Abstract
The fate of [U-'UC]aspartate during 6 hr of uptake
by 10·day old seedlings of Bengal gram has been
studied. Much of the aspartate (about 42%) taken up
is converted into CO~, about 10,% Into organic acids
(mainly malic and citric acids), 6% into amino acids
and 3 tool % Into alkali extractable (protein) components.
Among amino acidS, lysine·(34%) and threonine
(homoserine) (8·8'i'~) had the hil1hest activity.
The results indicate that, in Bengal gram, the pathway
of biosynthesis of lysine, threonine, methionine and
isoleucine may be similar to that of bacteria.
