The aim of this work was to identify proteins specific for plant cell membranes which could then be used as unique markers. A crude membrane fraction was isolated from corn coleoptiles and separated on non-linear sucrose density gradients. Separation of endoplasmic reticulum (NADH-cytochrome c
The phosphohydrolase activity of a light microsomal fraction isolated from corn roots (Zea mays L. cv LG 55) was investigated. The fraction, which appears to be enriched in endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi membranes, has ATPase and pyrophosphatase activities that hydrolyze ATP and pyrophosphate at an
When dark-grown maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings were exposed to red light (R), Golgi-localized glucan synthetase activity in the mesocotyl began to decrease within 1 h, and fell by approx. 70% in 12 h. The response required at least 10(-2) μmol m(-2) R and saturated at 100 μmol m(-2). Far-red light
We present a comprehensive characterization of the nucleoside N-ribohydrolase (NRH) family in two model plants, Physcomitrella patens (PpNRH) and maize (Zea mays; ZmNRH), using in vitro and in planta approaches. We identified two NRH subclasses in the plant kingdom; one preferentially targets the
