Notes
In Euglena gracilis Z, a considerably high activity of mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase occurred and change of it was accompanied by a cell cycle induced by a light-dark cycle. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by L-arginine and supported in the presence of poly-L-arginine as a substrate, indicating that ADP-ribosylated amino acid is an arginine residue. Arginine : mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity was found in the chloroplasts, mitochondria, microsomes and cytosol as judged from a marker enzyme activities and the activity in each organelle fluctuated with the cell cycle.
