After the roots of intact maizeseedling were treated with PEGHoagland's solution with an osmoticpotential of -- 0. 4 MPa for 24 h, therate of H~+ extrusion increased marked-ly in thc growing zone of thc 5thleaves. The increase of H~+ was almostcompletely inhibited by Na_3VO_4. 0. 1mmol/L (Table 1). It Has been sug-gested that the increase of the H~+ ex-trusion may be the result of plasmamembranc ATPase acitvity increasecaused bv water stress. Plasma membrane (PM ), Puri-fied by two phase partition with aque-ous polymer from growing zone ofmaize seedling leaves, possessed theATPase activity with an optimum pHof 6. 5 (Fig. 1) and was strongly in-hibited by vanadate. K~+ and Na~+stimulatcd its activity markedly (Fig.2). Water stress treatment increasedplasma membrane ATPase activity by1. 5 times (Table 2), and decreasedthe K_m of PM ATPase from 0. 33mmol/L to 0. 11 mmol/L (Table 3,Fig. 3). It was showed that waterstress treatment increased the affinityof PM ATPase for substrate ATP, and?_(max) rose from 0. 35 umol mg ~1 min 1to 0. 87 umol mg~(-1) min~(-1) (Table 3).When the roots of intact maize seedlingwere treated by different water stress-es, the ratio of phospholipids to pro-teins in PM changed (Fig. 4). TheATPase had the maximun activitywhen the ratio was 1. 05 (Fig. 5). The treatment with cycloheximideat 0. 1 mmol/L did not decrease thePM ATPase activity, even increased itslightly (Table 4). It was suggestedthat some protein which interfered inPM ATPase activity had been removedfrom plasma membranes.
