cDNA sequence of an apple ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit.

Ribulose-1, 5-Bisphosphate Carboxylase/Oxygenase Gene Sequencing in Taxonomic Delineation of Padina Species in theNorthern Coast of the Persian Gulf, (IRAN)

Taxonomic study of the genus Padina (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) from the Persian Gulf coast was conducted based on morphology and molecular phylogenetic analyses using chloroplast encoded large subunit RuBisCo (rbcL) gene sequences. Detailed descriptions of each species found in this study are described. Several morphological characters, such as number of cell layers composing the thallus, pr...

Structure and expression of spinach leaf cDNA encoding ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activase.

Ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activase is a recently discovered enzyme that catalyzes the activation of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase ["rubisco"; ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase; 3-phospho-D-glycerate carboxy-lyase (dimerizing), EC 4.1.1.39] in vivo. Clones of rubisco activase cDNA were isolated immunologically from spinach (Spinacea oleracea L.) and Arabidopsis...

mRNA transcripts of several plant genes are polyadenylated at multiple sites in vivo.

We have analyzed the polyadenylation sites for the small subunit of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase and chlorophyll a/b binding protein genes of Petunia (Mitchell) and the bronze gene of Zea mays. Sequence analysis of multiple cDNA clones revealed that polyadenylation of the transcripts occurred at either 2 or 3 sites for all three groups of genes. In the examples where 3 polyadenylation site...

Studies on the assembly of large subunits of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase in isolated pea chloroplasts

Ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase consists of cytoplasmically synthesized "small" subunits and chloroplast-synthesized "large" subunits. Large subunits of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase synthesized in vivo or in organello can be recovered from intact chloroplasts in the form of two different complexes with sedimentation coefficients of 7S and 29S. About one-third to one-half of the large sub...

cDNA sequence for the ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase complex protein. A protein that accumulates in soybean leaves in response to fruit removal.
