Phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis by CDP-ethanolamine:1,2-diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) from the endoplasmic reticulum of castor bean (Ricinus communis L. var. Hale) endosperm was characterized. The Michaelis-Menten constant of the enzyme for CDP-ethanolamine was approximately 8.0 micromolar. The pH optimum was 6.5 and a divalent cation was an absolute requirement ...
متن کاملPhosphatidylcholine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Three pathways for phosphatidylcholine synthesis were assayed in castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) endosperm. Phosphatidylethanolamine: S-adenosylmethionine methyl transferase occurred predominantly in the endoplasmic reticulum fraction, but some activity appeared in the mitochondria. Phosphorylcholine glyceride transferase occurred exclusively in the endoplasmic reticulum. The phosphory...
متن کاملPhosphatidylserine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Phosphatidylserine synthesis by the endoplasmic reticulum fraction isolated from castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) endosperm was assayed by measuring the incorporation of (14)C-l-serine into chloroform-soluble material. Both phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine were identified as products. The incorporation required calcium ions and showed an optimum pH of 7.8 in 2 mm CaCl(2)....
متن کاملHydrolases in vacuoles from castor bean endosperm.
Vacuoles were prepared from endosperm tissue of 4-day-old castor bean seedlings (Ricinus communis var. Hale) and purified on a stepped sucrose gradient. It was shown by assays of marker enzymes that there was only trace contamination of the final preparation by other organelles (mitochondria, glyoxysomes, nuclei, spherosomes, and plastids) and by cytoplasmic components. Hydrolytic enzymes (acid...
متن کاملProteases and Peptidases of Castor Bean Endosperm
The endosperm of castor bean seeds (Rkinus comunuis L.) contains two -SH-dependent amptidases, one hydrolyzing L-leucine-,Bnaphthylamide optimally at pH 7.0, and the other hydrolyzing L-proline,B-naphthylamide optimally at pH 7.5. After germination the endosprm contains in addition an -SH-dependent hemoglobin protease, a serinedependent carboxypeptidase, and at least two -SH-dependent enzymes h...
