The solubility of protein components in salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) and sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) caviar in distilled water, 5% (w/v) NaCl, 70% (v/v) ethanol at 65C, and 0.2% (w/v) NaOH was determined. The salt soluble proteins were the predominant fraction and constituted 84.2% of the recovered protein in salmon and 86.1% in sturgeon samples. The two most prominent protein fractions (1...

Mesembryanthemum crystallinum responds to salt stress by switching from C(3) photosynthesis to Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM). During this transition the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase) increases in soluble protein extracts from leaf tissue. We monitored CAM induction in plants irrigated with 0.5 molar NaCl for 5 days during the fourth, fifth, and sixth week after germ...

A cAMP-binding protein is found to be integrated into the inner mitochondrial membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae under normal conditions. It resists solubilization by high salt and chaotropic agents. The protein is, however, converted to a soluble form which then resides in the intermembrane space, when isolated mitochondria are incubated with low concentrations of calcium. Phosphol...

Linum usitatissimum L. is one of the economically important oilseed crops and salt stress is one of the major environmental challenges affecting several physiological processes in plants. The present investigation was carried out to study the effects of NaCl on some physiological and biochemical responses in two cultivars of L. usitatissimum. Twenty-one-day-old-plants were exposed to salt stres...

Lectins extracted from corn (Zea mays L.) kernel with Tris-HCl buffer pH 7.5 were isolated from the crude extract by affinity chromatography on Sepharose 6B-N-acetyl-d-galactosamine and Sepharose 6B-methylalpha-d-mannoside, and also by lectin affinity chromatography using concanavalin A and Lens culinaris lectin as ligands. According to preferential monosaccharide specificity, salt-soluble lect...

Salt induces aggregation of large chromatin fragments maximally at 150-200 mM NaCl. The soluble fragments are depleted of H1 histones while the aggregated fragments are enriched. H1 histones did not equilibrate between the soluble and insoluble chromatin fractions when they were recycled through the process of salt-induced aggregation. The chromatin fragments that resisted aggregation retained ...
