The activity and allosteric properties of plant phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC; EC 4.1.1.31) are controlled posttranslationally by specific reversible phosphorylation of a strictly conserved serine residue near the N-terminus. This up/down-regulation of PEPC is catalyzed by a dedicated and
The alteration in protein kinase and phosphatase activities in the liver nuclei of rats administered carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) was investigated. Rats received a single oral administration of CCl(4) (1 ml/100 g body wt of 5, 10, and 25% CCl(4) in corn oil), and 5, 24, and 48 h later they were
The dephosphorylation of phosphoproteins by protein phosphatases represents an important mechanism for regulating specific cellular processes in eukaryotic cells. The aim of the present study was to examine the structural and biochemical characteristics of a specific class of protein Ser/Thr
Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) is located in the mRNA binding site of the 40S subunit of cytosolic ribosomes. Two maize (Zea mays) rps6 genes were identified that encode polypeptides (30 kD, 11.4 pI) with strong primary amino acid sequence and predicted secondary structure similarity to RPS6 of other
Auxin is known to stimulate protein synthesis in many plant tissues, but the mechanisms involved in this process are unknown. The present research inquires whether auxin might regulate selective translation of mRNAs by inducing S6 ribosomal protein phosphorylation on the 40S ribosomal subunit in
