Regulation levels of photosynthesis processes

The basic mechanisms of kinetic regulation of photosynthetic processes are considered, which provide a strict light regulation of electron transfer in photosynthetic reaction centers and a more flexible regulation at the level of interaction of photosystems, transmembrane ion fluxes and coupling with dark reactions of the Calvin cycle. A generalized model was developed, which integrates the modern knowledge about photosynthetic processes of higher plants. The general principles of multilevel regulation in photosynthetic systems are discussed.
