Peptidohydrolases of Soybean Root Nodules
Nodule extracts prepared from Glycine max var Woodworth possessed endopeptidase, aminoptidase, and carboxypeptidase actiities. Three distinct endopeptidase activities could be resolved by disc-gel electrophoresis at pH 8.8. According to their order of increasing electrophoretic mobility, the first of these enzymes hydrolyzed azocasein and n-benzoyl-LLeu-p8-naphthylamide, while the second hydrol...
متن کاملAscorbate peroxidase from soybean root nodules.
AP is involved in the destruction of harmful H202. In soybean (Glycine m a x [LI Merr.) root nodules, AP initiates a sequence of coupled redox reactions (ascorbate-GSH pathway) that results in peroxide scavenging (Dalton et al., 1986). The ascorbate-GSH pathway occurs in other plant tissues and has been extensively studied in chloroplasts where photoreducing conditions lead to the production of...
متن کاملPhysiological roles of glutathione s-transferases in soybean root nodules.
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze the conjugation of toxic xenobiotics and oxidatively produced compounds to reduced glutathione, which facilitates their metabolism, sequestration, or removal. We report here that soybean (Glycine max) root nodules contain at least 14 forms of GST, with GST9 being most prevalent, as measured by both real-time reverse transcri...
متن کاملAsparaginase and asparagine transaminase in soybean leaves and root nodules.
Asparaginase activity (</=1 mumol/mg protein . hr) was detected in extracts of soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) leaf blades, but, even after efforts to optimize extraction and assay of the enzyme, specific activity was not sufficient to metabolize the estimated amount of asparagine translocated to leaves. Asparagine transaminase activity with glyoxylate or pyruvate was at least 52 and 62 nmol/m...
متن کاملShort-term metabolic responses of soybean root nodules to nitrate.
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) plants exposed to 10 mM KNO(3) for a 4 d period were used to test the correlation between nitrogenase activity, gene expression and sucrose metabolism. Nitrate caused the down-regulation of sucrose synthase (SS) transcripts within 1 d, although a decline in nodule SS activity and an increase in nodule sucrose content only occurred after 3-4 d. In a second experime...
