Stored proteinases and the initiation of storage protein mobilization in seeds during germination and seedling growth
Abstract
Though endopeptidases and carboxypeptidases are present in protein bodies of dry quiescent seeds the function of these proteases during germination is still a matter of debate. In some plants it was demonstrated that endopeptidases of dry protein bodies degrade storage proteins of these organelles. Other studies describe cases where this did not happen. The role that stored proteinases play in the initiation of storage protein breakdown in germinating seeds thus remains unclear. Numerous reviews state that the initiation of reserve protein mobilization is attributed to de novo formed endopeptidases which together with stored carboxypeptidases degrade the bulk of proteins in storage organs and tissues after seeds have germinated. The evidence that the small amounts of endopeptidases in protein bodies of embryonic axes and cotyledons of dry seeds from dicotyledonous plants play an important role in the initiation of storage protein mobilization during early germination is summarized here.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
