Polysome Formation in Light-sensitive Common Purslane Seeds.
Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) seeds show light-controlled dormancy. Ribosome profiles from dark-incubated seeds consist of 22 to 26% polysomes. Light induces germination and stimulates polysome formation during the 12-hour lag period preceding radicle protrusion. Polysome levels increase to 29, 35, and 41% with exposure to 3, 6, and 9 hours of light, respectively. Although polysomes f...
متن کاملPolysome Formation in Light-controlled Dormancy.
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) seeds var. Grand Rapids could be maintained many weeks in the dark without germination. Following illumination with white light, a gradual increase in polyribosome population up to the time of germination was demonstrated by sucrose gradient centrifugation. Polysomes could not be detected in imbibed seeds maintained continuously in the dark. Thus, polysome formation and...
متن کاملProtein Synthesis in Imbibed Seeds. Ii. Polysome Formation during Imbibition.
Ribosomes prepared from dry wheat embryos or peanut cotyledons show little or no capacity to incorporate 14C-amino acids into protein. In contrast, preparations from imbibed embryos or cotyledons are active (1). In the presence of polyuridylic acid, the ribosome system of dry seed is as active as that from imbibed seed in catalyzing 14C-phenylalanine incorporation (1). These results suggested t...
متن کاملProtein Synthesis in Imbibed Seeds III. Kinetics of Amino Acid Incorporation Ribosome Activation, and Polysome Formation.
The kinetics of development of protein-synthesizing capacity in the imbibing wheat embryo, were studied both in vivo and in vitro. During the first 30 minutes of imbibition protein-synthesizing capacity rises rapidly, lagging about 10 minutes behind water uptake. This rise in synthesizing capacity is accompanied by an increase in polysome content. As imbibition continues, both protein-synthesiz...
متن کاملRed-Far Red Reversible Effect on Polysome Formation in the Embryos of Pinus thunbergii Seeds.
Polysome formation in the embryos of Pinus thunbergii seeds was studied. Free ribosomes were dissociated to smaller subunits in a high salt buffer, but the complex ribosomes were not. The free ribosomes could be distinguished from monomer ribosomes derived from polysomes after RNase treatment. The monomer ribosomes present in the embryos of the dark-imbibed seeds were predominantly free ribosom...
