fructose/glycine max

Activity of pyrophosphate:fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase (PFP) was investigated in relation to carbohydrate metabolism and physiological growth stage in mixotrophic soybean (Glycine max Merr.) suspension cells. In the presence of exogenous sugars, log phase growth occurred and the cells

Obesity causes adipocyte hypertrophy, which leads to cell death. Consequently, macrophages and lymphocytes infiltrate into the adipose tissue and elevate pro-inflammatory cytokine production through TLR activation. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of soybean extract, which was elicited by

A full-length cDNA of soybean chloroplastic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase was cloned and sequenced. The cDNA contained 1321 bp with 5' (26 bp) and 3' (88 bp) untranslated regions. The open reading frame of the cDNA contained 1206 bp corresponding to a polypeptide of 402 amino acids with 50 amino acid

Starch, sucrose, and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F2, 6BP) levels were measured in pea (Pisum sativum L.), maize (Zea mays L.), onion (Allium cepa L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.) leaves throughout a light/dark cycle. Leaf starch accumulated in pea, maize, and soybean but not in onion. Sucrose was a

The aim of this work was to discover whether fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) is present in higher-plant cells that synthesize storage starch. The following were examined: suspension cultures of soybean (Glycine max), tubers of potato (Solanum tuberosum), florets of cauliflower (Brassica

Net photosynthesis (CER), assimilate-export rate, sucrose-phosphate-synthase (EC 2.4.1.14) activity, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate content, and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase (EC 2.7.1.105) activity were monitored in leaves of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) plants during a 12:12 h day-night cycle, and in

The cytoplasm was identified as the probable location of pyrophosphate-fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.90) in suspension-cultured cells of soybean (Glycine max L.). The characteristics of the partially purified enzyme were investigated. The activity was strongly dependent on the

Climate change has brought about an increasing level of seedcorn maggot (Delia platura Meigen, 1826) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) damage in Hungary. In order to have a more accurate understanding of the effects of these plant injuries induced by the larvae of D. platura, the nutrient content of soybean

Changes in gene expression within roots of Glycine max (soybean), cv. Kent, susceptible to infection by Heterodera glycines (the soybean cyst nematode [SCN]), at 6, 12, and 24 h, and 2, 4, 6, and 8 days post-inoculation were monitored using microarrays containing more than 6,000 cDNA inserts.

Growth chamber studies with soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) were designed to determine the relative limitations of NO(3) (-), NADH, and nitrate reductase (NR) per se on nitrate metabolism as affected by light and temperature. Three NR enzyme assays (+NO(3) (-)in vivo, -NO(3) (-)in vivo, and in

A procedure for the regeneration of fertile plants by organogenesis from tissue cultures of soybeans, Glycine max is described. Seeds were germinated on reduced inorganic salt MS medium containing 5μM BA. Cotyledonary nodes were excised and cultured on the same medium. Presence of BA in the medium

Short term experiments were conducted with vegetative soybean plants (Glycine max L. Merr. ;Ransom' or ;Arksoy') to determine whether sourcesink manipulations, which rapidly changed the ;demand' for sucrose and partitioning of photosynthetically fixed carbon into starch, were associated with

The effects of phosphorus nutrition on various aspects of photosynthetic metabolism have been examined for soybean plants (Glycine max) grown in growth chambers. Orthophosphate was supplied at two levels in 0.5-strength Hoagland's solution. At the end of the 19-d growth period, plants grown at 10 μM

Invertases are essential enzymes that irreversibly catalyze the cleavage of sucrose into glucose and fructose. Cell wall invertase (CWI) and vacuolar invertase (VI) are glycosylated proteins and exert fundamental roles in plant growth as well as in response to environmental cues. As yet,

An alkaline fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase activity associated with soybean (Glycine max cv Beeson) chloroplasts appears to be membrane-bound. The pH optimum of the membrane-associated activity corresponds to that found for activity associated with the stroma. Illumination of washed thylakoids results
