The metabolism of allantoin by immature cotyledons of soybean (Glycine max L. cv Elf) grown in culture was investigated using solid state (13)C and (15)N nuclear magnetic resonance. All of the nitrogens of allantoin were incorporated into protein in a manner similar to that of each other and to the
Some studies on the effects of xanthine oxidase inhibitor allopurinol [4-hydroxypyrazolo(3,4-d)pyrimidine] on allantoin metabolism of soybean plants (Glycine max cv. Tamanishiki) are reported. Soybean seedlings, aseptically germinated for 96 hours on agar containing 1 millimolar allopurinol,
During the period examined from 12 to 63 days after planting, the ureides, allantoin and allantoic acid, were the predominant nitrogenous solutes in the xylem exudate of soybeans (Glycine max [L.]) growing solely on symbiotically fixed nitrogen, accounting for approximately 60% and greater than 95%
Samples of stem exudate and plant tissue collected from field-grown soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) plants were analyzed for allantoin and allantoic acid. Nitrogen in nitrate plus amino acids exceeded ureide N concentration in stem exudate prior to flowering. During all of reproductive development
Ureide analyses of soybean (Glycine max L.) tissues were accomplished with a modified and simplified automated analysis used to determine allantoin concentration in rat urine. The length of the circuit and flow rates of the solutions were reduced, and NaOH was used for color development at room
Nodulated legumes receive their nitrogen via nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, which exist in a symbiotic relationship with the root system. In tropical legumes like French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) or soybean (Glycine max), most of the fixed nitrogen is used for synthesis of the ureides allantoin and
The impact of long-term exposure to Sr2+ (LTE, four doses, 43.5 mg Sr2+ per pot, with a total of 174 mg Sr2+ per pot during the entire period of cultivation) and short-term exposure to Sr2+ (STE, one dose, 870 mg Sr2+ per pot four days before
Experiments were conducted to characterize the distribution of N compounds in the xylem sap of nodulated and nonnodulated soybean plants through development and to determine the effects of exogenous N on the distribution of N compounds in the xylem. Xylem sap was collected from nodulated and
Soybean (Glycine max) and pea (Pisum sativum) differ in the transport of fixed nitrogen from nodules to shoots. The dominant nitrogen transport compounds for soybean are ureides, while amides dominate in pea. A possible enzymic basis for this difference was examined.The level of enzymes involved in
Allantoate amidohydrolases (AAHs) hydrolize the ureide allantoate to ureidoglycolate, CO(2), and two molecules of ammonium. Allantoate degradation is required to recycle purine-ring nitrogen in all plants. Tropical legumes additionally transport fixed nitrogen via allantoin and allantoate into the
The detrimental effects of excessive Ni on plant growth have been well known for many years. More recent evidence indicates that Ni is required in small amounts for normal plant growth and development. Ni is an essential component of urease in plants and microorganisms. A deficiency of Ni in plants
Allantoinase catalyzes the hydrolysis of allantoin to allantoic acid, a reaction important in both biogenesis and degradation of ureides. Ureide production in cotyledons of germinating soybean (Glycine max L.) seeds has not been studied extensively but may be important in mobilizing nitrogen
Allantoinase (allantoin amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.2.5) catalyzes the conversion of allantoin to allantoic acid in the final step of ureide biogenesis. We have purified allantoinase more than 4000-fold by immunoaffinity chromatography from root nodules and cotyledons of soybean (Glycine max [L] Merr.).
Itachi, a soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) variety with 0.2% normal seed urease activity, was recovered from a screen of 6,000 entries in the United States Department of Agriculture soybean germplasm collection. No urease antigen in Itachi seed extracts was detected by double diffusion or by rocket
The ureides, allantoin and allantoic acid, are the major nitrogenous substances transported within the xylem of N(2)-fixing soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Amsoy 71). The ureides accumulated in the cotyledons, roots and shoots of soybean seedlings inoculated with Rhizobium or grown in the presence
