Steryl glucoside and acyl steryl glucoside formation in the amyloplast membrane during the development of potato tuber
Steryl glucoside (SG) and acylated steryl glucoside (ASG) synthesis was investigated in amyloplast membranes from young, intermediate and mature potato tubers. The synthesis ratio SG/ASG was lowest in young tubers (3:2) and highest in mature tubers (6:1). About a 3-fold stimulation of [14C] glucose...
