Subcellular organelle fractionation of nitrogen-fixing nodules of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) indicates that a number of enzymes involved in the assimilation of ammonia into amino acids and purines are located in the proplastids. These include asparagine synthetase (
EC 6.3.1.1
), phosphoribosyl amidotransferase (EC 2.4.2.14), phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.95), serine hydroxymethylase (EC 2.1.2.1), and methylene-tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.5). Of the two isoenzymes of asparate aminotransferase (
EC 2.6.1.1
) in the nodule, only one was located in the proplastid fraction. Both glutamate synthase (EC 1.4.1.14) and triosephosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1) were associated at least in part with the proplastids. Glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) and xanthine dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.37) were found in significant quantities only in the soluble fraction. Phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase (EC 2.7.6.1) was found mostly in the soluble fraction, although small amounts of it were detected in other organelle fractions. These results together with recent organelle fractionation and electron microscopic studies form the basis for a model of the subcellular distribution of ammonium assimilation, amide synthesis and uredie biogenesis in the nodule.

During the senescence of Lolium temulentum leaf sections in the dark, asparagine and glutamine accumulated as the level of soluble protein declined. During the first 3-4 days after detachment, when the rate of protein loss was maximal, a four-fold increase in acid protease activity (EC 3.4.4.?) occurred. Subsequently this activity was replaced by proteases with a higher pH optimum. There was also a pronounced and continued activation of glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.2) during senescence. Glutamate pyruvate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.2), benzoylarginine-p-nitroanilide hydrolase (EC 3.4.?.?) and leucyl-p-nitroanilide hydrolase (EC 3.4.1.1) declined from high initial activities after 3-4 days. Glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT,
EC 2.6.1.1
) was fairly stable although a marked increase occurred in the activity of one of two major GOT isoenzymes over the first two days. Glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) was highly active in non-senescent leaves but fell sharply during the first three days of senescence. Little asparagine synthetase (
EC 6.3.1.1
) was detected. The role of these enzymes in the nitrogen metabolism of senescent detached leaves is discussed.
