Abstract excerpt
Maize beta-glucosidase (beta-D-glucoside glucohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.21) was extracted from coleoptiles of 15 maize genotypes (3 normals, 10 nulls, and 2 hybrids) in two fractions, the soluble and the insoluble. The enzyme activity was measured spectrophotometrically in the soluble fraction and also studied on zymograms after native gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. The enzyme was purified from a normal...
