Alanine and Ammonia Release by N,-Fixing , Bacteroids,t ammonia. If plant nodule cytosol was added to sucrose density gradient purified bacteroids, alanine was no longer excreted but ammonia was found instead. This indicates that alanine, and not ammonia, is the primary nitrogen carrier out of the soybean bacteroid.

One can obtain engineered transgenic plants that overexpress a certain gene or that partially inhibit specific gene expression (through antisense post-transcriptional inhibition). We have followed this experimental approach to modulat

Northern analysis of RNA isolated from leaves and nodules of nodulated N.-fixing plants showed significant accumulation of the transcript for the GS., transgene only in the leaves but not in the nodules. However, s

Cloning and Developmental Expression of a Nodule-Enhanced Sucrose Synthase cDNA from Alfalfa,e in root nodules, sucrose must be cleaved to glucose and other smaller carbon compounds. Here we report the isolation and characterization of a full length cDNA encoding the enzyme sucrose synthase (SS; EC 2.4.1.13). This SS cDNA shows greatest expression in effective nitrogen-fixing nodules. It is
