Abstract

The development of enzyme patterns was followed in the course of: (a) the irreversible cell differentiation via division and expansion to maturity in the root tip and coleoptile of the intact seedlings, (b) the irreversible cell dedifferentation associated with induction and establishment of callus from the growing internodes, and (c) the growth cycle (proliferation⇋stationary phase) in callus and cell-suspension cultures of maize (Zea mays L.). By measuring the activities of glycolytic, mitochondrial, microbody and hydrolytic enzymes cells proliferating in vivo and in vitro could be compared and changes related to cessation or resumption of cell division could be studied.Proliferating cells of callus and suspension cultures maintained by serial culture did not differ from those of the root meristem and coleoptile in the specific activities of hexokinase, phosphoglycerate kinase and phosphopyruvate hydratase. Proliferation in vitro resulted in an enormous increase in the ratio g glutamate-dehydrogenase/cytochrome-oxidase activity and in the level of acid-phosphatase activity, with concomitant drop in galactosidase and xylosidase activity. A 3-5-fold increase of alcohol-dehydrogenase, lactate-dehydrogenase and catalase activities was characteristic of dividing callus cells, while a ca. 100-fold increase in the fructofuranosidase-to-glucosidase activity ratio marked cell proliferation in suspension-cultured cells.Changing enzyme activities after cessation of proliferation were quite similar in root tips and coleoptiles, except those of alcohol dehydrogenase and catalase. The enzyme rearrangement during callus establishment and in the growth cycle of callus cultures was in most cases comparable to that in the intact tissues, while the changes from the dividing to the non-dividing cells in suspension cultures, in contrast, differed widely from those in the intact tissues and callus. Galactosidase and xylosidase were the only activities that showed a similar trend of changes in all the investigated, intact and in-vitro-grown cells.Thus, judged by the pattern of enzyme development, the cell suspension appears to be a unique system, virtually unrelated to the growing cells of the intact tissues. It is also very difficult to draw a definite distinction between the metabolic consequences of cell growth and enzyme modulations in cell suspensions as the cells adapt their metabolism to the environmental changes in liquid medium.
