B-deficient bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) nodules examined by light microscopy showed dramatic anatomical changes, mainly in the parenchyma region. Western analysis of total nodule extracts examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that one 116-kD polypeptide was
A novel extensin gene has been identified in soybean (Glycine max L.) that encodes a hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (SbHRGP3) with two different domains. In this study expression of SbHRGP3 was investigated during soybean root development. SbHRGP was expressed in roots of mature plants, as well as
We have purified a cell wall protein from extracts of soybean (Glycine max) that was previously shown to be immunologically related to p33, a wound-induced carrot cell wall protein (Tierney ML, Wiechert J, Pluymers D [1988] Mol Gen Genet 211: 393-399). Amino acid composition analysis reveals that
Extensins (EXTs) are a family of plant cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs) that are implicated to play important roles in plant growth, development, and defense. Structurally, EXTs are characterized by the repeated occurrence of serine (Ser) followed by three to five prolines (Pro)
The lectin from Datura stramonium (thorn-apple; Solanaceae) has been purified by affinity chromatography and shown to be a glycoprotein containing about 40% (w/w) of carbohydrate. The most abundant amino acids are hydroxyproline, cystine, glycine and serine. Results obtained by gel filtration in
Soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) respond to pathogens by producing isoflavonoid-derived phytoalexins. Chalcone synthase (CHS) is the first enzyme of the flavonoid/isoflavonoid biosynthetic pathway. We investigated changes in the steady state levels of CHS mRNA and other specific mRNAs at increasing
A cell-free, insoluble cell wall fraction is described which floats on the surface of suspension cultures of Glycine max L. Merrill var. Acme cells. Its accumulation is governed by both the shaking speed and the medium volume, a shaking speed of 110 to 120 revolutions per minute with a medium volume
Peptidyl proline hydroxylase inhibitors block the growth of cultured soybean (Glycine max) cells and bring about the disappearance of the major salt-extractable hydroxyproline-rich protein, the 33 kilodalton repetitive proline-rich protein (RPRP2). Three polypeptides of 28, 20, and 14 kilodalton
We have characterized three different soybean (Glycine max) mRNAs that encode apoproteins of extensins, a family of cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs). These transcripts encoded distinctive Tyr-rich proteins containing characteristic Ser-Pro4 sequences organized in higher-order
In soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) root nodules the level of hydroxyproline-containing molecules is developmentally regulated. Hydroxyproline accumulates in both nodule cortex and medulla. In the cortex, the hydroxyproline is mainly localized in the cell wall, presumably as extensin, but in the
We investigated the proteins extractable from cell walls of stem tissues when plants were subjected to low water potentials (low psi(w)). Dark-grown soybean seedlings (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) showed decreased stem growth when the roots were exposed to vermiculite having low water content (psi(w) =
