Hydrogen peroxide-dependent oxidation of flavonols by intact spinach chloroplasts.
Externally added quercetin (100 micromolar) was oxidized by intact spinach chloroplasts at a rate of 30 micromoles per mg chlorophyll per hour in the presence of 100 micromolar H(2)O(2). The oxidation rate was increased by about 20% in a hypotonic reaction mixture. The thylakoid fraction also oxidized the flavonol in the presence of H(2)O(2), and the rate was about 25% of that by intact chlorop...
متن کاملLight-dependent reduction of hydrogen peroxide by ruptured pea chloroplasts.
Ruptured pea (Pisum sativum cv. Massey Gem) chloroplasts exhibited ascorbate peroxidase activity as determined by H(2)O(2)-dependent oxidation of ascorbate and ascorbate-dependent reduction of H(2)O(2). The ratio of ascorbate peroxidase to NADP-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was constant during repeated washing of isolated chloroplasts. This indicates that the ascorbate perox...
متن کاملPhotosynthetic enhancement studied in intact spinach chloroplasts.
The Emerson enhancement effect was evaluated in the intact spinach (Spinacia oleracea var. Long Standing Bloomsdale) chloroplast by monitoring the uptake of (14)CO(2) during illumination by 640 nm and 720 nm lights. Low levels (about 10 mum) of fructose 1,6-diphosphate, ribose 5-phosphate, and glycerate 3-phosphate stimulated the rate of photosynthesis and abolished enhancement values observed ...
متن کاملEffect of antimycin a on photosynthesis of intact spinach chloroplasts.
Low concentrations (0.5-10 mum) of antimycin A were shown to increase the rate of CO(2) fixation, O(2) evolution and inorganic phosphate esterification in intact spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplasts. The increase was highest when the light intensity was saturating. Stimulation was independent of the bicarbonate concentration and was accompanied by an enhancement in the synthesis of glycerat...
متن کاملCharacterization of elemental sulfur in isolated intact spinach chloroplasts.
Incubation of intact spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts in the presence of (35)SO(4) (2-) resulted in the light-dependent formation of a chloroform-soluble sulfur-containing compound distinct from sulfolipid. We have identified this compound as the most stable form (S(8)) of elemental sulfur (S(0), valence state for S = O) by mass spectrometry. It is possible that elemental sulfur (S(0...
