Abstract
Free- and bound-polyamine levels were estimated in successive segments of the mung-bean hypocotyl. Three aliphatic polyamines (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) were found in proportions which depended on the state of maturation. In young cells, most of the polyamines were located in the protoplasm whereas in older cells they were mostly bound to the cell walls. Spermidine was always the main bound polyamine, and putrescine, the main free polyamine.This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
