Table 1 RS activities in leaves of wild-type (Col-0) and RS5 mutants subjected to various abiotic stresses

From: Abiotic stress-induced accumulation of raffinose in Arabidopsis leaves is mediated by a single raffinose synthase (RS5, At5g40390)

  1. Assays were conducted with desalted leaf crude extracts incubated with 100 mM Suc and 10 mM Gol at pH 7.5 for 1 h. NS, non-stressed; S, stressed (as per Materials and Methods); 4°C, cold-stressed; WD, water deficit-stressed; NaCl, salt-stressed; MV, methyl viologen-stressed; 30°C, heat-stressed. Values in bold represent increased RS activities in stressed as compared to non-stressed leaves. Values are the means ± SE of three independent replicates and represent RS activities expressed in nkat g-1 DW.
