Abstract
It has been demonstrated that protein content and concentration are higher in mononucleate tannin-cells than in the parenchyma cells of Sambucus racemosa. Cytoplasmic and nuclear free acid proteins markedly prevail here. It is believed that they may be enzymatic proteins. Increase of acid proteins content within the nucleus of tannin cells causes an increase of the nucleus size. The content of nuclear bound basic proteins in tannin cells, may be lower than in the neighbouring parenchymal cells.
