[Effect of chloramphenicol and cycloheximide on synthesis of delta-aminolevulinate dehydratase in green and greening barley shoots].
The synthesis of sigma-aminolevulinate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.24) in green or greening barley shoots was shown to increase, when the plants were grown on chloramphenicol solutions of varying concentrations for 48 hrs upon illumination. This was evidenced from the increase in the enzyme activity of the chloroplast preparations isolated from the shoots as compared to the controls grown in aqueous media. Similar treatment by cycloheximide resulted in inhibition of the enzyme synthesis as observed in the experiments with green and greening shoots. The activity of porphobilinogenase (the porphobilinogene deaminase and uroporphirinogene III cosynthetase complex) showed similar dependence on the effect of the antibiotics. The results obtained are discussed in terms of localization of the chloroplast enzyme syntheses inside the cell.
