Changes in the activity and mRNA of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase during tracheary element differentiation in zinnia.
Changes in the enzymatic activity of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) and in the expression of a gene for CAD during tracheary element (TE) differentiation were investigated in cultures of single cells isolated from the mesophyll of zinnia (Zinnia elegans). In cultures in which TE differentiation was induced (TE-inductive cultures), CAD activity increased from h 36 after the start of cultur...
متن کاملProteinase Activity during Tracheary Element Differentiation in Zinnia Mesophyll Cultures.
The zinnia (Zinnia elegans) mesophyll cell culture tracheary element (TE) system was used to study proteinases active during developmentally programmed cell death. Substrate-impregnated gels and single-cell assays revealed high levels of proteinase activity in differentiating TEs compared with undifferentiated cultured cells and expanding leaves. Three proteinases (145, 28, and 24 kD) were excl...
متن کاملInvolvement of phytosulfokine in the attenuation of stress response during the transdifferentiation of zinnia mesophyll cells into tracheary elements.
Phytosulfokine (PSK) is a sulfated peptide hormone required for the proliferation and differentiation of plant cells. Here, we characterize the physiological roles of PSK in transdifferentiation of isolated mesophyll cells of zinnia (Zinnia elegans 'Canary Bird') into tracheary elements (TEs). Transcripts for a zinnia PSK precursor gene, ZePSK1, show two peaks of expression during TE differenti...
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 کاملImaging cell wall architecture in single Zinnia elegans tracheary elements.
The chemical and structural organization of the plant cell wall was examined in Zinnia elegans tracheary elements (TEs), which specialize by developing prominent secondary wall thickenings underlying the primary wall during xylogenesis in vitro. Three imaging platforms were used in conjunction with chemical extraction of wall components to investigate the composition and structure of single Zin...
