Linoleate and alpha-linolenate synthesis by isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplasts.

چکیده
Diacylgalactosylglycerol synthesis was a prerequisite for the incorporation of [1-14C]-acetate into linoleate and alpha-linolenate of isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplasts. Oleate at position 1 of diacylgalactosylglycerol was desaturated to linoleate and alpha-linolenate both in the light and in the dark. Some desaturation of palmitate was also observed after prolonged incubations.

Activity of phosphatidylcholine-transfer protein from spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaves with mitochondria and chloroplasts.
A low-molecular-weight protein catalysing the transfer of phosphatidylcholine from liposomes to mitochondria and chloroplasts has been isolated from spinach (Spinacia oleracea) by chromatography on Sephadex G-75.
متن کاملLocalization of carbamoylphosphate synthetase and aspartate carbamoyltransferase in chloroplasts.
The localization of carbamoylphosphate synthetase (CPSase) and aspartate carbamoyltransferase (ACTase), the first two enzymes of the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway, in chloroplasts was investigated. In dark-grown radish (Raphanus sativus) seedlings, light induced a prominent increase in CPSase activity, but had little effect on ACTase activity. Both enzymes were found in chloroplasts isolated ...
متن کاملPhotoreduction of sulfur dioxide by spinach leaves and isolated spinach chloroplasts.
Labeled sulfur dioxide was found to be extensively absorbed by spinach (Spinacea oleracea L.) leaves. Labeled sulfides detected in leaf blades following fumigations with sulfur dioxide in light indicated that photoreduction of sulfur dioxide had occurred. Measurable proportions of this labeled sulfur was localized within the chloroplast fraction. Suspensions of isolated chloroplasts supplied wi...
متن کاملInhibition of chloroplast electron transport reactions by trifluralin and diallate.
The herbicides trifluralin (alpha,alpha,alpha-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-N, N-dipropyl-p-toluidine) and diallate (S-[2,3-dichloroallyl] diisopropylthiocarbamate) inhibit electron transport, ATP synthesis, and cytochrome f reduction by isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts. Both compounds inhibit noncyclic electron transport from H(2)O to ferricyanide more than 90% in coupled chloropla...
متن کاملDe Novo Maltotriose Biosynthesis from the Reducing End by Spinacia oleracea L. Chloroplasts.
The distribution of (14)C in the various glucose residues of maltotriose was studied as a function of time of photosynthesis of isolated chloroplasts of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) using (14)CO(2). The distribution of label showed that the reducing-end glucose residue was labeled first and the label subsequently distributed to the second and third glucose residues at approximately equal rate...
