Barley aleurone protoplasts, when exposed to Ga3 and Ca2+ synthesize and secrete the hydrolytic enzyme α -amylase (Bush et al., 1986). At the same time, protoplasts undergo important structural changes which reflect the elaboration of the membrane system involved in protein synthesis and secretion. The mobilization of lipid reserves may be a preliminar step which would provide energy as well as several components for the synthesis of membrane lipids.
