Sucrose-mediated transcriptional regulation of sucrose symporter activity in the phloem.
A proton-sucrose symporter mediates the key step in carbon export from leaves of most plants. Sucrose transport activity and steady-state mRNA levels of BvSUT1, a sugar beet leaf sucrose symporter, are negatively regulated specifically by sucrose. Results reported here show that BvSUT1 mRNA was localized to companion cells of the leaf's vascular system, which supports its role in the systemic d...
متن کاملPhytochrome mediated regulation of sucrose phosphate synthase activity in maize.
The extractable activity of sucrose phosphate synthase was determined in etiolated seedlings of maize (Zea mays L.), soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.), and sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) following treatments of changing light quality. A 30-minute illumination of 30 microeinsteins per square meter per second white light produced a three-fold increase in sucrose phosphate synthase activity at 2 hou...
متن کاملCircadian Regulation of Sucrose Phosphate Synthase Activity
Sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), a key enzyme in sucrose biosynthesis, is regulated by protein phosphorylation and shows a circadian pattern of activity in tomato. SPS is most active in its dephosphorylated state, which normally coincides with daytime. Applying okadaic acid, a potent protein phosphatase inhibitor, prevents SPS activation. More interesting is that a brief treatment with cyclohe...
متن کاملTransport of sucrose, not hexose, in the phloem
Several lines of evidence indicate that glucose and fructose are essentially absent in mobile phloem sap. However, this paradigm has been called into question, especially but not entirely, with respect to species in the Ranunculaceae and Papaveraceae. In the experiments in question, phloem sap was obtained by detaching leaves and placing the cut ends of the petioles in an EDTA solution. More he...
متن کاملRegulation of sucrose-sucrose-fructosyltransferase in barley leaves.
The activity of sucrose-sucrose-fructosyltransferase (SST), a vacuolar enzyme strongly induced by light in excised leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), rapidly declined even in continuous light upon feeding of cycloheximide (CHI). The rate of decline was similar to that observed in light-treated leaves that were placed into darkness, in the presence or absence of CHI. The protease inhibitor l...
