Ethylene-controlled Induction of Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase in Citrus Fruit Peel.
l-Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity is low in the external layers (flavedo) of intact mature grapefruit peel. Flavedo discs evince upon incubation increasing PAL activity and ethylene production. Light has no effect in enhancing PAL activity in discs. Exogenous ethylene stimulates PAL activity in the flavedo of intact mature grapefruits (half maximum stimulation at 15 ppm); such activi...
متن کاملEthylene-enhanced Synthesis of Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase in Pea Seedlings.
The effect of ethylene on the development of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity in segments excised from the epicotyl apex of pea seedling was studied. Although there was some increase in phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity in segments not treated with ethylene, a marked increase in phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity occurred in ethylene-treated tissues during the incubation. The induction...
متن کاملEthylene-induced Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase Activity in Carrot Roots.
Ethylene enhanced the activity of phenylalanine ammonialyase in carrot (Daucus carota L., var. "Nauty") root tissue. Slight increase in enzyme activity was exhibited by root discs incubated in ethylene-free air. It was probably due to the ethylene formed within the sliced tissue. Addition of ethylene to the air stream increased phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity and the total protein content ...
متن کاملYeast Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase
I?henyialanine ammonia-lyase from the yeast Rhodotorula gluiinis was purified by salt fractionations and Sephadex chromatography. Density gradient centrifugation and Sephadex chromatography indicated its molecular weight to be about 275,000. Enzymatic deamination of several ring-substituted phenylalanine analogues and n-phenylalanine was studied. While cinnamic acid, a product of deamination, a...
متن کاملFungal and Plant Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase
L-Phenylalanine is one of the essential amino acids that cannot be synthesized in mammals in adequate amounts to meet the requirements for protein synthesis. Fungi and plants are able to synthesize phenylalanine via the shikimic acid pathway. L-Phenylalanine, derived from the shikimic acid pathway, is used directly for protein synthesis in plants or metabolized through the phenylpropanoid pathw...
