Metabolism of cytokinin: deribosylation of cytokinin ribonucleoside by adenosine nucleosidase from wheat germ cells.
Adenosine nucleosidase (adenosine ribohydrolase, EC 3.2.2.7) which catalyzes the deribosylation of N(6)-(Delta(2)-isopentenyl)adenosine and adenosine to form the corresponding bases was partially purified from wheat germ. This enzyme (molecular weight 59,000 +/- 3,000) deribosylates the ribonucleosides at an optimum pH of 4.7 K(m) values for the cytokinin nucleoside and adenosine are 2.38 and 1...
متن کاملCharacteristics of fruit ripening in tomato mutant epi.
The characteristics of fruit ripening and expression of ripening-related genes were investigated in epi, an ethylene overproduction mutant of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). The epi produces apparently more ethylene than its wild type VFN8 at every stage of vegetative and fruit growth and ripening; compared to VFN8, the epi fruit showed higher CO2 evolution, faster descending of chlorop...
متن کاملComparison of Antioxidant Activity and Total Phenol Contents of some Date Seed Varieties from Iran
The genus Phoenix is one of the most widely cultivated groups of palms around the world. The aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity and total phenolic compounds of 14 different varieties of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L., Arecaceae) seed extracts with 5 solvents [water, methanol, methanol (50%), DMSO, and water: methanol: acetone: formic acid (20:40:40:0.1)]. Ferric redu...

متن کاملCytokinin activity increases stomatal density and transpiration rate in tomato
Previous studies on cytokinin (CK) and drought have suggested that the hormone has positive and negative effects on plant adaptation to restrictive conditions. This study examined the effect of CK on transpiration, stomatal activity, and response to drought in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants. Transgenic tomato plants overexpressing the Arabidopsis thaliana CK-degrading enzyme CK oxidase/de...
