Enzymes of ethylene biosynthesis.
The properties of enzymes involved in ethylene biosynthesis are reviewed and progress toward the purification of these enzymes is described. The enzyme whose activity usually limits ethylene biosynthesis is 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase. Even though its level in plants is extremely low, it has now been purified from several sources. The enzyme that converts ACC to ethylene do...
متن کاملThe receptor for the fungal elicitor ethylene-inducing xylanase is a member of a resistance-like gene family in tomato.
An ethylene-inducing xylanase (EIX) is a potent elicitor of plant defense responses in specific cultivars of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). The LeEix locus in tomatoes was characterized by map-based cloning, which led to the identification of a novel gene cluster from which two members (LeEix1 and LeEix2) were isolated. Similar to the tomato Ve resistance gene...
متن کاملEthylene biosynthesis and signaling networks.
Despite its simple two-carbon structure, the olefin ethylene is a potent modulator of plant growth and development (Ecker, 1995). The plant hormone ethylene is involved in many aspects of the plant life cycle, including seed germination, root hair development, root nodulation, flower senescence, abscission, and fruit ripening (reviewed in Johnson and Ecker, 1998). The production of ethylene is ...
متن کاملEthylene biosynthesis in fruit tissues.
Tracer studies with avocado tissues indicate that methionine is converted to ethylene at stages of the climacteric rise and the climacteric peak, but not at the preclimacteric stage. The results suggest that the control of ethylene biosynthesis is at a step after methionine is synthesized. The endogenous content of methionine was found to be so low that methionine must be actively turned over f...
متن کاملEthylene biosynthesis in Botrytis cinerea.
Ethylene is often released during plant pathogenesis. Enhanced ethylene biosynthesis by the attacked plant, and formation of ethylene by the attacking pathogen may be involved. We defined the biosynthetic pathway of ethylene in the pathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea, and characterized the conditions that affect ethylene production in vitro. During the first 48 h of culture the fungus uses methi...
