title: [Intracellular localization and characteristics of monophenol monooxygenase in the leaves of tea plants].
abstract: The intracellular localization and some properties of monophenol monooxygenase (MPMO) from fresh tea leaves have been studied. It has been demonstrated that MPMO activity is located in cytosole and chloroplasts. These two forms have different properties. Molecular weights of cytosole and chloroplasts MPMO are 41 and 28 kD respectively. The chloroplasts and cytosole forms of MPMO reveal maximum activity at pH 5.3 and 7.1 respectively.
