Ethylene treatment (approx. 20 μl ·1(-1) in air for 2 d) of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Havana 425) plants markedly increases the endo-β-1,3-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.39) content of leaves. The antigenic form of the enzyme induced is the same one whose production is blocked by treating cultured cell

A highly sensitive and specific "rocket" immunoassay was used to measure the content of an endo-type/?-l,3-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.39) in tissues of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Havana 425. We show that the accumulation of fl-l,3-glucanase in cultured pith-parenchyma tissue is blocked by combinations of the
We determined the primary structure of a tobacco r-1,3-glucanase gene. The r-1,3-glucanase gene has a single large intron, and the intron separates coding regions of the signal peptide and the mature enzyme. Analysis of the 5'-flanking region sequence revealed an 11 bp GC-rich element with perfect h
