When the storage materials have been depleted, the endosperm cells undergo programmed cell death. Very little is known about how the components of the dying cells are recycled and used by the growing seedling. To learn more about endosperm degradation and nutrient recycling, we isolated soluble proteins from the endosperm of Euphorbia lagascae seedlings collected 2, 4, and 6 d after sowing. The...

Novel Lipid Transfer Property of Two Mitochondrial Proteins that Bridge the Inner and Outer Membranes
Biophysical Journal
; ABSTRACT This study provides evidence of a novel function for mitochondrial creatine kinase (MtCK) and nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK-D). Both are basic peripheral membrane proteins with symmetrical homo-oligomeric structure, which in the case of MtCK was already shown to allow crossbridging

Proteinase Inhibitor from Ginkgo Seeds Is a Member of the Plant Nonspecific Lipid Transfer Protein Gene Family1
Plant Physiology
; A 9-kD proteinase inhibitor was isolated from the seeds of ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) and purified to homogeneity. This protein was revealed to partial-noncompetitively inhibit the aspartic acid proteinase pepsin and the cysteine proteinase papain (inhibition constant = 10^sup -5^-10^sup -4^ M). The

Arabidopsis ABA INSENSITIVE4 Regulates Lipid Mobilization in the Embryo and Reveals Repression of Seed Germination by the Endosperm(W)
Plant Cell
; Regulation of seed germination requires coordinate action by the embryo and surrounding endosperm. We used Arabidopsis thaliana to establish the relative roles of embryo and endosperm in the control of seed germination and seedling establishment. We previously showed that endospermic oil reserves
