Membrane Organization of the Desiccation-Tolerant Moss Tortula ruralis in Dehydrated States.

Membrane organization of the desiccation tolerant moss Tortula ruralis was studied in several intensely dehydrated states (75% relative humidity [RH], 90% RH, plasmolysis in molar salt, freezing to -20 degrees C) by (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance and ultrastructural analyses. Both methods revealed that even at 75% RH (-400 bars), the moss cellular membranes retained extended phospholipid bila...

Polyribosomes Conserved during Desiccation of the Moss Tortula ruralis Are Active.

During desiccation of the moss Tortula ruralis (Hedw.) (Gaertn, Meyer and Scherb) polyribosomes are conserved. On rehydration, protein synthesis is rapidly resumed. In the presence of protein synthesis initiation inhibitors ribosome run-off from the conserved polyribosomes takes place, confirming that these retain their activity as intact structures during desiccation.
