Two types of phosphorylase [EC 2.4.1.1] from the etiolated soybean (Glycine max) cotyledons were separated by column chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and further purified to apparent homogeneities. Molecular weights of the subunits were 100,000 and 113,000 for phosphorylases I and II, respectively.
Metabolism of trehalose, alpha,d-glucopyranosyl-alpha,d-glucopyranoside, was studied in nodules of Bradyrhizobium japonicum-Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv Beeson 80 symbiosis. The nodule extract was divided into three fractions: bacteroid soluble protein, bacteroid fragments, and cytosol. The bacteroid
