Method PPDK Extraction and Activity Assays. Immunoblot Analysis Total soluble proteins on a leaf area basis were separated by 10% Tris-Gly SDS-PAGE and blotted onto the polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. PPDK and Rubisco proteins were detected with rabbit polyclonal antibodies raised against recombinant maize PPDK (Budde and Chollet, 1986) and native spinach (Spinacia oleracea) Rubisco.
Comments When quantified in absolute terms, PPDK content in 25°C grown M. × giganteus leaves was 0.30 g/m2 and increased to 0.56 g/m2 after 14 d at 14°C
