title: Germination of Phaseolus vulgaris: IV. Patterns of Protein Synthesis in Excised Axes.
abstract: Soluble proteins from excised Phaseolus vulgaris axes incubated for 1 hour in (3)H or (14)C- amino acid mixtures at different times during the period leading up to initiation of cell elongation were compared by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. Differences in electrophoretic patterns were found when proteins from axes incubated during the 1st hour of imbibition were compared with proteins from axes incubated during the hour when cell elongation was initiated. These differences greatly diminished by the 2nd hour of imbibition which suggests that they were due primarily to incomplete axis imbibition. A 5-hour actinomycin D treatment which reduced amino acid incorporation by 40% in the 5th hour had no apparent effect on the electrophoretic pattern during that hour.
