Abstract
The amino acid incorporating system isolated from maize seedlings has been stabilized and its ability to incorporate labeled leucine enhanced 10-fold. By treatment of the microsomal pellet with sodium deoxycholate, a reproducible and stable ribosomal component is obtained routinely. A moderately stable supernatant component is prepared from a concentrated homogenate of the maize plumules. The increased activity and stability of these components correlate with a decrease in endogenous levels of ribonuclease (EC 2.7.7.16) present in both components. No net increase in protein or formation of labeled soluble protein has been demonstrated.
