Riassunto

La glutammico decarbossilasi è localizzata nell'embrione di semi secchi diTriticum durum, mentre l'endosperma ne risulta praticamente privo. Durante la germinazione si ha un aumento dell'attività specifica GAD alla sesta ora di imbibizione, seguita da una lenta e progressiva diminuzione per le seguenti 24 ore. L'enzima è attivato dal piridossal-5′-fosfato, ma le variazioni di attività GAD durante la germinazione non sembrano dipendere direttamente dalla concentrazione del coenzima.
