Role of sucrose-phosphate synthase in partitioning of carbon in leaves.
Variations in leaf starch accumulation were observed among four species (wheat [Triticum aestivum L.], soybean [Glycine max L. Merr.], tobacco [Nicotiana tabacum L.], and red beet [Beta vulgaris L.]), nine peanut (Arachis hypogea L.) cultivars, and two specific peanut genotypes grown under different nutritional regimes. Among the genotypes tested, the activity of sucrose phosphate synthase was ...
متن کاملLight/Dark profiles of sucrose phosphate synthase, sucrose synthase, and Acid invertase in leaves of sugar beets.
The activity of sucrose phosphate synthase, sucrose synthase, and acid invertase was monitored in 1- to 2-month-old sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) leaves. Sugar beet leaves achieve full laminar length in 13 days. Therefore, leaves were harvested at 2-day intervals for 15 days. Sucrose phosphate synthase activity was not detectable for 6 days in the dark-grown leaves. Once activity was measurable...
متن کاملRole and Regulation of Sucrose-phosphate Synthase in Higher Plants.
Sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS; E.C. 2.4.1.14) is the plant enzyme thought to play a major role in sucrose biosynthesis. In photosynthetic and nonphotosynthetic tissues, SPS is regulated by metabolites and by reversible protein phosphorylation. In leaves, phosphorylation modulates SPS activity in response to light/dark signals and end-product accumulation. SPS is phosphorylated on multiple ser...
متن کاملElevated sucrose-phosphate synthase activity in
Constitutive over-expression of a maize sucrosephosphate synthase (SPS) gene in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) had major effects on leaf carbohydrate budgets with consequences for whole plant development. Transgenic tobacco plants ̄owered earlier and had greater ̄ower numbers than wild-type plants. These changes were not linked to modi®ed source leaf carbon assimilation or carbon export, although ...
متن کاملSucrose phosphate synthase and sucrose accumulation at low temperature.
The influence of growth temperature on the free sugar and sucrose phosphate synthase content and activity of spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaf tissue was studied. When plants were grown at 25 degrees C for 3 weeks and then transferred to a constant 5 degrees C, sucrose, glucose, and fructose accumulated to high levels during a 14-d period. Predawn sugar levels increased from 14- to 20-fold over ...
