The aim of this work was to study the effect of elevated fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-bisP) levels on carbohydrate metabolism in leaves in the dark. In transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) lines containing mammalian 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase activity there is an inverse relationship
The aim of this work was to investigate the role of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru 2,6-P2) during photosynthesis. The level of Fru 2,6-P2 in tobacco plants was elevated by the introduction of a modified mammalian gene encoding 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase (6-PF-2-K). Estimates of the metabolite control
The aim of this work was to examine the role of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) in photosynthetic carbon partitioning. The amount of Fru-2,6-P2 in leaves of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun) was reduced by introduction of a modified mammalian gene encoding a functional
The role of pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (PFP) in developing leaves was studied using wild-type tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and transformants with decreased expression of PFP. (i) The leaf base, which is the youngest and most actively growing area of the leaf, had
The Calvin cycle is the initial pathway of photosynthetic carbon fixation, and several of its reaction steps are suggested to exert rate-limiting influence on the growth of higher plants. Plastid fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (aldolase, EC 4.1.2.13) is one of the nonregulated enzymes comprising
The aim of this work was to establish the influence of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) on non-photosynthetic carbohydrate metabolism in plants. Heterotrophic callus lines exhibiting elevated levels of Fru-2,6-P2 were generated from transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants expressing a
D-Galacturonic acid is the most abundant monosaccharide component of pectic polysaccharides that comprise a significant part of most plant cell walls. Therefore, it is potentially an important nutritional factor for Botrytis cinerea when it grows in and through plant cell walls. The d-galacturonic
We have examined the possible role of leaf cytosolic hexoses and the expression of mannitol metabolism as mechanisms that may affect the repression of photosynthetic capacity when plants are grown at 1000 versus 380 [mu]L L-1 CO2. In plants grown at high CO2, leaf ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate
Carboxyarabinitol 1-phosphatase (2-carboxy-d-arabinitol 1-phosphate phosphohydrolase), a chloroplast enzyme that metabolizes the naturally occurring inhibitor of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, was isolated from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) leaves. The enzyme was purified more than
Tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.) transformed with sense and antisense constructs of a cDNA encoding the tobacco phosphate-triose phosphate-3-phosphoglycerate translocator (phosphate translocator) were shown to contain altered amounts of phosphate translocator mRNA and protein. Phosphate
Transport of the herbicide amitrole (3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) by suspension cultured cells and leaf protoplasts of Nicotiana tabacum cv. Wisconsin 38 has been investigated. Cells were batch-cultured and routinely assayed 3 days after subculturing. Uptake rate was pH-independent, energy independent,
Different lengths of the promoter of grape (Vitis vinifera) VvHT1 (Hexose Transporter 1) gene, which encodes a putative hexose transporter expressed during the ripening of grape, have been transcriptionally fused to the beta-glucuronidase reporter gene. In transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)
The plant enzyme sucrose synthase (SuSy; EC 2.4.1.13) catalyzes the reversible conversion of sucrose and UDP into UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) and fructose. The enzyme exists in different isoforms and is both located in the cytosol, membrane-bound and associated to the actin cytoskeleton. We here
Cyclic electron flow around photosystem I (CEF1) is thought to augment chloroplast ATP production to meet metabolic needs. Very little is known about the induction and regulation of CEF1. We investigated the effects on CEF1 of antisense suppression of the Calvin-Benson enzymes
The plasma membrane hexose transporter and the tonoplast hexose transporter from heterotrophically grown transformed Nicotiana tabacum cells have been studied in vitro using membrane vesicles for trans-zero transport studies. In highly purified phase-partitioned outside-out plasma membrane vesicles
