Abstract
Ubiquitous soybean urease, as opposed to the seed-specific urease, designates the seemingly identical ureolytic activities of suspension cultures and leaves. It also appears to be the basal urease in developing seeds of a variety, Itachi, which lacks the seed-specific urease (Polacco, Winkler 1984 Plant Physiol 74: 800-804). On native polyacrylamide gels the ureolytic activities in crude extracts of these three tissues comigrate as determined by assays of gel slices. At this level of resolution the ubiquitous urease also migrates with or close to the fast (trimeric) form of the seed-specific urease.This publication has 27 references indexed in Scilit:
