A polypeptide of Mr 4400 was isolated from soybean (Glycine max) seeds by extraction with 60% ethanol followed by ion-exchange and reverse-phase chromatography. The peptide contains an unusually high amount of aspartic acid residues (approximately 25%, and hence is designated as soybean aspartic
In a previous study (Melzer and O'Leary, 1987, Plant Physiol. 84, 58-60), we used isotopic methods to show that a substantial fraction of protein-bound aspartic acid in tobacco is derived from anaplerotic synthesis via phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase. Similar studies in soybean (Glycine max
Transfer RNAs and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases were isolated from 5- and 20-day-old etiolated ageing soybean cotyledons. The relative concentrations of Mg2+ and ATP for optimal acylation (using homologous tRNAs and synthetases) for the 16 amino acids tested indicate that the amino acids can be grouped
A simple and reliable method for the determination of NH4+, K+, Na+, aspartic acid, asparagine, glutamine, and alanine by ion chromatography has been developed. It is suitable for monitoring changes of nitrogen metabolism in soybean because it can accurately measure concentrations o asparagine and
The free and protein amino acids of nine different genotypes of grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) seeds were analysed by HPLC with pre-column PITC (phenyl isothiocyanate) derivatisation. Among the free amino acids, homoarginine was quantitatively the most important (up to 0.8% seed weight) and stable
Soybean (Glycine max L.) cotyledon callus grown on radioactive 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D-1-(14)C) as an auxin produced 2,4-D metabolites, which qualitatively and quantitatively changed with time. Water soluble fractions from the tissue exhibited a steady increase in radioactivity during
The timing of both flowering and maturation determine crop adaptability and productivity. Soybean (Glycine max) is cultivated across a wide range of latitudes. The molecular-genetic mechanisms for flowering in soybean have been determined for photoperiodic responses to long days (LDs), but remain
Fruits of soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) that are destined to abscise shortly after anthesis grow more slowly than fruits that will be retained. In this work, amino acid composition, protein metabolism, and nucleic acid metabolism were studied in setting and abscising soybean ovaries from anthesis
Asparagine biosynthesis in soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) nodules has been difficult to demonstrate due to the poor conversion of suspected immediate precursors to asparagine and the instability of the key enzyme asparagine synthetase. The present study was designed to explore the effects of two
Nitrogen metabolism is not only one of the basic processes of plant physiology, but also one of the important parts of global chemical cycle. Plant nitrogen assimilation directly takes part in the synthesis and conversion of amino acid through the reduction of nitrate. During this stage, some key
Nodulation and shoot nitrogen of two varieties of soybean (Glycine max) were studied with twenty strains of Rhizobium japonicum. A number of cultural characteristics of the strains in isolation to the symbiotic system were also studied. A stepwise selection method was employed for detecting
Some d-amino acid (glutamic acid, valine, or leucine) conjugates of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at 10(-5) molar, stimulated elongation of Avena sativa L. var Mariner coleoptile sections and growth of soybean (Glycine max. L. var Amsoy) tissue as much as did the l-amino acid conjugates at
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a good source of natural antioxidants and commonly consumed as fermented products such as cheonggukjang, miso, tempeh, and sufu in Asian countries. The aim of the current study was to examine the influence of novel endophytic bacterial strain, Bacillus
The bulk of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in plants is found in the form of conjugated molecules, yet past research on identifying these compounds has largely relied on methods that were both laborious and inefficient. Using recent advances in analytical instrumentation, we have developed a simple yet
Fragrance in soybean is due to the presence of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP). BADH2 gene coding for betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase has been identified as the candidate gene responsible for fragrance in rice (Oryza sativa L.). In this study, using the RIL population derived from fragrant soybean
