Pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase: intracellular site of synthesis in maize leaf cells

S L Gee et al. Plant Physiol. 1984 Jan.

Abstract

Pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase is synthesized in non-green leaf cells of the maize mutant iojap. Since iojap plastids lack ribosomes, it is concluded that the site of synthesis of pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase in maize leaf cells is on ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
