Abstract

Phosphoglycerate mutase activity and mRNA levels during maize embryo germination were studied. Enzyme levels, activity and mRNA were found to be markedly increased during germination although in dry embryos phosphoglycerate mutase was detected in the absence of mRNA. The results here reported demonstrate that the enzyme was present in dry embryos but new synthesis of the phosphoglycerate mutase was required to permit the progress of germination.
