Abstract

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC; EC 4.1.1.17) and its antizyme (Az), a protein non-competitive inhibitor of ODC, form a complex in germinated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Georgia) seeds. The ODC-Az complex is very stable, but dissociates by treatment with 10% ammonium sulfate. ODC-Az complex is present in the cytosol, and it can also be extracted from germinated barley seed chromatin with 2 M NaCl.
