Non-autotrophic carbon fixation has been studied during growthof tobacco callus cultured in dark under shoot-forming (SF)and non-shoot-forming (NSF) conditions. The enzymes involvedin malate metabolismphosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase,malic dehydrogenase, glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase, and malicenzymeincreased sharply during the first 4 d of cultureparticularly in SF tissue. The activities of the enzymes studiedwere considerably greater in SF than in NSF tissue. There wasa dramatic increase in malate content in SF tissue during thefirst 4 d of culture. Subsequently malate was rapidly depletedduring the time of organogenesis. In NSF tissue there was acontinuous build-up of malate content throughout the cultureperiod. We suggest that malate derived from dark fixation ofCO2 plays differing roles in NSF (callus) and SF tissues. Inthe former, malate acts primarily as an osmotic solute regulating,at least in part, cell expansion between successive cell divisions.In shoot-forming tissue, on the other hand, malate preferentiallyprovides NADPH for reductive biosynthesis. 相似文献

The changes in membrane permeability (soluble leakage), lipidperoxidation, and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) andcatalase have been studied during in situ senescence of leavesof Nicotiana tabacum L., cv. Wisconsin 38. After full leaf expansionwas reached there was a rapid, almost linear increase in therate of 86Rb leakage from the preloaded leaf discs, with leafage. Parallel with this increase in membrane permeability wasa cumulative increase in the level of lipid peroxidation. Atthe same leaf age there were changes in the activities of SODand catalase. SOD activity decreased on the basis of fresh weightbut did not change when measured on the basis of protein contentprobably due to relative stability of SOD during the senescence-associatedgeneral decline in protein content. Catalase activity firstincreased parallel with the chlorophyll content of the leafand then, after full leaf expansion, declined on the basis ofboth fresh weight and protein content. These changes in membranepermeability, lipid peroxidation, and the enzyme activitiescoincide in leaf age with the decline in protein and chlorophyllcontents and in chlorophyll a: b ratio. When the senescenceof the bottom-most leaves was reversed by removing the stemfrom immediately above them, the senescence-associated changesin protein and chlorophyll contents, lipid peroxidation, andthe enzyme activities were also reversed. It is suggested thatleaf senescence may be a consequence of cumulative membranedeterioration due to increasing level of lipid peroxidationprobably controlled by, among other factors, the activitiesof SOD and catalase. 相似文献
