16656590 | Chrispeels MJ, Varner JE: Hormonal Control of Enzyme Synthesis: On the Mode of Action of Gibberellic Acid and Abscisin in Aleurone Layers of Barley. Plant Physiol. 1967 Jul;42(7):1008-1016. Gibberellic acid (GA) enhances the synthesis of alpha-amylase and ribonuclease in isolated aleurone layers and this process is inhibited by abscisin. Removal of gibberellic acid in mid-course of alpha-amylase production results in a slowing down of alpha-amylase synthesis, suggesting a continued requirement of GA for enzyme synthesis. This is paralleled by a continuous requirement for RNA synthesis. Addition of 6-methylpurine or 8-azaguanine in mid-course results in an inhibition of alpha-amylase synthesis within 3 to 4 hours. However, actinomycin D added in mid-course is almost without effect. This is not due to its failure to enter the cells, because it does inhibit (14) C- incorporation at this stage. Addition of abscisin to aleurone layers which are synthesizing alpha-amylase results in an inhibition of this synthesis within 2 to 3 hours. Cycloheximide on the other hand inhibits enzyme synthesis immediately upon its addition. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the expression of the GA effect requires the synthesis of enzyme-specific RNA molecules. The similarity in the kinetics of inhibition between abscisin on the one hand and 8-azaguanine or 6-methylpurine on the other suggests that abscisin may exert its action by inhibiting the synthesis of these enzyme-specific RNA molecules or by preventing their incorporation into an active enzyme-synthesising unit. |
