Purification and characterization of sinapoylglucose:malate sinapoyltransferase from Raphanus sativus L.

abstract：:Phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of the plasma-membrane H(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.35) could act as a regulatory mechanism to control its activity. In this work, a plasmalemma-enriched fraction from maize roots and a partially purified H(+)-ATPase were used to investigate the effects of Ca(2+) and calmodulin on the H(+)-A...
