The levels of glucose, sugar phosphates, and adenosine phosphates were determined in primary leaves of intact bean plants during normal senescence and compared to leaves in which senescence was delayed by application of benzyladenine (BA). In both cases there was a rise with time in the levels of glucose 1-phosphate, glucose 6-phosphate, and fructose 6-phosphate, and a decline in 2-phosphoglyce...

Rabbits were immunized with either RNA polymerase I or poly(A) polymerase that had been purified to apparent homogeneity and was devoid of nucleic acids. Sera from rabbits thus immunized were screened for antibodies against nucleic acids. All seven rabbits injected with RNA polymerase I but none of the four rabbits immunized with poly(A) polymerase produced anti-nucleic acid antibodies. Anti-RN...

We present new time-resolved powder diffraction data measured in situ during the hydrothermal crystallisation of two families of crystalline inorganic materials. In the first study, we have used time-resolved energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) to follow the formation of zeolitic zinc phosphates from amine phosphates and zinc oxide in acidic solutions at 60-150 degrees C. The advantage ...

The ability of cholinergic agonists to activate phospholipase C in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells was examined by assaying the production of inositol phosphates in cells prelabeled with [3H]inositol. We found that both nicotinic and muscarinic agonists increased the accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates (mainly inositol monophosphate) and that the effects mediated by the two types of recepto...

The level of inositol phosphates was measured in rat hepatocytes treated with 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (menadione) or tert-butyl hydroperoxide, which cause Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores and an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. Although neither agent produced any apparent changes in the resting level of inositol phosphates, pretreatment of hepatocytes with either me...

Polyprenyl phosphates, as well as polyprenyl alcohols bearing different isopentenyl C(5) units, have been synthesized. The pH range of spontaneous vesicle formation of polyprenyl phosphates with or without polyprenyl alcohols was defined by fluorescence microscopy. A variety of the acyclic or monocyclic polyprenyl phosphates studied formed stable vesicles in water over a wide range of pHs, and ...

Rhizosphere is a bio–influenced zone of soil where the interaction microorganism and plant roots occurred tailored by activity enzymes. The enzymes depends largely on physical chemical characteristics environment. Experiment was carried out to examine phosphomonoesterases in rhizosphere cassava planted two sites (Samaru Minjibir) located savanna ecologies Nigeria. Soils from were sampled each t...

At pH 7.0, ZOO, both in the absence and presence of phosphates, the time course of n-butyl isocyanide binding to deoxyhemoglobin is biphasic, and the two kinetic phases can be isolated spectrally and identified with the properties of the a and /3 chains. Under all conditions at this pH, both the association and dissociation rate constants of the p chains are at least 10 times larger than the co...
