Abstract

Peptidyl proline hydroxylase inhibitors block the growth of cultured soybean (Glycine max) cells and bring about the disappearance of the major salt-extractable hydroxyproline-rich protein, the 33 kilodalton repetitive proline-rich protein (RPRP2). Three polypeptides of 28, 20, and 14 kilodalton that cross-react with an antibody to RPRP2 accumulate in the culture during steady-state growth. In the presence of the proline hydroxylase inhibitors, all of these repetitive proline-rich proteins disappear. These results indicate that the hydroxyproline-rich proteins play a role in cell growth, and that hydroxylation may regulate the steady-state level of at least one of these proteins by influencing its turnover.
