In Avena sativa embryos, the biogenesis of galactono-γ-lactone oxidase, the enzyme which catalyses the last step of the ascorbic acid biosynthetic pathway is inhibited by both mitochondrial and cytoplasmic protein synthesis inhibitors. In the same experimental conditions (incubating embryos with protein synthesis inhibitors) glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase biogenesis is affected only by cytoplasmic translation inhibitors. These preliminary data seem to suggest that galactono-γ-lactone oxidase might be a multimeric enzyme, in which some polypeptidic chains could be synthesized in the cytosol and others in the mitochondria. © 1992.

Abstract
In Avena sativa embryos, the biogenesis of galactono-γ-lactone oxidase, the enzyme which catalyses the last step of the ascorbic acid biosynthetic pathway is inhibited by both mitochondrial and cytoplasmic protein synthesis inhibitors. In the same experimental conditions (incubating embryos with protein synthesis inhibitors) glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase biogenesis is affected only by cytoplasmic translation inhibitors. These preliminary data seem to suggest that galactono-γ-lactone oxidase might be a multimeric enzyme, in which some polypeptidic chains could be synthesized in the cytosol and others in the mitochondria. © 1992.File in questo prodotto:
