Resolution of the Photosystem I and Photosystem II contributions to chlorophyll fluorescence of intact leaves at room temperature

Green leaves illuminated with photosynthetically active light emit red fluorescence, whose time-dependent intensity variations reflect photosynthetic electron transport (the Kautsky effect). Usually, fluorescence variations are discussed by considering only the contribution of PSII-associated chlorophyll a, although it is known that the fluorescence of PSI-associated chlorophyll a also contributes to the total fluorescence [Aust. J. Plant Physiol. 22 (1995) 131]. Because the fluorescence emitted by each photosystem cannot be measured separately by selecting the emission wavelength in in vivo conditions, the contribution of PSI to total fluorescence at room temperature is still in ambiguity. By using a diode array detector, we measured fluorescence emission spectra corresponding to the minimal (F(O)) and maximal (F(M)) fluorescence states. We showed that the different shapes of these spectra were mainly due to a higher contribution of PSI chlorophylls in the F(O) spectrum. By exciting PSI preferentially, we recorded a reference PSI emission spectrum in the near far-red region. From the F(O) and F(M) spectra and from this PSI reference spectrum, we derived specific PSI and PSII emission spectra in both the F(O) and F(M) states. This enables to estimate true value of the relative variable fluorescence of PSII, which was underestimated in previous works. Accurate separation of PSI-PSII fluorescence emission spectra will also enable further investigations of the distribution of excitation energy between PSI and PSII under in vivo conditions.     

Nuclear pea mutants deficient in chlorophyll b and the major polypeptide of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein of photosystem II

Eight chlorophyll b deficient nuclear mutants of pea (Pisum sativum L.) have been characterized by low temperature fluorescence emission spectra of their leaves and by the ultrastructure, photochemical activities and polypeptide compositions of the thylakoid membranes. The room temperature fluorescence induction kinetics of leaves and isolated thylakoids have also been recorded. In addition, the effects of Mg²⁺ on the fluorescence kinetics of the membranes have been investigated. The mutants are all deficient in the major polypeptide of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein of photosystem II. The low temperature fluorescence emission spectra of aurea-5106, xantha-5371 and –5820 show little or no fluorescence around 730 nm (photosystem I fluorescence), but possess maxima at 685 and 695 nm (photosystem II fluorescence). These three mutants have low photosystem II activities, but significant photosystem I activities. The long-wavelength fluorescence maximum is reduced for three other mutants. The Mg²⁺ effect on the variable component of the room temperature fluorescence (685 nm) induction kinetics is reduced in all mutants, and completely absent in aurea-5106 and xantha-5820. The thylakoid membranes of these 2 mutants are appressed pairwise in 2-disc grana of large diameter. Chlorotica-1-206A and–130A have significant long-wavelength maxima in the fluorescence spectra and show the largest Mg²⁺ enhancement of the variable part of the fluorescence kinetics. These two mutants have rather normally structured chloroplast membranes, though the stroma regions are reduced. The four remaining mutants are in several respects of an intermediate type.Abbreviations Chl chlorophyll - CPI Chi-protein complex I, F_o, F_v - F_m parameters of room temperature chlorophyll fluorescence induction kinetics - F685, F695 and F-1 components of low temperature chlorophyll emission with maximum at 685, 695 and ca 735 nm, respectively - PSI photosystem I - PSII photosystem II - LHCI and LHCII light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b complexes associated with PSI and PSII, respectively - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate

A retrieval algorithm to evaluate the Photosystem I and Photosystem II spectral contributions to leaf chlorophyll fluorescence at physiological temperatures

A new computational procedure to resolve the contribution of Photosystem I (PSI) and Photosystem II (PSII) to the leaf chlorophyll fluorescence emission spectra at room temperature has been developed. It is based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the leaf fluorescence emission spectra measured during the OI photochemical phase of fluorescence induction kinetics. During this phase, we can assume that only two spectral components are present, one of which is constant (PSI) and the other variable in intensity (PSII). Application of the PCA method to the measured fluorescence emission spectra of Ficus benjamina L. evidences that the temporal variation in the spectra can be ascribed to a single spectral component (the first principal component extracted by PCA), which can be considered to be a good approximation of the PSII fluorescence emission spectrum. The PSI fluorescence emission spectrum was deduced by difference between measured spectra and the first principal component. A single-band spectrum for the PSI fluorescence emission, peaked at about 735?nm, and a 2-band spectrum with maxima at 685 and 740?nm for the PSII were obtained. A linear combination of only these two spectral shapes produced a good fit for any measured emission spectrum of the leaf under investigation and can be used to obtain the fluorescence emission contributions of photosystems under different conditions. With the use of our approach, the dynamics of energy distribution between the two photosystems, such as state transition, can be monitored in vivo, directly at physiological temperatures. Separation of the PSI and PSII emission components can improve the understanding of the fluorescence signal changes induced by environmental factors or stress conditions on plants.     

Photo-inhibition and the Effects of Protein Phosphorylation on Electron Transport in Wheat Thylakoids

The kinetics of changes in photosystem I (PSI), photosystemII (PSII), and whole chain (PSII and PSI) electron transport,chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, the capacity to bind atrazineand the polypeptide profiles of thylakoids isolated from wheatleaves on exposure to a photon flux density of 2000 µmolm^–2 s^–1 were determined. Severe and similar levelsof photo-inhibitory damage to both PSII and whole chain electrontransport occurred and were correlated with decreases in theratio of variable to maximal fluorescence, the proportionalcontribution of the rapid a phase of the fluorescence kineticsand the capacity to bind atrazine. Severe photo-inhibition ofelectron transport was not associated with a major loss of chlorophyllor total thylakoid protein. However, a small decrease in a 70kDa polypeptide together with increases in a number of low molecularmass polypeptides (8–24 kDa) occurred. Phosphorylation of thylakoid polypeptides alleviated photo-inhibitionof PSII electron transport but stimulated photoinhibitory damageto whole chain electron transport. The consequences of suchphosphorylation-induced effects on photoinhibition in vivo areconsidered.

Chlorophyll-protein composition of the thylakoid membrane from Prochlorothrix hollandica, a prokaryote containing chlorophyll b

The chlorophyll-protein complexes of the thylakoid membrane from Prochlorothrix hollandica were identified following electrophoresis under nondenaturing conditions. Five complexes, CP1-CP5, were resolved and these green bands were analyzed by spectroscopic and immunological methods. CP1 contains the photosystem I (PSI) reaction center, as this complex quenched fluorescence at room temperature, and had a 77 K fluorescence emission peak at 717 nm. CP4 contains the major chlorophyll-a-binding proteins of the photosystem II (PSII) core, because this complex contained polypeptides which cross-reacted to antibodies raised against Chlamydomonas PSII proteins 5 and 6. Furthermore, fluorescence excitation studies at 77 K indicated that only a Chl a is bound to CP4. Complexes CP2, CP3 and CP5 contained functionally bound Chl a and b as judged by absorption spectroscopy at 20 degrees C and fluorescence excitation spectra at 77 K. CP2, CP3 and CP5 all contain polypeptides of 30-33 kDa which are immunologically distinct from the LHC-II complex of higher plant thylakoids.     

The effects of salt stress on photosynthetic electron transport and thylakoid membrane proteins in the cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis

The response of Spirulina (Arthrospira) platensis to high salt stress was investigated by incubating the cells in light of moderate intensity in the presence of 0.8 M NaCl. NaCl caused a decrease in photosystem II (PSII) mediated oxygen evolution activity and increase in photosystem I (PSI) activity and the amount of P700. Similarly maximal efficiency of PSII (Fv/Fm) and variable fluorescence (Fv/Fo) were also declined in salt-stressed cells. Western blot analysis reveal that the inhibition in PSII activity is due to a 40 % loss of a thylakoid membrane protein, known as D1, which is located in PSII reaction center. NaCl treatment of cells also resulted in the alterations of other thylakoid membrane proteins: most prominently, a dramatic diminishment of the 47-kDa chlorophyll protein (CP) and 94-kDa protein, and accumulation of a 17-kDa protein band were observed in SDS-PAGE. The changes in 47-kDa and 94-kDa proteins lead to the decreased energy transfer from light harvesting antenna to PSII, which was accompanied by alterations in the chlorophyll fluorescence emission spectra of whole cells and isolated thylakoids. Therefore we conclude that salt stress has various effects on photosynthetic electron transport activities due to the marked alterations in the composition of thylakoid membrane proteins.     

Excitation energy transfer in native and unstacked thylakoid membranes studied by low temperature and ultrafast fluorescence spectroscopy

In this work, the transfer of excitation energy was studied in native and cation-depletion induced, unstacked thylakoid membranes of spinach by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Fluorescence emission spectra at 5 K show an increase in photosystem I (PSI) emission upon unstacking, which suggests an increase of its antenna size. Fluorescence excitation measurements at 77 K indicate that the increase of PSI emission upon unstacking is caused both by a direct spillover from the photosystem II (PSII) core antenna and by a functional association of light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) to PSI, which is most likely caused by the formation of LHCII-LHCI-PSI supercomplexes. Time-resolved fluorescence measurements, both at room temperature and at 77 K, reveal differences in the fluorescence decay kinetics of stacked and unstacked membranes. Energy transfer between LHCII and PSI is observed to take place within 25 ps at room temperature and within 38 ps at 77 K, consistent with the formation of LHCII-LHCI-PSI supercomplexes. At the 150–160 ps timescale, both energy transfer from LHCII to PSI as well as spillover from the core antenna of PSII to PSI is shown to occur at 77 K. At room temperature the spillover and energy transfer to PSI is less clear at the 150 ps timescale, because these processes compete with charge separation in the PSII reaction center, which also takes place at a timescale of about 150 ps.     

Interaction of phycobilisomes with photosystem II dimers and photosystem I monomers and trimers in the cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis.

Distribution of phycobilisomes between photosystem I (PSI) and photosystem II (PSII) complexes in the cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis has been studied by analysis of the action spectra of H2 and O2 photoevolution and by analysis of the 77 K fluorescence excitation and emission spectra of the photosystems. PSI monomers and trimers were spectrally discriminated in the cell by the unique 760 nm low-temperature fluorescence, emitted by the trimers under reductive conditions. The phycobilisome-specific 625 nm peak was observed in the action spectra of both PSI and PSII, as well as in the 77 K fluorescence excitation spectra for chlorophyll emission at 695 nm (PSII), 730 nm (PSI monomers), and 760 nm (PSI trimers). The contributions of phycobilisomes to the absorption, action, and excitation spectra were derived from the in vivo absorption coefficients of phycobiliproteins and of chlorophyll. Analyzing the sum of PSI and PSII action spectra against the absorption spectrum and estimating the P700:P680 reaction center ratio of 5.7 in Spirulina, we calculated that PSII contained only 5% of the total chlorophyll, while PSI carried the greatest part, about 95%. Quantitative analysis of the obtained data showed that about 20% of phycobilisomes in Spirulina cells are bound to PSII, while 60% of phycobilisomes transfer the energy to PSI trimers, and the remaining 20% are associated with PSI monomers. A relevant model of organization of phycobilisomes and chlorophyll pigment-protein complexes in Spirulina is proposed. It is suggested that phycobilisomes are connected with PSII dimers, PSI trimers, and coupled PSI monomers.     

Heat-induced changes in photosystem I activity as measured with different electron donors in isolated spinach thylakoid membranes.

Heat-induced changes in photosystem I (PSI) have been studied in terms of rates of oxygen consumption using various donors (DCPIPH2, TMPDred and DADred), formation of photo-oxidized P700 and changes in Chl a fluorescence emission at 77 K. Linear heating of thylakoid membranes from 35 degrees C to 70 degrees C caused an enhancement in PSI-mediated electron transfer rates (DCPIPH2-->MV) up to 55 degrees C. However, no change was observed in PSI rates when other electron donors were used (TMPDred and DADred). Similarly, Chl a fluorescence emission spectra at 77 K of heat-treated thylakoid membranes did not show any increase in peak at 735 nm, however, a significant decrease was observed as a function of temperature in the peaks at 685 and 694 nm. In DCMU-treated control thylakoid membranes maximum photo-oxidized P700 was generated at g = 2.0025. In heat-treated thylakoid membranes maximum intensity of photo-oxidized P700 signal was observed at approximately 50-55 degrees C without DCMU treatment. The steady-state signal of the photo-oxidized P700 was studied in the presence of DCPIPH2 and TMPDred as electron donors in DCMU-treated control and in 50 degrees C treated thylakoid membranes. We present here the first of such comparative study of PSI activity in terms of the rates of oxygen consumption and re-reduction kinetics of photo-oxidized P700 in the presence of different electron donors. It appears that the formation of the P700+ signal in heat-treated thylakoid membranes is due to an inhibited electron supply from PSII and not due to spillover or antenna migration.
