Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

The inhibitory protein of ethylene synthesis purified from mung bean seeds reduced ATP levels in mung bean hypocotyl segments. When the segments were incubated with 0.5mM IAA for 6 hr to induce ethylene-producing activity, the presence of the inhibitory protein suppressed the ethylene production and ATP content in the tissue about 82 and 60%, respectively. Similar suppressive effects were also observed for endogenous ethylene production and ATP contents in tissue not treated with IAA.
