Journal ArticleDOI
The specific features of methionine biosynthesis and metabolism in plants
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of AdoMet in plant growth via an as yet fully understood link with plant growth hormones such as cytokinins and auxin and in plant pathogen interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The glycine decarboxylase system: a fascinating complex.
TL;DR: Plant mitochondria possess all the necessary enzymatic equipment for de novo synthesis of tetrahydrofolate and lipoic acid, serving as cofactors for glycine decarboxylase and serine hydroxymethyltransferase functioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and Properties of the Envelope of Spinach Chloroplasts
TL;DR: The method makes use of the fact that gentle swelling of intact chloroplasts causes breakage and total detachment of the envelope to isolate separately the envelope and thylakoids of chloroplast.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of membrane fractions enriched in outer and inner envelope membranes from spinach chloroplasts. II. Biochemical characterization
TL;DR: The polar lipid composition of each envelope membrane after thermolysin treatment of the intact chloroplasts is analyzed to demonstrate that the envelope membranes, and especially the outer membrane, do not resemble extrachloroplastic membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of plant mitochondria by isopycnic centrifugation in density gradients of Percoll
TL;DR: The great flexibility of purification procedure involving silica sols was extended from mitochondria to the isolation of intact peroxisomes and Percoll-purified mitochondria showed improved rates of substrate oxidation, respiratory control, and ADP:O ratios.
