Abstract:
:The enzyme 3'-AMP nucleotidase was purified 2,500- to 5,000-fold from extracts of an acetone powder of wheat (Triticum aestivum) embryonic axes germinated for 40 hours. Sodium dodecyl sulfate acrylamide gel electrophoresis and chromatography on Biogel-P100 indicate that the enzyme is monomeric with a molecular weight of 39,000. Extracts of embryos germinated up to 6 hours have only 1% of the 40-hour level of enzyme activity. To see if the increase to 40 hours represents de novo synthesis, extracts were compared for their ability to react with a rabbit antibody prepared against the enzyme. In immunodiffusion tests, 40-hour extracts showed a strong precipitin line coincident with that of the purified enzyme, whereas no precipitation was observed with 1-hour extracts. When the enzyme present in 40-hour extracts was partially inactivated by EDTA, it still blocked the ability of the antibody to inhibit enzyme activity. Extracts of 1-hour embryos, in contrast, were not able to block the inhibitory activity of the antibody. Embryos allowed to take up (35)SO(4) between 40 and 46 hours of germination synthesized (35)S-labeled 3'-nucleotidase. In contrast, no radioactive protein synthesized by embryos during the first 6 hours of germination coincided on gel electrophoresis with the enzyme. These results indicate that the increase in 3'-nucleotidase activity is a consequence of de novo synthesis of the enzyme.
