Purification and Characterization of Acid Phosphatase from a Germinating Black Gram (vigna Mungo L.) Seedling
نویسندگان
چکیده
An acid phosphatase has been isolated and purified from an extract of a germinating black gram seedling. The method was accomplished by gel filtration of a germinating black gram seedling crude extract on sephadex G-75 followed by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose. The acid phosphatase gave a single band on SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the acid phosphatase determined by SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis was estimated to be 25 kDa. The purified enzyme showed maximum activity at pH 5 and at temperature of 55°C. Mg2+, Zn2+ and EDTA had an inhibitory effect on the activity of the acid phosphatase. Black gram seedling acid phosphatase was activated by K+, Cu2+ and Ba2+. The Km value of the enzyme was found to be 0.49 mM for pNPP as substrate.

Purification and Characterization of Two Acid Phosphatases from Germinating Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Seed
The maximum acid phosphatasic activity was detected in peanut seed at the 5th day of germination. At least, two acid phosphatases were purified by successive chromatography separations on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, CM-Sepharose CL-6B, Sephacryl S-100 HR, and Phenyl-Sepharose HP to apparent homogeneity from five days old cotyledon of peanut after germination. These isoenzymes, designated peanut cotyl...

The effect of seaweed liquid fertilizer (SLF) of Sargassum myriocystum on germination, growth and biochemical constituents of Vigna mungo was studied. Different concentrations (5%, 10%, 25%, 50% and 75%) of SLF were prepared using distilled water. A total of 100 seeds were soaked for each SLF concentration for a 24-h period and were later placed in various Petri plates and watered regularly. Wa...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of various processing treatments (soaking, pressure cooking and germination) on two newly developed cultivars of each green gram (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilezek) and black gram (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper). The present study revealed higher nutrient content in black gram than in green gram. The antinutritional factors were found to be higher in black gr...
