The common ice plant, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L., is a eu-halophytic model species with an environmental stress-initiated switch from C3 photosynthesis to crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM). Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity in 6-week-old plants exposed to salt stress for 5
Vacuolar ATPase activities were determined by differential inhibition of homogenates of isolated protoplasts (using the inhibitors molybdate for acid phosphatases, vanadate for plasmalemma ATPase, azide for mitochondrial ATPase, and phlorizin for chloroplast ATPase) and in preparations of isolated
Ten transcripts (Mpc1-10) homologous to protein phosphatases of the 2C family have been isolated from the halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum (common ice plant). Transcripts range in size from 1.6 to 2.6 kb, and encode proteins whose catalytic domains are between 24% and 62% identical to that of
A rapid, semiquantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction assay was developed to investigate signal transduction events involved in the induction of Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in detached common ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum) leaves. Transcript abundance of Ppc1, a
