  • Studies on sterol : UDP glucose glucosyltransferase in germinating pea seedling

    Creator:
    Fang, Ta-Yun
    Abstract:
    Steryl glycoside is synthesized from mevalonate [2- ¹⁴C] in both maturing pea seeds and etiolated pea seedlings. The maturing seed appeared more active than the seedlings for this synthesis. The sugar moiety was identified predominantly as glucose by acid hydrolysis and paper chromatography of the aqueous extract of the hydrolysate....

  • Characterization of different forms of lysophospholipase in barley

    Creator:
    Lundgard, Robert
    Abstract:
    During barley germination, α-amylase and other hydrolases are synthesized in the aleurone layer and secreted into the starchy endosperm. As starch is degraded by amylases, lysophospholipids are released from inclusion complexes with the starch and undergo hydrolysis by a lysophospholipase (LPL) activity. Studies with embryo-free half seeds and isolated aleurone...
