Isolation of spinach leaf peroxisomes in 0.25 molar sucrose solution by percoll density gradient centrifugation.
A procedure for isolating spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf peroxisomes in 0.25 molar sucrose solution by Percoll density gradient centrifugation followed by removal of the Percoll by washing and centrifugation was established. The preparation contains more than 90% peroxisomes as intact organelles with no detectable chlorophyll or cytochrome oxidase contamination. The peroxisomes are stable ...
متن کاملOxidation of formate by peroxisomes and mitochondria from spinach leaves.
1. Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf extracts catalyse the oxidation of formate to CO(2). 2. Two enzymic systems are responsible for this oxidation, the peroxidatic action of catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) and NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.2). 3. Formate dehydrogenase is mainly, if not exclusively, located in the mitochondria. This enzyme has a pH optimum of 6-6.5 and a K(m) for forma...
متن کاملComparison with Translocators from Spinach Chloroplasts and Pea Leaf Mitochondria
The kinetic properties of the adenosine 5’-diphosphate/adenosine 5’-triphosphate (ADP/ATP) translocator from pea (Pisum sativum l.) root plastids were determined by silicone oi l filtering centrifugation and compared with those of spinach (Spinacia oleracea 1.) chloroplasts and pea leaf mitochondria. In addition, the ADP/ATP transporting activities from the above organelles were reconstituted i...
متن کاملPeroxisomes from spinach leaves containing enzymes related to glycolate metabolism.
Microbodies, designated as peroxisomes because of their enzyme complement, have been isolated from spinach leaves. After grinding leaves in 0.5 M sucrose, the peroxisomes were removed with the broken chloroplast fraction by differential centrifugation. During sucrose density gradient centrifugation, the peroxisomes banded in about 1.9 M sucrose and were separated from mitochondria and chloropla...
متن کاملChanges in canine neutrophil function(s) following cellular isolation by Percoll gradient centrifugation or isotonic lysis.
Analysis of cellular effector function(s) often requires their isolation from other cellular types. Cell separatory techniques could mask, or select out, clinically important functional lesions. We examined differences in canine peripheral blood neutrophil functions, i.e. migration and H202 production, following two commonly used cell separation techniques: isotonic lysis or density gradient (P...
