Catabolism of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid to CO(2) by Etiolated Barley Leaves.
The in vivo oxidation of the C(4) and C(5) of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) to CO(2) has been studied in etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var. Larker) leaves in darkness. The rate of (14)CO(2) evolution from leaves fed [4-(14)C]ALA is strongly inhibited by aminooxyacetate, anaerobiosis, and malonate. The rate of (14)CO(2) evolution from leaves fed [5-(14)C]ALA is also inhibited by these treat...
متن کاملCatabolism of [1-C]levulinic Acid by etiolated and greening barley leaves.
Levulinic acid (LA), a competitive inhibitor of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.24), has been used extensively in the study of ALA formation during greening. When [1-(14)C]LA is administered to etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var. Larker) shoots in darkness, (14)CO(2) is evolved. This process is accelerated when such tissues are incubated with 2 millimolar ALA or plac...
متن کاملRapid dark repression of 5-aminolevulinic acid synthesis in green barley leaves.
In photosynthetic organisms chlorophyll and heme biosynthesis is tightly regulated at various levels in response to environmental adaptation and plant development. The formation of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is the key regulatory step and provides adequate amounts of the common precursor molecule for the Mg and Fe branches of tetrapyrrole biosynthesis. Pathway control prevents accumulation of ...
متن کاملThe Conversion of Photoinactive Protochlorophyllide(633) to Phototransformable Protochlorophyllide(650) in Etiolated Bean Leaves Treated with delta-Aminolevulinic Acid.
The relationship of phototransformable protochlorophyllide to photoinactive protochlorophyllide has been studied in primary leaves of 7- to 9-day-old dark-grown bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Red Kidney) seedlings. Various levels of photoinactive protochlorophyllide, absorbing at 633 nm in vivo, were induced by administering delta-aminolevulinic acid to the leaves in darkness. Phototransforma...
متن کاملThe effects of levulinic Acid and 4,6-dioxoheptanoic Acid on the metabolism of etiolated and greening barley leaves.
Application of levulinic acid (LA), a competitive inhibitor of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) dehydratase, to greening plant tissues causes ALA to accumulate at the expense of chlorophyll. 4,6-Dioxoheptanoic acid (DA), which has been reported to be an effective inhibitor of this enzyme in animal systems, has a similar but more powerful effect on ALA and chlorophyll metabolism in greening leave...
