Abstract: | The effect of 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP), NaN3, and iodoacetic acid (IDA) on glutamine synthetase (GS) and the effect of arsenate on GS, glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and nitrate reductase (NR) was studied in isolated pea roots. In sucrose supplied roots, GS level is depressed by higher concentrations of all the inhibitors tested and increased by lower (2 × and 3 × 10− M) concentrations of 2,4-DNP; the decrease in GS level caused by sugar starvation is enhanced by all but IDA. GDH is enhanced by arsenate in a wider range of concentrations in sucrose-supplied roots than in roots cultivated without sucrose. NR is affected by arsenate similarly as GS. |
