Activation of particulate starch synthetase from Zea mays embryo
The effect of spermine on particulate ADP-glucose: starch synthetase from the developing embryo of sweet corn has been studied. Spermine induces a considerable increase of glucose incorporation from ADP-glucose into the starch granules. The change in kinetic constants, the distribution of incorporat...

Sumario: | The effect of spermine on particulate ADP-glucose: starch synthetase from the developing embryo of sweet corn has been studied. Spermine induces a considerable increase of glucose incorporation from ADP-glucose into the starch granules. The change in kinetic constants, the distribution of incorporated glucose between amylose and amylopectin and the pattern of incorporation into starch granules or malto-oligosaccharides has been studied. The data were compared with those obtained with citrate ions. © 1975. |
