kalanchoe/protease

The activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase) kinase in leaf extracts increased markedly on dilution. This was shown to be caused by the presence of a protein that inhibits the kinase. The inhibitor protein was separated from the kinase and purified partially. It inhibited the kinase
