Abstract
Enzyme preparations from young corn shoots lacked the coenzyme, flavin mononucleotide, that is required for glycolic acid oxidation. When the coenzyme was added to the shoots, the rate of carbon dioxide production during photosynthesis increased. Shoots of wheat or oats did not lack the coenzyme.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
