Amino Acid Biosynthesis by Isolated Chloroplasts during Photosynthesis 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The pool sizes of the common amino acids in purified intact chloroplasts from Vicia faba L. were measured (nanomoles per milligram chlorophyll). The three amino acids present in the highest concentrations were glutamate, aspartate, and threonine. Alanine, serine, and glycine were each present at levels between 15 and 20 nanomoles per milligram chlorophyll and 13 other amino acids were detectable at levels below 10.
