TLDR
Variations in activity of several enzymes associated with carbohydrate metabolism were recorded during the development of barley endosperm, including sucrose-UDP glucosyl transferase, and nucleosidediphosphokinase.About:

Sugar nucleotide transformations in plants
David Sidney Feingold,Gad Avigad +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter discusses sugar nucleotide transformations in plant and reviews the enzymes responsible for the formation of compounds and for inters conversions of the sugar skeleton in the nucleotide sugar molecules.

Mitochondrial, plastid and cytosolic isozymes of hexokinase from developing endosperm of Ricinus communis
Jan A. Miernyk,David T. Dennis +1 more
TL;DR: Ion-filtration chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25 at pH 5.5 resolved the total hexokinase activity in a 27,000g supernatant prepared from developing castor oil (Ricinus communis L., cv. Baker 296) seeds into three distinct peaks.

Some enzyme activities associated with the chlorophyll containing layers of the immature barley pericarp
C. M. Duffus,R. Rosie +1 more
TL;DR: Some photosynthetic and biochemical properties of the chlorophyl containing layers of the pericarp of developing barley have been investigated and it has been shown that the enzyme phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase is present in thePericarp and is 100 times as active in carbon dioxide fixation as ribulose diphosphate car boxylase.

TL;DR: The levels of reducing and nonreducing sugars, starch, soluble protein, and selected enzymes involved in the metabolism of sucrose, glucose-1-P, and glucose nucleotides were assayed in dehulled developing rice grains during the first 3 weeks after flowering.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.

A photometric adaptation of the somogyi method for the determination of glucose
TL;DR: In this paper, the reliability of the various Somogyi-Shaffer-Hartmann (SHH) copper reagents for glucose determination in biological material has been established, which can be accomplished by omission of the iodide and iodate in their preparation, since these interfere with the molybdate color reagents.

Enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in the developing endosperm of maize.
TL;DR: The pattern of invertase activity in comparison with that of Sucrose-uridine diphosphate glucosyltransferase supports previous suggestions, that the latter plays a key role in the conversion of sucrose to starch.
