A 60 kDa protein (P60) co-purified with phytochrome was identified as avenacosidase, a beta-glucosidase which is part of the defense system of Avena sativa. An antiserum raised against P60 was used to isolate a cDNA clone coding for the complete amino acid sequence of P60. The cDNA-derived amino acid sequence contained the partial sequences described before for a protein kinase [(1989) Planta 178, 199-206] and for a TCP1-related molecular chaperone [(1993) Nature 363, 644-647] co-purified with phytochrome. We conclude that these activities were related to minor contaminants and that only sequences of avenacosidase had been obtained.

PMID:The amino acid sequence previously attributed to a protein kinase or a TCP1-related molecular chaperone and co-purified with phytochrome is a beta-glucosidase. 801 61
