Abstract: | Changes in the activities of adenyl cyclase, cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, protein phosphokinase, RNase, protease, DNA, RNA and protein synthesis during the initial imbibition phase of the germination cycle of Cicer arietinum (chick pea, Bengal gram) are reported. Activation of adenyl cyclase and phosphorylation of cellular proteins appears to precede RNA and protein synthesis in the imbibed seeds. |
