Preparations of heterocysts of Anabaena cylindrica Lemm. had 7- to 8-fold higher activities of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, 2-fold more hexokinase activity, and 0.02 to 0.06 times as much ribulose diphosphate carboxylase and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase activities as did whole filaments per milligram soluble protein in cell-free extracts. Time courses of solubilization of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity indicated that heterocysts contain 74 to 80% of the total activity of this enzyme in filaments.

A salt-sensitive genotype of Solanum lycopersicum cv. Volgogradskij was submitted to a 6-day treatment with high salt (100, 200 mM NaCl), allowed to recover for 6 days and then submitted to a second period of salt stress in order to study changes in carbohydrate metabolism related to salt adaptation. The ion, soluble sugar and starch contents, as well as sucrose biosynthetic and sugar mobilizing enzyme activities and transcript levels were determined during the salt stress/recovery/stress cycle. Sodium ions were found to accumulate preferentially in old leaves. Young leaves accumulated lower levels of sodium ions but maintained control levels of potassium ions. Hexoses accumulated to higher levels and starch was better maintained in young compared to old leaves during the two salt treatments. Sucrose accumulated dramatically only in old leaves during the initial salt treatment. Sugar accumulation was not related to decreases in the activities of sugar mobilizing enzymes, acid (EC 3.2.1.25) and neutral (EC 3.2.1.26) invertases, sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13) and hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1). The activity of the biosynthetic enzyme sucrose phosphate synthase (EC 2.3.1.14) was linked to changes in sucrose levels but not with transcript levels. These results point to the importance of post-transcriptional regulation. Transcriptional regulation could nevertheless be seen in the down-regulation of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit (EC 4.1.1.39) in old compared to young leaves, but this was not related to sugar levels.

The maximum extractable activities of twenty-one photosynthetic and glycolytic enzymes were measured in mature leaves of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum plants, grown under a 12 h light 12 h dark photoperiod, exhibiting photosynthetic characteristics of either a C3 or a Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plant. Following the change from C3 photosynthesis to CAM in response to an increase in the salinity of in the rooting medium from 100 mM to 400 mM NaCl, the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31) increased about 45-fold and the activities of NADP malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40) and NAD malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.38) increased about 4- to 10-fold. Pyruvate, Pi dikinase (EC 2.7.9.1) was not detected in the non-CAM tissue but was present in the CAM tissue; PEP carboxykinase (EC 4.1.1.32) was detected in neither tissue. The induction of CAM was also accompanied by large increases in the activities of the glycolytic enzymes enolase (EC 4.2.1.11), phosphoglyceromutase (EC 2.7.5.3), phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), NAD glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), and glucosephosphate isomerase (EC 2.6.1.2). There were 1.5- to 2-fold increases in the activities of NAD malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37), alanine and aspartate aminotransferases (EC 2.6.1.2 and 2.6.1.1 respectively) and NADP glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13). The activities of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11), phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.2) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) remained relatively constant. NADP malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.82) activity exhibited two pH optima in the non-CAM tissue, one at pH 6.0 and a second at pH 8.0. The activity at pH 8.0 increased as CAM was induced. With the exceptions of hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, the activities of all enzymes examined in extracts from M. crystallinum exhibiting CAM were equal to, or greater than, those required to sustain the maximum rates of carbon flow during acidification and deacidification observed in vivo. There was no day-night variation in the maximum extractable activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, NADP malic enzyme, NAD malic enzyme, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and NADP malate dehydrogenase in leaves of M. crystallinum undergoing CAM.

Enzymic activities have been measured in cell-free extracts from nitrogen-starved cultures ofAnkistrodesmus braunii. During ten hours of nitrogenstarvation the activities of the enzymes nitrite reductase (E.C.1.6.6.4), glutamic dehydrogenase (E.C.1.4.1.4), glutamine synthetase (E.C.6.3.1.2) and urea amidolyase (E.C.3.5.1.5) were derepressed while the activities of the enzymes malate dehydrogenase (E.C.1.1.1.37) and hexokinase (E.C.2.7.1.1) remained more or less unchanged. In contrast, the photosynthetic capacity of the nitrogen-starved cultures declined rapidly and accompanying this decline were losses in the activities of ribulose diphosphate carboxylase (E.C.4.1.1.39) and triose phosphate-NADP-dehydrogenase (E.C.1.2.1.13).
