenesis. The activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase increase during oocyte maturation by 30%, remains constant at the cleavage and blastula stages and decreased on the onset of gastrulation. In the both oocytes and embryos pyruvate dehydrogenase has been found only in the active form. The activity of citrate synthase, malate dehydrogenase and pyruvate carboxylase remained constant during oocyte maturation and et all early stage of embrional development. Citrate lyase and "malic"-enzyme were not found, Oocyte maturation is followed by a considerable increase in the malate and oxalacetate content, the level of pyruvate and acetyl-CoA being found invariable. 相似文献

Regeneration of protochlorophyllide in green and greening leaves of plants with varying proportions of protochlorophyllide forms in darkness 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
During illumination of dark-grown plants protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) is continuously transformed to chlorophyllide (Chlide). Different dark-grown plants, maize ( Zea mays cv. Sundance), wheat ( Triticum aestivum cv. Kosack), pea ( Pisum sativum cv. Kelwedon wonder), the lip1 mutant of pea, and the aurea mutant of tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ), have various ratios of spectral Pchlide forms in darkness. When the plants were illuminated and then returned to darkness Pchlide re-accumulated. The proportions of different Pchlide forms within the pool of re-accumulated Pchlide were followed by low temperature fluorescence emission and excitation spectra in green and greening leaves. After 1 h of illumination the spectral characteristics of regenerated Pchlide forms mirrored those of Pchlide in dark-grown plants and were thus species dependent. After a prolonged illumination period (24 h) as well as in fully green leaves energy transfer to chlorophyll (Chl) masked the presence of long-wavelength Pchlide in the fluorescence emission spectra. However, excitation spectra showed Pchlide absorption around 650 nm and its flash-induced disappearance confirmed its nature of phototransformable Pchlide. In fact the excitation spectra showed that the proportions of different Pchlide forms in green leaves highly resembled the proportions of Pchlide forms in dark-grown leaves and were specific for the plant variety. Thus Chl formation in both dark-grown and light-grown leaves can occur in a similar way through the main photoactive long-wavelength form of Pchlide. 相似文献

Data from 3 lines of investigation were presented indicating that chlorophyll is not necessary for the increase in the triphosphopyridine nucleotide-requiring triosephosphate dehydrogenase accompanying the illumination of etiolated pea plants. These include A) the kinetics of the development of chlorophyll and enzyme activity, B) the presence of enzyme activity in leaves grown in the dark on normal plants and C) the high specific enzyme activity in leaves of a chlorophyll-less mutant.It was also shown that the light-initiated increase of enzyme activity continues for several days after removal from the light and that illumination with far-red light before the dark period inhibited, but did not abolish, this increase. The ability of green plants to continue to produce the enzyme in the dark was eventually lost with time, for after 7 days in the dark a stimulation in leaf protein formation was not accompanied by an increase in enzyme activity. 相似文献

Information on the involvement of elongation-controlling hormones, particularly gibberellin (GA), in UV-B modulation of stem elongation and leaf growth, is limited. We aimed to study the effect of UV-B on levels of GA and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) as well as involvement of GA in UV-B inhibition of stem elongation and leaf expansion in pea. Reduced shoot elongation (13%) and leaf area (37%) in pea in response to a 6-h daily UV-B (0.45 W m?2) exposure in the middle of the light period for 10 days were associated with decreased levels of the bioactive GA1 in apical stem tissue (59%) and young leaves (69%). UV-B also reduced the content of IAA in young leaves (35%). The importance of modulation of GA metabolism for inhibition of stem elongation in pea by UV-B was confirmed by the lack of effect of UV-B in the le GA biosynthesis mutant. No UV-B effect on stem elongation in the la cry-s (della) pea mutant demonstrates that intact GA signalling is required. In conclusion, UV-B inhibition of shoot elongation and leaf expansion in pea depends on UV-B modulation of GA metabolism in shoot apices and young leaves and GA signalling through DELLA proteins. UV-B also affects the IAA content in pea leaves. 相似文献

Kinetic properties of purified chloroplast isoenzyme of the "malic" enzyme from corn leaves were studied. The enzyme had optimum activity at pH 8.0 and 36 degrees C. Under standart conditions the Michaelis constants for the "malic" enzyme with Mn2+ as cofactor are 0.091 mM for malate and 0.04 mM for NADP. In case of Mg2+ as cofactor they are 0.66 and 0.02 mM respectively. Respective Km values for the cofactors Mn2+ and Mg2+ are 0.018 and 0.091 mM. The activity of the "malic" enzyme was inhibited by reduced NADP and NAD, ATP, ADP, fructose-1,6-diphosphate, oxaloacetic, oxalic, glyoxylic, glycolic and alpha-ketoglutaric acids, as well as by phosphate anions and pyrophosphate. The inhibitory effect of all metabolites and ions is more pronounced in case of Mn, rather than Mg, used as cofactors for the reaction. A possibility of metabolic regulation of NADP-"malic" enzyme activity in the leaves of C4-plants, is discussed. 相似文献

In the course of conducting a biochemical screening program for mutant enzymes in mice, individuals with an apparent nonfunctional allele at the locus (Mod-1) responsible for cytoplasmic malic enzyme were observed. The variant, later attributed to a germinal mutation, was identified by starch gel electrophoresis and by enzyme activity measurements. A series of matings were made, and mice homozygous for the nonfunctional, null, allele (Mod-1) were produced. In liver, kidney, and testis homogenates, the homozygous mutant exhibited less than 10% of the enzyme activity of the control mice. By an enzyme immuno-inactivation study, the residual enzyme activity was shown to be mitochondrial malic enzyme in all of the tissues examined. By double immuno-diffusion experiments, the kidney homogenate of the mutant formed no precipitin lines with the antiserum to cytoplasmic malic enzyme. Thus, the null mutants express no proteins that crossreact with the antiserum to cytoplasmic malic enzyme (CRM negative). Tissue enzyme assays revealed no significant differences between the normal and the mutant mice in activities of other enzymes in the related metabolic pathways. Because malic acid and malic enzyme together are reported to serve as a pump for NADPH generation in cytoplasm, total cellular NADP+ and NADPH concentrations in liver were determined for the control and the mutant mice. In liver from two individual mutant mice, lower NADPH/NADP+ ratio was detected in comparison to the level in liver from control mice. In spite of the lower levels of NADPH in the mutant mice, their body weight and lipid content were not significantly altered. Mice without cytoplasmic malic enzyme exhibited no striking deficiencies in metabolism or viability. 相似文献

A chlorophyll-deficient mutant of pea (Pisum sativum) was found as a spontaneous mutation of the variety Greenfeast. Total chlorophyll of the mutant leaves was about one-half that of normal pea leaves per mg dry weight, and the ratio of chl a:chl b ranged from 10 to 18, compared with 3 for normal pea. In each generation the mutant plants gave rise to normal and mutant plants and lethal plants with yellow leaves. 相似文献

Traction forces of male and female southern green stink bugs Nezara viridula (L.) were measured on adaxial leaves of green beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. ‘Nagauzura’), peas (Pisum sativum L. cv. ‘Hakuryu’), rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. ‘Mac hin sung’), and soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv. ‘Enrei’), as well as on glass as a control surface. Bugs attached well on three-dimensionally structured surfaces covered with anti-adhesive epicuticular wax crystals. Strongest pulls were generated on adaxial green bean leaves, corresponding to safety factors (traction force/body weight) of 11.1 and 11.6 in males and females, respectively. These values were slightly lower on soybean (males: 7.4, females: 8.0) and rice leaves (males: 8.9, females: 10.6). Trichomes and papillae are assumed to promote pentatomid bug’s attachment. On tabular, wax-covered pea leaves, safety factors decreased significantly to 1.7 and 1.6, in males and females, respectively. Differently, on non-structured glass, safety factors resembled those on rice and soybean leaves (males: 9.6, females: 8.0). No statistical differences in traction force and safety factor between sexes were detected on any substrate. Surface wettability did not significantly affect the results. Both robust claws and tough adhesive pads enable the N. viridula bugs to grasp and adhere to a wide range of various plant substrates, including such ones covered with anti-adhesive wax crystals. However, tabular, pruinose pea leaves were detected to prevent the foothold of the southern green stink bugs, although pea is known as one of their common host plants. 相似文献

Summary Multiple molecular forms of glutamine synthetase (GS, EC 6.3.1.2) have been studied in pea seeds of different varieties. The number of GS molecular forms in the seeds proved to be related to their colour. Two GS forms in the green seeds have been found and only one of them in the yellow seeds. Green seeds had chlorophyll content amounted to 0.4% of the total pigment content in the leaves. Chloroplasts, somewhat smaller than those in pea leaves of the same variety, have been isolated from green seeds. The presence of the second GS form in the pea green seeds we relate to the chloroplasts. By electrophoretic mobility both forms of GS from the green seeds are not identical to the chloroplast GS and the cytosol GS of leaves. Thus, we believe pea plant to contain, at least, four GS forms. 相似文献

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) has been purified from the mitochondria of green pea leaves. Activity can be fractionated into two distinct peaks by ion exchange chromatography. While these two forms of the enzyme are immunologically indistinguishable, immunoinhibition experiments show the presence of a distinct non-mitochondrial third form of the enzyme to also be present in green pea leaves. While this mitochondrial form of SHMT is abundant in leaves it is absent from roots, although the two tissues have comparable SHMT activity. An antibody raised to purified mitochondrial SHMT was used to screen a cDNA expression library. The sequence of one of the isolated positive clones contained an open reading frame, which encoded a sequence that matched the amino acid sequence determined from the N terminus of the mature protein. The open reading frame encodes a mature protein of 487 amino acids with a M(r) of 54,000, together with a 27-31 amino acid serine-rich leader sequence, presumably required for mitochondrial targeting. The cDNA hybridizes to a small multigene family of 2-3 genes, which appear to be expressed predominantly in leaves. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with the amino acid sequences of the rabbit mitochondrial and cytoplasmic SHMT, show that pea mitochondrial SHMT is equally similar to both of these enzymes. In addition, the rabbit sequences are more like one another than they are to the pea sequence, suggesting an interesting evolutionary relationship for these proteins. 相似文献

Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activity was measured using HPLC in pea leaves following exogenous application of l-phenylalanine and ferulic acid. Treatment with different concentrations (50, 100 and 150 ppm) of l-phenylalanine caused increased activity of PAL in comparison to the control. In pea leaves treated with 50 ppm l-phenylalanine, maximum PAL activity was observed after 72 h of treatment. Application of ferulic acid first reduced PAL activity at lower concentration (50 ppm) but increased at higher concentrations of the compound (100 and 150 ppm) in pea leaves as compared to the control. Maximum PAL activity was 0.19 nM cinnamic acid/min/g fresh wt. after 24 h at 50 ppm and then increased with time. Treatment with both the compounds significantly reduced conidial germination of Erysiphe pisi on pea leaves. They were equally effective at 100 and 150 ppm in reducing conidial germination. The conidial germination on l-phenylalanine-treated leaves was 26% after 24 h and that on ferulic acid-treated leaves was 34% as compared to the control (46%). Foliar application of different concentrations of l-phenylalanine increased the level of ferulic acid in the leaves of pea plants. Maximum accumulation of ferulic acid (79.3 and 83.5 μg/g fresh wt.) was observed following the application of l-phenylalanine after 24 h and 48 h, respectively. At 50 ppm, ferulic acid accumulation in pea leaves was 35.6 and 39.4 μg/g fresh wt. and 74.3 and 86.5 μg/g fresh wt. at 100 ppm. 相似文献

We isolated a COP1 cDNA from rice and found that it could complement the Arabidopsis cop1-4 mutant. The putative rice COP1 protein has the Ring-finger, coiled-coil. and WD-40 repeat domains, which are also conserved in pea, tomato, and mammalian COP1 proteins. The degree of overall identity between rice COP1 and Arabidopsis COP1 is 73%, and the similarity value is 83%. Expression of rice COP1 was detected in almost all plant tissues, with the level being relatively higher in calli and very low in etiolated leaves. The expression level was positively controlled by light in etiolated and green leaves. At the end of the light period, expression of the gene in green leaves could be down-regulated by far-red light. This far-red light effect could be prevented by subsequent irradiation with red light. These results indicate that phytochrome regulates rice COP1 expression. 相似文献

Illumination of etiolated maize plants for 80 h brings about a 15-20-fold increase in activity of NADP malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40). Increases in NADP malic enzyme protein and in the level of translatable mRNA for this protein occur simultaneously with the activity increase. Radiolabeled amino acids are also incorporated into NADP malic enzyme during this time. These results are consistent with the conclusion that an increase in NADP malic enzyme activity during greening results from de novo synthesis of NADP malic enzyme protein. Polyadenylated RNA extracted from greening maize leaves directs the synthesis in vitro of a protein 12,000 daltons larger than NADP malic enzyme purified from corn leaves. This protein is a precursor of NADP malic enzyme because 1) both the precursor and mature NADP malic enzyme are immunoprecipitated by antibody made against NADP malic enzyme purified from corn leaves, 2) both NADP malic enzyme protein and the level of mRNA for the precursor increase during greening, and 3) peptide maps of the precursor and of mature NADP malic enzyme are very similar. Mature NADP malic enzyme and its precursor (synthesized in vitro) both migrate on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gradient gels as doublet bands. Peptide analyses show all bands to be structurally related. 相似文献

The compound leaf primordium of pea represents a marginal blastozone that initiates organ primordia, in an acropetal manner, from its growing distal region. The UNIFOLIATA (UNI) gene is important in marginal blastozone maintenance because loss or reduction of its function results in uni mutant leaves of reduced complexity. In this study, we show that UNI is expressed in the leaf blastozone over the period in which organ primordia are initiated and is downregulated at the time of leaf primordium determination. Prolonged UNI expression was associated with increased blastozone activity in the complex leaves of afila (af), cochleata (coch), and afila tendril-less (af tl) mutant plants. Our analysis suggests that UNI expression is negatively regulated by COCH in stipule primordia, by AF in proximal leaflet primordia, and by AF and TL in distal and terminal tendril primordia. We propose that the control of UNI expression by AF, TL, and COCH is important in the regulation of blastozone activity and pattern formation in the compound leaf primordium of the pea. 相似文献

A genetically determined absence of mitochondrial malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) in c3H/c6H mice is accompanied by a four-fold increase in liver glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and a two-fold increase for 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase activity. Smaller increases in the activity of serine dehydratase and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase are observed while the level of glutamic pyruvate transaminase activity is reduced in the liver of deficient mice. Unexpectedly, the level of activity of total malic enzyme in the livers of mitochondrial malic enzyme-deficient mice is increased approximately 50% compared to littermate controls. No similar increase in soluble malic enzyme activity is observed in heart of kidney tissue of mutant mice and the levels of total malic enzyme in these tissues are in accord with expected levels of activity in mitochondrial malic enzyme-deficient mice. The divergence in levels of enzyme activity between mutant and wild-type mice begins at 19--21 days of age. Immunoinactivation experiments with monospecific antisera to the soluble malic enzyme and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase demonstrate that the activity increases represent increases in the amount of enzyme protein. The alterations are not consistent with a single hormonal response. 相似文献

White leaves of the mutant line albostrians and green leaves of the wild-type cultivar Salome of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were screened for the presence of plastidic and cytosolic isoenzymes of sugar-phosphate metabolism. Isoenzyme separation was achieved by anion-exchange chromatography on Fractogel TSK DEAE-650(S). The mutant tissue had a markedly reduced level of plastidic 3-phosphoglycerate kinase, triosephosphate isomerase, and aldolase activity. In contrast, the activity of plastidic glucosephosphate isomerase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, starch phosphorylase, and ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase was in the same range as in wild-type leaf tissue. The activity of the corresponding cytosolic isoenzymes (including UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase) showed essentially no differences in mutant and wild type. The same trend was observed in dark-grown mutant and wild-type leaves. Interestingly, the total activity levels of all isoenzymes were about the same when comparing dark-grown and light-grown mutant or wild-type plants. From these data, it is concluded that mutant leaves exhibit a selective decrease of a subgroup of plastidic isoenzymes associated with the Calvin cycle. 相似文献
