In mustard seedling cotyledons, synthesis of nitrate reductase correlates with the level of nitrate reductase mRNA.
Quoted textsource-backed
Synthesis of NR (a cytosolic protein with two isoforms) correlated with the level of NR mRNA.
In mustard seedling cotyledons, actual enzyme synthesis of both nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase is controlled by nitrate.
Quoted textsource-backed
However, in both cases actual enzyme synthesis was controlled by nitrate
In mustard seedling cotyledons, nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase share the same dependence on positive control by the plastidic factor.
Quoted textsource-backed
the dependence on positive control by the plastidic factor was the same.
In mustard seedling cotyledons, nitrate reductase gene expression is positively controlled by a plastidic factor.
Quoted textsource-backed
A positive control of NR gene expression by the plastidic factor was observed.
In mustard seedling cotyledons, nitrate reductase mRNA level is determined by a strong synergistic coaction of nitrate and light.
Quoted textsource-backed
In mustard ( Sinapis alba L.) seedling cotyledons the NR‐mRNA level was determined by a strong synergistic coaction of nitrate and light.
Nitrate reductase is a nuclear-encoded cytosolic protein.
Quoted textsource-backed
While both enzymes are nuclear‐encoded, NR is a cytosolic and NIR a plastidic protein.
