Abstract
During a 10-minute photosynthesis period with NaHC14O3, isolated whole chloroplasts formed a small amount of carboxyl-labeled serine-C14. The serine in the chloroplasts may be formed from carboxyl labeled phosphoglyceric acid. The glycine-C14 formed by chloroplasts was uniformly labeled. The results are compared with previous work, the formation of uniformly labeled serine in 4 seconds by whole cells even though the phosphoglycerate was carboxyl labeled. Modifications of the periodate degradation of serine were developed which gave quantitative recovery of C14 from each C atom without randomization.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
