摘要
The alkene oxygenase (AO) of fababean (Vicia faba L.) converts ethylene to ethylene oxide. Treatment of fababeans with 10μl/liter ethylene increases the activity of this enzyme within 2 hours of ethylene treatment. Though other alkenes were taken up by fababean seedlings, ethylene was the most active in inducing AO activity. The ability of ethylene to increase AO was blocked 60% by cycloheximide, an inhibitor of protein synthesis, and 35% by AgNO3, an inhibitor of ethylene action. © 1991 Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
