Abstract: | The effects of spermidine, pH, ethylene diamine tetracetic acid (EDTA), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on deoxyribonuclease (DNase) activity associated with the chloroplasts of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) were investigated. Chloroplast DNase activity was found to be partially inhibited by either 10 mM spermidine, 20 mM EDTA, or 20 mM ATP. DNase activity was also partially inhibited at non-neutral pH's. Nearly complete inhibition was achieved with use of 30 mM EDTA, pH 10, or a combination of 10 mM spermidine and 10 mM EDTA. |
