الوصف: L-[guanido-14C]Arginine has been used as a precursor for nopaline and octopine syntheses in the in vitro assay for opine synthase activities. Fluorographic detection of [14C]nopaline and [14C]octopine was optimized following their separation from other labelled compounds by paper electrophoresis. Compared with detection by phenanthrenequinone, fluorography was more specific for the guanidine compounds and severalfold more sensitive. Alternate precursors such as α-[14C]ketoglutarate or [14C]pyruvate were poor substitutes for [14C]arginine because they generated compounds that comigrated with opines. Four nonopine radioactive spots recurred in the in vitro assays. These have not been identified but have been distinguished from both octopine and nopaline. This technique has provided clear evidence for transformation of Brassica species by Ti plasmids of Agrobacterium tumefaciens and will be valuable in the analysis of extremely small tissue samples.
