Amino Acid transport in germinating castor bean seedlings.
During germination and early growth of the castor bean (Ricinus communis) nitrogenous constituents from the endosperm are transferred via the cotyledons to the growing embryo. Exudate collected from the cut hypocotyl of 4-day seedlings contained 120 millimolar soluble amino nitrogen and glutamine was the predominant amino acid present, comprising 35 to 40% of the total amino nitrogen. To determ...
متن کاملAccumulation of free ricinoleic Acid in germinating castor bean endosperm.
Lipids from the endosperm of germinating castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) were separated by thin layer chromatography and quantitated by gas chromatography. During the later stages of lipid breakdown (4-6 days germination at 30 C), several lipid classes were found in addition to the storage triglycerides, which are triricinoleins for the most part. One was identified as free ricinoleic ...
متن کاملLectins in castor bean seedlings.
The amounts of the two lectins (ricin and Ricinus communis agglutinin) in tissues of castor bean seedlings were followed during germination and early growth. For measurement, lectins in extracts were separately eluted from Sepharose columns; an antibody to the agglutinin was also used to detect the lectins by immunodiffusion. The endosperm of the dry seed contains 3.5 mg total lectin (5.6% of t...
متن کاملPyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex from Germinating Castor Bean
Subceliular organelles from castor bean (Ricuns commnwuis) endosperm were isolated on discontinuous sucrose gradients from germinating seeds which were 1 to 7 days postbit o. Marker enzyme activities of the organeUes were measured (fumarase, catalase, and triose phosphate isomerase) and the homogeneity of the organelle fractions was examined by electron microscopy. Pyrumate dehydrogenase comple...
متن کاملTransport of purine and pyrimidine bases and nucleosides from endosperm to cotyledons in germinating castor bean seedlings.
During germination and early growth of castor bean (Ricinus communis), all cellular constituents of the endosperm are eventually transferred to the growing embryo. The present results bear on the transport of breakdown products of nucleic acids. The total content of nucleic acids and nucleotides declines rapidly between day 4 and day 8 of seedling development. Concomitant with this decline, a s...
