Protein Synthesis in Embryos of Dormant and Germinating Agrostemma githago L. seeds.
The time course of protein synthesis in embryos of dormant and afterripened Agrostemma githago seeds was studied. In embryos of afterripened geminating seeds, protein synthesis increased in three successive stages: (a) concurrent with swelling; (b) during the lag phase between the completion of water uptake and the onset of growth; and (c) immediately after protrusion through the seed coat. Emb...
متن کاملEbulin 1, a nontoxic novel type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein from Sambucus ebulus L. leaves.
A novel type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) that we named ebulin 1 has been isolated from leaves of Sambucus ebulus L. (Caprifoliaceae). In vitro ebulin 1 strongly inhibited protein synthesis by rabbit reticulocyte lysates, rat brain, and rat liver cell-free systems but did not affect in vitro plant nor bacterial protein synthesis. Ebulin 1 is composed of two subunits, a catalytic A subu...
متن کاملEnhancement of Nitrate Reductase Activity by Benzyladenine in Agrostemma githago.
Nitrate reductase activity in excised embryos of Agrostemma githago increases in response to both NO(3) (-) and cytokinins. We asked the question whether cytokinins affected nitrate reductase activity directly or through NO(3) (-), either by amplifying the effect of low endogenous NO(3) (-) levels, or by making NO(3) (-) available for induction from a metabolically inactive compartment. Nitrate...
متن کاملCinnamomin--a versatile type II ribosome-inactivating protein.
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a group of toxic proteins that can specifically act on the universally conserved sarcin/ricin domain (S/R domain) of the largest RNA in ribosome and thus irreversibly inactivate ribosome for protein synthesis. Cinnamomin is a multifunctional type II RIP isolated in our laboratory from the mature seeds of the camphor tree. This protein has been extensive...
متن کامل2.8-A crystal structure of a nontoxic type-II ribosome-inactivating protein, ebulin l.
Ebulin l is a type-II ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) isolated from the leaves of Sambucus ebulus L. As with other type-II RIP, ebulin is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of a toxic A chain and a galactoside-specific lectin B chain. A normal level of ribosome-inactivating N-glycosidase activity, characteristic of the A chain of type-II RIP, has been demonstrated for ebulin l. However...
