Lectins in castor bean seedlings.
The amounts of the two lectins (ricin and Ricinus communis agglutinin) in tissues of castor bean seedlings were followed during germination and early growth. For measurement, lectins in extracts were separately eluted from Sepharose columns; an antibody to the agglutinin was also used to detect the lectins by immunodiffusion. The endosperm of the dry seed contains 3.5 mg total lectin (5.6% of t...
متن کاملAmino Acid transport in germinating castor bean seedlings.
During germination and early growth of the castor bean (Ricinus communis) nitrogenous constituents from the endosperm are transferred via the cotyledons to the growing embryo. Exudate collected from the cut hypocotyl of 4-day seedlings contained 120 millimolar soluble amino nitrogen and glutamine was the predominant amino acid present, comprising 35 to 40% of the total amino nitrogen. To determ...
متن کاملGlycoproteins in the matrix of glyoxysomes in endosperm of castor bean seedlings.
The matrix of glyoxysomes from endosperm of castor bean (Ricinus communis cv Hale) seedlings has been analyzed for the presence of glycosylated proteins. Glyoxysome preparations were monitored for organelle homogeneity by electron microscopy and enzyme marker activities. Glyoxysomes were essentially free of endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and protein bodies. At least eight glyoxysomal matr...
متن کاملProtein Bodies from the Endosperm of Castor Bean: Subfractionation, Protein Components, Lectins, and Changes during Germination.
Protein bodies from the storage endosperm of dry castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) were isolated by successive nonaqueous linear density gradient centrifugation. The isolated protein bodies were lysed by the addition of water, and the various structural components of the organelles were separated by sucrose gradient centrifugation. The matrix protein remained at the top of the gradient while th...
متن کاملInduction of glyconeogenic enzymes by gibberellin a(3) in endosperm of castor bean seedlings.
Seedlings of castor bean (Ricinus communis cv. Hale) were exposed to gibberellin A(3) (GA(3)) (100 micromolar) for periods up to 20 hours. Endosperm homogenates were fractionated on linear sucrose gradients and enzymes in mitochondria, glyoxysome, and cytosol fractions were assayed. Gibberellin treatment resulted in increases in the activities of enzymes in all three compartments. There were al...
