The formation of uridine diphosphate-glucuronic acid in plants. Uridine diphosphate-glucuronic acid pyrophosphorylase from barley seedlings.
UDP-glucuronic acid pyrophosphorylase was purified approximately 80-fold from barley seedlings by ammonium sulfate fractionation and column chromatography on DEAEcellulose and Sephadex G-100. The partially purified enzyme can be assayed radiochemically in either the forward or reverse direction and has K, values of 0.33 mM and 0.5 mM for n-glucuronic acid l-phosphate and UDP-D-glucuronic acid, ...
متن کاملDerivatives of Glucuronic Acid
The presence of glucuronic acid in the complex molecules of specific bacterial polysaccharides (1) has stimulated a study of certain derivatives of this important substance and its lactone, glucuron. These investigations have entailed the necessity of elaborating a satisfactory method for preparing both the acid and its lactone, and at the same time they have embraced a study of the comparative...
متن کاملCartilage Resorption in the Tibial Epiphyseal Plate of Growing Rats
An electron microscopic study of the tibial epiphyseal plates of growing rats reveals that the resorption of unmineralized and mineralized cartilage occurs by two different mechanisms. During resorption the unmineralized transverse cartilaginous walls between chondrocytes are invaded by capillary sprouts. At the resorption zone, numerous cytoplasmic processes derived primarily from the perivasc...
متن کاملParathyroid hormone-related peptide-depleted mice show abnormal epiphyseal cartilage development and altered endochondral bone formation
To elucidate the role of PTHrP in skeletal development, we examined the proximal tibial epiphysis and metaphysis of wild-type (PTHrP-normal) 18-19-d-old fetal mice and of chondrodystrophic litter mates homozygous for a disrupted PTHrP allele generated via homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells (PTHrP-depleted). In the PTHrP-normal epiphysis, immunocytochemistry showed PTHrP to be loca...
متن کاملDeletion of IFT80 Impairs Epiphyseal and Articular Cartilage Formation Due to Disruption of Chondrocyte Differentiation
Intraflagellar transport proteins (IFT) play important roles in cilia formation and organ development. Partial loss of IFT80 function leads Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (JATD) or short-rib polydactyly (SRP) syndrome type III, displaying narrow thoracic cavity and multiple cartilage anomalies. However, it is unknown how IFT80 regulates cartilage formation. To define the role and mechani...
