The effects of vanadate, molybdate, and azide on ATP phosphohydrolase (ATPase) and acid phosphatase activities of plasma membrane, mitochondrial, and soluble supernatant fractions from corn (Zea mays L. WF9 x MO17) roots were investigated. Azide (0.1-10 millimolar) was a selective inhibitor of pH
Freshly-harvested seeds of Avena sativa L. do not germinate when imbibed at temperatures higher than 25 degrees C. This high temperature dormancy is due to the seed coats, and to the low activities of glycolysis and the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPP) in the embryo. The analysis by
Cytochemical techniques employing lead-precipitation of enzymically released inorganic phosphate have been widely used in attempts to localize the plasma membrane proton pump (H(+)-ATPase) in electron micrographs. Using Avena sativa root tissue we have performed a side-by-side comparison of ATPase
We have used a highly sensitive immunological tissue print technique to study cell- and tissue-specific expression of heterologous genes in transgenic plants. Primary polyclonal antibodies, raised against legumin of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) and 12S globulin of oat (Avena sativa L.) were used to
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by an increase in bone fragility as a result of decreased bone mass and weakening of the bone structure. There are studies on the relationship between osteoporosis and hearing and balance system. The goal of this study was to compare the We recently reported that cultivation of oat (Avena sativa L.) without phosphate resulted in plasma membrane phosphoglycerolipids being replaced to a large extent by digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) (Andersson, M. X., Stridh, M. H., Larsson, K. E., Liljenberg, C., and Sandelius, A. S. (2003) FEBS
Seedlings of natural crops are valuable sources of pharmacologically active phytochemicals. In this study, we aimed to identify new active secondary metabolites in Avena sativa L. (oat) seedlings. Two new compounds, avenafuranol (1) and diosgenoside (2), along with eight known compounds (3-10) were

Deficiency of available forms of phosphorus is common in most soils and causes reduction of crop plants growth and yield. Recently, model plants responses to phosphate (Pi) deficiency have been intensively studied. However, acclimation mechanisms of cereals like oat (Avena sativa L.), to
Oat (Avena sativa L.) aleurone layer cells (spheroplasts) were isolated by maceration of the aleurone layer with a mixture of commercially available cellulase and pectinase. About 20% of the cells present in intact layers were released as spheroplasts and 79 +/- 9% of the spheroplast population was
In order to determine if components of the signal transduction pathway are involved in starch metabolism during the gravitropic response, the effects of inhibitors of phosphoprotein phosphatases and protein kinases (OA), and calcium channel blockers (LaCl3), on gravitropic bending and starch levels
Polyclonal antibodies against victorin, the host-specific toxin produced by Cochliobolus victoriae, were raised in rabbits immunized with a victorin-bovine serum albumin conjugate. The antibodies were purified from serum by protein A column chromatography and characterized by indirect and direct
The localization of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase has been studied at the optical microscope level utilizing frozen and paraffin sections of Avena sativa and Pisum sativum, specific anti-ATPase polyclonal antibody, and second antibody coupled to alkaline phosphatase. In leaves and stems the ATPase is
We investigated the ability of summer (Avena sativa [oat], Trifolium incarnatum [crimson clover], Chenopodium [goosefoot]) and winter (Vicia villosa [hairy vetch], Secale Cereale L. [Rye], Brassica napus L. partim [rape]) cover crops, including a mixed species treatment, to extract copper from an
A high resolution growth measuring apparatus was used to demonstrate the inhibition of auxin-induced cell elongation in oat coleoptile segments (Avena sativa L. var Holden) by lead at concentrations ranging from 2 x 10-6 M to 2 x 10-3 M. The inhibition was immediate, having no measurable lag period.
When the protoplasts of peeled oat leaf segments (Avena sativa L.) expand after a brief plasmolysis (osmotic shock), fusicoccin-enhanced H(+) excretion is reduced and protein is released to the rehydration medium. This shock protein seems to arise from the cell surface, not from the interior of
