Описание книги

All organisms produce nucleobases, nucleosides, and nucleotides of purines and pyrimidines. However, while there have been a number of texts on nucleotide metabolism in microorganisms and humans, the presence of these phenomena in plant life has gone comparatively unexplored. This ground-breaking new book is the first to focus exclusively on the aspects of purine nucleotide metabolism and function that are particular to plants, making it a unique and essential resource. The authors provide a comprehensive break down of purine nucleotide structures and metabolic pathways, covering all facets of the topic. Furthermore, they explain the role that purine nucleotides can play in plant development, as well as the effects they may have on human health when ingested. Plant Nucleotide Metabolism offers a unique and important resource to all students, researchers, and lecturers working in plant biochemistry, physiology, chemistry, agricultural sciences, nutrition, and associated fields of research.

Biosynthesis of RNA is catalysed by RNA polymerase (DNA-directed RNA polymerase, EC 2.7.7.6). The reaction is:

RNA polymerase, locally, opens the double-stranded DNA (usually about four turns of the double helix) so that one strand of the exposed nucleotides can be used as a template for the synthesis of RNA, namely transcription. A transcription factor and its associated transcription mediator complex must be attached to a DNA binding site, a promoter region, before RNA polymerase can initiate the DNA unwinding at that position. RNA polymerase has intrinsic helicase activity, therefore, no additional enzyme is required to unwind the DNA, in contrast to DNA polymerase. RNA polymerase, not only initiates RNA transcription, it also guides the nucleotides into position, facilitates attachment and elongation, has intrinsic proof reading and replacement capabilities, and a termination recognition function. In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase can build chains as long as 2.4 million nucleotides.
