Glutathione status and its relationship to protein synthesis during water deficit and subsequent rehydration have been examined in the drought-tolerant moss, Tortula ruralis. During slow drying there is a small decrease in total glutathione but the percentage of oxidized glutathione (GSSG)
The activities of glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2), glutathione peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.9), and glutathione S-transferase (EC 2.5.1.18) were found to increase during slow drying or during rehydration following rapid drying of the drought-tolerant moss Tortula ruralis. Little change was observed in
Rapidly dried Tortula ruralis, a drought-tolerant moss, is known to synthesize proteins on rehydration at a much lower rate than the slowly dried moss. The reasons for this low rate of protein synthesis are unclear. We have found that during rehydration of rapidly dried moss, there is a negative
