Proteins
on the Plasma Membrane
Acell surface localization of the gibberellin receptor is suggested
from the fact that gibberellin that has been bound to
microbeads that are unable to cross the plasma membrane is
still active in inducing -amylase production in aleurone
protoplasts (Hooley et al. 1991). In addition, microinjection
of GA3 into aleurone protoplasts had no effect, but when the
protoplasts were immersed in GA3 solution, they produced
-amylase (Gilroy and Jones 1994). These results suggest that
gibberellin acts on the outer face of the plasma membrane.
