The effect of Cd2+ on the biosynthesis of chlorophyll in leaves of barley

Stobart, Allan K., Griffiths, W. Trevor, Ameen‐Bukhari, Ibraheem, Sherwood, Robert P.·1985·Physiologia Plantarum

Abstract

The effect of cadmium on the biosynthesis of chlorophyll has been investigated in the leaves of dark‐grown seedlings of barley (Hordeum vulture L. cv. Proctor). Cd2+ inhibited the production of chlorophyll by affecting 1) the synthesis of 5‐aminolacvulinic acid and 2) the protoehlorophyllide reductase ternary complex with its substrates. Cd2+ had no effect on the constituent enzymes that catalyse the synthesis of free protoehlorophyllide from 5‐aminolaevulinic acid. The results obtained are consistent with Cd2+ inhibiting the formation of chlorophyll by reacting with essential thiol groups in both the protochlorophyllide reductase protein and the enzyme(s) involved in the light dependent synthesis of 5‐aminolaevulinic acid.

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.
