Enzymes of deoxyribonucleotide and DNA biosynthesis, which are little known in plants, were studied in root tips of germinating broad beans (Vicia faba) and in fast-growing cultures of soybean cells (Glycine max). The plant cells contain a ribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate reductase which is detected in
CYTIDINE DEAMINASE (CDA) catalyzes the deamination of cytidine to uridine and ammonia in the catabolic route of C nucleotides. The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CDA gene family comprises nine members, one of which (AtCDA) was shown previously in vitro to encode an active CDA. A possible role in
The activity of cytidine 5'-diphosphate (CDP) choline: 1,2-diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) in developing soybean (Glycine max L. var Williams 82) seeds was 3 to 5 times higher in cotyledons grown at 20 degrees C than in those grown at 35 degrees C. Some characteristics of the
Microsome fractions from hypocotyls of dark-grown soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill) seedlings incorporated myo-inositol into phosphatidylinositol by an exchange reaction stimulated by Mn(2+) (optimum at 10 mm) and cytidine nucleotides (CMP = CDP approximately CTP) but not by Mg(2+) or nucleotides
Concentrations of cycloheximide as low as 3 mug/ml inhibited incorporation of labeled orotic acid or uridine into RNA cytidylic acid of soybean (Glycine max) hypocotyl sections. Even lower concentrations of this well known protein synthesis inhibitor interfered with conversion of labeled cytidine
