An analysis of the subunit structure of the crystalloid protein complex from castor bean endosperm.
Chromatographic and electrophoretic studies have shown that the subunits of the crystalloid protein, isolated from mature castor bean (Ricinus communis L. cv Hale) seed endosperm protein bodies, are heterogeneous with molecular weights in the range 49 to 53.5 kilodaltons (kD), and are quantitatively in unequal amounts. Each subunit comprises an alphabeta polypeptide pair which are reduced by 2-...
متن کاملLectins 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 کاملProteases and Peptidases of Castor Bean Endosperm
The endosperm of castor bean seeds (Rkinus comunuis L.) contains two -SH-dependent amptidases, one hydrolyzing L-leucine-,Bnaphthylamide optimally at pH 7.0, and the other hydrolyzing L-proline,B-naphthylamide optimally at pH 7.5. After germination the endosprm contains in addition an -SH-dependent hemoglobin protease, a serinedependent carboxypeptidase, and at least two -SH-dependent enzymes h...
متن کاملPhosphatidylcholine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Three pathways for phosphatidylcholine synthesis were assayed in castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) endosperm. Phosphatidylethanolamine: S-adenosylmethionine methyl transferase occurred predominantly in the endoplasmic reticulum fraction, but some activity appeared in the mitochondria. Phosphorylcholine glyceride transferase occurred exclusively in the endoplasmic reticulum. The phosphory...
متن کاملPyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex from Germinating Castor Bean
Subceliular organelles from castor bean (Ricuns commnwuis) endosperm were isolated on discontinuous sucrose gradients from germinating seeds which were 1 to 7 days postbit o. Marker enzyme activities of the organeUes were measured (fumarase, catalase, and triose phosphate isomerase) and the homogeneity of the organelle fractions was examined by electron microscopy. Pyrumate dehydrogenase comple...
