Purine Nucleoside Transport in Petunia Pollen Is an Active, Carrier-Mediated System Not Sensitive to Nitrobenzylthioinosine and Not Renewed during Pollen Tube Growth.
Adenosine and guanosine are transported into Petunia hybrida pollen by a saturable, carrier-mediated mechanism. The energy poisons carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone, 2,4-dinitrophenol, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide all inhibit uptake, suggesting an energy coupled (active) transport process. Transport takes place against a concentration gradient...
متن کاملPyrimidine nucleoside uptake by petunia pollen: specificity and inhibitor studies on the carrier-mediated transport.
Transport of pyrimidine nucleosides into germinating Petunia hybrida pollen is carrier-mediated, and, except for thymidine, is inhibited by the energy poisons N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone. Kinetic studies with analogs deoxyuridine and 5-bromodeoxyuridine show that they too are taken up fast...
متن کاملThe 5'-untranslated region of the ntp303 gene strongly enhances translation during pollen tube growth, but not during pollen maturation.
Transcripts of the ntp303 gene accumulate abundantly throughout pollen development, whereas the protein only accumulates to detectable levels after pollen germination. In an attempt to explain the divergence in the accumulation profiles of the mRNA and the protein, we investigated the role of the untranslated regions (UTRs) in enhancing ntp303 translation during the transition from developing t...
متن کاملPiSCP1 and PiCDPK2 Localize to Peroxisomes and Are Involved in Pollen Tube Growth in Petunia Inflata
Petunia inflata small CDPK-interacting protein 1 (PiSCP1) was identified as a pollen expressed PiCDPK1 interacting protein using the yeast two hybrid system and the interaction confirmed using pull-down and phosphorylation assays. PiSCP1 is pollen specific and shares amino acid homology with uncharacterized proteins from diverse species of higher plants, but no protein of known function. Expres...
متن کاملGibberellin regulates pollen viability and pollen tube growth in rice.
Gibberellins (GAs) play many biological roles in higher plants. We collected and performed genetic analysis on rice (Oryza sativa) GA-related mutants, including GA-deficient and GA-insensitive mutants. Genetic analysis of the mutants revealed that rice GA-deficient mutations are not transmitted as Mendelian traits to the next generation following self-pollination of F1 heterozygous plants, alth...
