Asymmetric distribution of acetylcholinesterase in gravistimulated maize seedlings.
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity has previously been studied by this laboratory and shown to occur at the interface between the stele and cortex of the mesocotyl of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings. In this work we studied the distribution of AChE activity in 5-d-old maize seedlings following a gravity stimulus. After the stimulus, we found an asymmetric distribution of the enzyme in the coleo...
متن کاملThe sterol esters of maize seedlings.
1. The composition of the sterol ester fraction of the shoot, root, scutellum and endosperm of 10-day-old maize seedlings was investigated. 2. The scutellum and endosperm together contain 80% of the sterol ester of the seedling. 3. beta-Sitosteryl linoleate is the major sterol ester of the scutellum and endosperm. 4. beta-Sitosteryl and stigmasteryl palmitate, palmitoleate, oleate and linoleate...
متن کاملTransient dissociation of polyribosomes and concurrent recruitment of calreticulin and calmodulin transcripts in gravistimulated maize pulvini.
The dynamics of polyribosome abundance were studied in gravistimulated maize (Zea mays) stem pulvini. During the initial 15 min of gravistimulation, the amount of large polyribosomes transiently decreased. The transient decrease in polyribosome levels was accompanied by a transient decrease in polyribosome-associated mRNA. After 30 min of gravistimulation, the levels of polyribosomes and the am...
متن کاملAsymmetric distribution of glucose and indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol in geostimulated Zea mays seedlings.
Indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol occurs in both the kernel and vegetative shoot of germinating Zea mays seedlings. The effect of a gravitational stimulus on the transport of [3H]-5-indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol and [U-14C]-D-glucose from the kernel to the seedling shoot was studied. Both labeled glucose and labeled indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol become asymmetrically distributed in the mesocotyl cor...
متن کاملAcetylcholinesterase of mammalian neuromuscular junctions: presence of tailed asymmetric acetylcholinesterase in synaptic basal lamina and sarcolemma.
A sarcolemma-rich fraction can be isolated after subcellular fractionation of mouse intercostal muscles by sedimentation on a discontinuous sucrose gradient. The quantitative recovery of the acetylcholine receptor in this fraction is about 50%, which indicates the presence of a high proportion of postsynaptic membranes. Acetylcholinesterase (AcChoEase; EC 3.1.1.7) is found mainly in three diffe...
