Changing kinetics of L-valine uptake by immature pea cotyledons during development : An unsaturable pathway is supplemented by a saturable system.

abstract：:Four proteins were isolated from depectinised elementary fibres of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), using either alkali or cellulase digestion treatments. All the four proteins were characterized by a deficiency or low contents of hydroxyproline and by high levels of glutamic acid/glutamine and/or aspartic acid/asparagi...
