glyceraldehyde/トウモロコシ

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) (EC 1.2.1.13), a chloroplast enzyme, had low activity in etioplasts of maize leaves. A light dependent increase of enzyme activity of 7-day-old etiolated seedlings showed a lag period of

Nonphosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (np-Ga3PDHase) is a cytosolic unconventional glycolytic enzyme of plant cells regulated by phosphorylation in heterotrophic tissues. After interaction with 14-3-3 proteins, the phosphorylated enzyme becomes less active and more sensitive to

Metabolite levels in kernels of selected starch-deficient mutants of maize (Zea mays L.) were investigated to gain insight into partitioning of carbohydrate metabolism during kernel development. Several free sugars, hexose phosphates, triose phosphates, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, and pyrophosphate

Preparations of TPN-linked nonreversible d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.9), free of TPN-linked reversible d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, have been obtained from green shoots, etiolated shoots, and cotyledons of pea (Pisum sativum), cotyledons of peanut (Arachis

cDNA clones were selected from a corn (Zea mays L.) leaf lambda gt11 expression library using polyclonal antibodies for corn leaf NADH:nitrate reductase. One clone, Zmnrl, had a 2.1 kilobase insert, which hybridized to a 3.2 kilobase mRNA. The deduced amino acid sequence of Zmnrl was nearly

An albino seedling of Zea mays L. was investigated for its potential for CO2-assimilation. In the mesophyll the number, dimensions and fine structure of chloroplasts are drastically reduced but to a lesser extent in the bundle sheath. Chlorophyll concentration is zero and carotenoid concentration

The localization of enzymes responsible for nitrate assimilation and the generation of NADH for nitrate reduction were studied in corn (Zea mays L.) leaf blades. The techniques used effectively separated mesophyll and bundle sheath cells as judged by microscopic observations, enzymic assays,

Twenty-eight Angus steers (289 kg) were finished on a high-concentrate diet (85% concentrate: 15% roughage; CONC), or endophyte-free tall fescue pastures with corn grain supplement (0.52% of BW; PC), corn oil plus soybean hull supplement (0.10% of BW corn oil plus 0.45% of BW soybean hulls; PO), or

1. Preceding experiments had shown that irradiance of intact leaves or of isolated chloroplasts causes a reversible increase in the activity of NADP-GPD (Ziegler and Ziegler, 1965) as well as of ribulose-5-phosphate kinase (Latzko and Gibbs, 1969). Examination of several species which carry out the

OBJECTIVE Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) are a family of ubiquitin-related, proteins that are involved in a wide variety of signaling pathways. SUMOylation, as a vital post translational modification, regulate protein function in manycellular processes. Diazinon (DZN), an organophosphate

Modern diets have become increasingly rich in fructose, for example through the addition of high-fructose corn syrup to many foods and drinks. It has been suggested that this might lead to hepatotoxicity, including the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. After entering hepatocytes via

Protein accumulation and protein synthesis were investigated during anaerobic stress and heat shock in maize seedlings (Zea mays L.). Antibodies against alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPC) were used to investigate the expression of the genes

The aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) are classified as oxidoreductases and are found in organisms from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. The AKR superfamily consists of more than 120 proteins that are distributed throughout 14 families. Very few plant AKRs have been characterized and their biological functions

Flooding, a natural cause of anaerobiosis, is often accompanied by high CO(2) concentrations in the flood water. Plants need to respond to these environmental conditions. Strong anaerobic reporter gene activity in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) controlled by the glycolytic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate

C(4) phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is post-translationally regulated by reversible phosphorylation of a specific N-terminal seryl residue in response to light/dark transitions of the parent leaf tissue. The protein-serine kinase (PEPC-PK) that phosphorylates/activates this
