High rates of both cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation were measured in chloroplast lamellae isolated from purified guard cell protoplasts from Vicia faba L. Typical rates of light-dependent incorporation of 32P into ATP were 100 and 190 micromoles ATP per milligram chlorophyll per hour for noncyclic (water to ferricyanide) and cyclic (phenazine methosulfate) photophosphorylation, respectively. These rates were 50 to 80% of those observed with mesophyll chloroplasts. Noncyclic photophosphorylation in guard cell chloroplasts was completely inhibited by 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea supporting the notion that photophosphorylation is coupled to linear electron flow from photosystem II to photosystem I. Several lines of evidence indicated that contamination by mesophyll chloroplasts cannot account for the observed photophosphorylation rates. A comparison of the photon fluence dependence of noncyclic photophosphorylation in mesophyll and guard cell chloroplasts showed significant differences between the two preparations, with half saturation at 0.04 and 0.08 millimole per square meter per second, respectively. 相似文献

Levels of ferricyanide reduction, cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation were measured in chloroplasts of two cultivars
of pea and a comparison of their P/2e + ratios were made. No differences were observed in cyclic photophosphorylation or ferricyanide reduction but non-cyclic photophosphorylation
was lower in chloroplasts from the dwarf than the normal cultivar. Thus the P/2e + ratio of the dwarf was lower than the normal. Dwarf seedlings treated with gibberellic acid (GA 3) had similar rates of cyclic photophosphorylation as the untreated dwarf but non-cyclic photophosphorylation was lower as
was ferricyanide reduction. This resulted in P/2e + ratios that were higher in chloroplasts from the GA 3 treated dwarf seedlings than the untreated, and were the same as the untreated normal. Addition of GA 3 directly to the chloroplasts did not alter the activity in any way. Hence gibberellins do not directly affect changes in
chloroplastic activity but may conceivably be involved in a feed-back control system. 相似文献

The effects of nano-TiO 2 (rutile) on the photochemical reaction of chloroplasts of spinach were studied. The results showed that when spinach was
treated with 0.25% nano-TiO 2, the Hill reaction, such as the reduction rate of FeCy, and the rate of evolution oxygen of chloroplasts was accelerated
and noncyclic photophosphorylation (nc-PSP) activity of chloroplasts was higher than cyclic photophosphorylation (c-PSP) activity,
the chloroplast coupling was improved and activities of Mg 2+-ATPase and chloroplast coupling factor I (CF 1)-ATPase on the thylakoid membranes were obviously activated. It suggested that photosynthesis promoted by nano-TiO 2 might be related to activation of photochemical reaction of chloroplasts of spinach. 相似文献

Reactions of photosynthetic electron transport and photophosphorylation were studied in preparations from the blue-green alga, Phormidium luridum. Osmotic lysis of protoplasts proved to be a superior technique for the production of cell-free preparations with high enzymatic activity. Such lysed protoplasts sustain high rates of photophosphorylation coupled to the photo-reduction of NADP + or ferricyanide. P/2e − ratios close to unity were routinely observed. The same preparations, and also those prepared by grinding the cells in solutions containing sucrose or ethylene glycol, are active in cyclic photophosphorylation mediated by phenazine methosulfate or dichloro-phenolindophenol. The particles prepared by grinding the cells are, however, inactive in non-cyclic photophosphorylation. Extensive washing of the membranes with solutions containing sucrose removes the majority of the residual soluble fraction of the algal cell which includes cytochromes C554 and C549 and phycocyanin. Cyclic photophosphorylation activity is unimpaired by this treatment, but is abolished when the membranes are washed with very dilute buffers. This activity is restored by the addition of a soluble protein which is not a known redox constituent such as cytochrome C554 or plastocyanin, and may be a coupling factor. Analysis of the well-washed membranes by low temperature (77°K) difference spectrophotometry reveals the presence of cytochrome b6 and a bound form of cytochrome C554 in proportions similar to that found in higher plant chloroplasts. The concentration of the membrane-bound cytochrome C554, relative to cytochrome b6 is not altered by extensive washing, sonication or treatment with 1% digitonin. This indicates that this cytochrome is an integral component of the cytoplasmic lamellae and we suggest that it is of functional significance. The soluble form of cytochrome C554, which is present in concentrations about 3-fold higher than the bound form, depending upon growth conditions, is not essential for cyclic photophosphorylation. The concentration of cytochrome b6: chlorophyll a was found to be 1:500. Under the conditions employed, we were unable to detect a bound form of the low potential cytochrome C549. 相似文献

ATP and pyrophosphate at high concentration (> 1 mM) inhibited photophosphorylation of isolated spinach chloroplasts in the normal salt medium and did not cause stimulation of electron transport. The inhibition of photophosphorylation by ATP or pyrophosphate was shown to be abolished by the addition of excess MgCl 2, ADP and phosphate. It has been demonstrated that the rates of photophosphorylation in the absence and presence of ATP or pyrophosphate are determined similarly by the concentrations of magnesium-ADP (Mg · ADP ?) and magnesium-phosphate (Mg · P i) complexes.It is highly probable that Mg · ADP ? and Mg · P i, but not free ADP and free phosphate, are the active form of the substrates of photophosphorylation. This is in support of the view that ATP inhibits photophosphorylation by decreasing the concentration of Mg 2+ which is available for the formation of the complex with ADP and phosphate. 相似文献

The influence of a series of anions on photosynthetic reaction rates in spinach chloroplasts is descibed. For the most part, the stimulatory and inhibitory effects of these ions can be related to their chaotropic properties, although F −, a nonchaotropic anion, inhibits photosystem II reactions and SO 4 2− and F − inhibit photophosphorylation. Other exceptions include less severe effects of nitrate than expected and unusual sensitivity to iodide by photosystem I. Since free iodine inhibits photosystem I the iodine effect may be related to photooxidation of I − to I 0 by photosystem I. Cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation usually show greater sensitivity to each chaotrope than photosystems I and II activity, which suggests that phosphorylation factors, such as CF 1, are easily detached or dissociated. Bromide is unusual in that it appears to affect photophosphorylation and electron transport at similar low concentrations. The type of cation appears to influence the response to the chaotropic anion, especially as increased inhibition by chloride in the presence of magnesium in photophosphorylation reactions. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS The rate of photophosphorylation by Euglena chloroplasts depends not only on the physiologic stage of cell growth but also on the stage of development of chloroplasts in these cells at the time of harvesting. Both of these processes can be markedly influenced by a number of environmental factors; they are affected neither in a parallel manner nor completely independent of each other. In addition, the rate of photophosphorylation of chloroplasts can also be greatly affected by the conditions employed for their isolation. After investigating the various environmental factors both during cell growth and chloroplast isolation, we have developed a procedure which increased the photophosphorylation rate of our chloroplast preparations more than 5-fold, giving a specific activity in the range of 100-150 μmoles ATP/mg chlorophyll/hr routinely. The procedure is simple, needs no special equipment and requires only 2 or 3 days for cell growth. 相似文献

The pigment content and rates of primary photosynthetic reactions were determined in chloroplasts of 14-day-old pine ( Pinus silvestris L.) seedlings grown in light and darkness. In addition, the functional activities were investigated in chloroplasts from dark-grown seedlings exposed to white, red ( = 670 nm), and red + far-red ( = 748 nm) light. Dark-grown seedlings were capable of performing the Hill reaction, noncyclic photophosphorylation, and phenazine methosulfate–supported photophosphorylation, although the reaction rates in chloroplasts from dark-grown plants were considerably lower than in preparations from light-grown plants. Light treatment of dark-grown seedlings rapidly activated the photoreduction of ferricyanide and photophosphorylation, while the additional accumulation of green pigments started only after a lag period of two hours. Preirradiation of dark-grown seedlings with red light stimulated the formation of pigments, especially chlorophyll b, as well as the functional activity of chloroplasts. When far-red light was applied after red-light exposure, the processes examined were inhibited. It is concluded that accumulation of the light-harvesting complex and functional activities of chloroplasts at the photosystem II level in pine seedlings are controlled by the phytochrome. 相似文献

Enhancement of Mg 2+-dependent ATPase activity in Euglena gracilis chloroplasts by light in the presence of a sulfhydryl compound has been demonstrated. A number of uncouplers and energy transfer inhibitors were studied for their effects on the light enhancement of ATPase activity simultaneously with their effects on photophosphorylation. Results suggest that the light-enhanced ATPase activity in Euglena chloroplasts is an energy-initiated process and that the energy is supplied through electron flow upon illumination of the chloroplasts. However, by studying the difference in their response toward the various uncouplers and inhibitors, it seems that the two processes (photohydrolysis of ATP and photophosphorylation) share only the latter part of their energy-transferring pathway. 相似文献

Hill reaction and noncyclic photophosphorylation of isolated class C chloroplasts of spruce ( Picea abies (L.) Karst.), as well as 14CO 2 fixation by whole needles at constant laboratory conditions proceeded at high rates during spring and early summer, declined during late summer and autumn by about 60%, remained at this level during winter, and recovered quickly in early spring. During summer, the whole needles proved to be frost labile, since after exposure to-20°C and careful thawing, fast chlorophyll degradation occurred. In addition, only photosynthetically inactive chloroplasts could be isolated from those precooled needles. On the contrary, during winter the photochemical activities of plastids from freshly harvested needles did not differ from those of artificially frozen-thawed needles. When isolated spruce chloroplasts were exposed to the same subfreezing temperatures as the whole needles, no influence of freezing on the photochemical activities was observed, irrespective of whether the plastids were isolated from frost sensitive or frost hardened needles. It is concluded that frost damage to spruce chloroplasts is due to an attack of membrane toxic compounds or lytic enzymes which were liberated upon freezing from more labile compartments. Frost hardening of the chloroplasts, as determined by the stability of chlorophyll after exposure of the needles to low temperatures, as well as by the isolation of photosynthetically active chloroplasts from such precooled needles, appeared to depend at least on 2 processes: (i) an alteration of the composition of the photosynthetically active membranes and (ii) and additional stabilization of these membranes by protecting substances. The first process was indicated by a large increase (decrease) of the capability of isolated chloroplasts for PMS-mediated photophosphorylation which accompanied natural or artificial frost hardening (dehardening). Production of cryoprotecting compounds was suggested by a significant higher stability against NaCl observed with class C chloroplasts isolated from frost hardened needles as compared to that of plastids from frost labile material. The decrease of the capability for both, the ferricyanide dependent photoreactions of the plastids and the CO 2 fixation by whole needles, which was observed during the frost hardening phase, cannot be due to freezing injuries; it rather appears to be a consequence of the frost hardening process. 相似文献

Summary The effect of freezing, desiccation and various electrolytes on photophosphorylation, electron transport and some enzyme reactions of isolated spinach chloroplasts has been investigated. Freezing of broken chloroplasts took place at-25°C for 3 hrs; desiccation was performed at +2°C in vacuo over CaCl 2 for 3 hrs. The influence of various electrolytes during freezing or drying or during incubation of thylakoids or stroma enzymes for 3 hrs at +2°C in electrolyte solutions was determined. After treatment, the activities of a number of enzymes and enzyme systems were measured under normal conditions, e. g. in the absence of elevated electrolyte levels in a reaction medium which contained only the substrates and cofactors which are necessary for the respective enzyme reactions.Only photophosphorylation and electron transport were affected by freezing, desiccation and high concentrations of electrolytes; various soluble enzymes investigated here were not inactivated under the same conditions. In general, mild dehydration and lower concentrations of electrolytes resulted in an irreversible inactivation of ATP synthesis but did not impair ferricyanide reduction. With increasing dehydration or at higher concentrations of electrolytes the Hill reaction was also inhibited. In a certain range of dehydration and electrolyte concentration uncoupling of photophosphorylation from electron transport took place. Sugar protects the sensitive structures against the deleterious effect of both dehydration and high concentration of electrolytes.Various electrolytes affected thylakoid membranes differently. Inactivation of the membranes increased with increasing ion radius and decreasing hydration envelope of univalent or divalent cations. Divalent cations were more destructive than univalent cations. Anions did not follow these rules. Within a group of similar anions (halides or organic anions) effectivity decreased with increasing hydration envelope. On a molar basis, polyvalent anions were less effective than univalent anions. Inactivation by anions followed Hofmeister's series in seversed order. However, exceptions were observed and it appears that various ions affect the membrane in a specific manner.Inactivation of photophosphorylation and electron transport due to freezing or desiccation is identical to that due to high concentrations of electrolytes. This suggests that during dehydration due to freezing or drying the concentration of electrolytes in the remaining solution is responsible for the inactivation of the sensitive membranes. 相似文献

Abscisic acid (ABA) inhibited the light-induced opening of stomata in isolated epidermal strips of Commelina benghalensis. It did not alter stomatal closure in the dark. The ABA-induced inhibition in light was released under conditions conducive for cyclic photophosphorylation and remarkably reversed by ATP in the presence of pyruvate. Cyclic photophosphorylation rates of isolated guard cell chloroplasts were significantly reduced by ABA. It is proposed that the direct effect of ABA on stomatal opening was mediated in two ways: (1) by inhibition of cyclic photophosphorylation activities of guard cell chloroplasts and (2) by blocking organic acid formation in guard cells. 相似文献

The effects of a photoinhibition treatment (PIT) on electron transport and photophosphorylation reactions were measured in chloroplasts isolated from triazine-resistant and susceptible Chenopodium album plants grown under high and low irradiance. Electron transport dependent on photosystem I (PSI) alone was much less affected by PIT than that dependent on both photosystem II (PSII) and PSI. There was a smaller difference in susceptibility to PIT between the photophosphorylation activitity dependent on PSI alone and that dependent on both PSII and PSI. Because in all cases photophosphorylation activity decreased faster upon PIT than the rate of electron transport, we conclude that photoinhibition causes a gradual uncoupling of electron transport with phosphorylation. Since the extent of the light-induced proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane decreased upon PIT, it is suggested that photoinhibiton causes a proton leakiness of the membrane. We have found no significant differences to PIT of the various reactions measured in chloroplasts isolated from triazine-resistant and susceptible plants. We have also not observed any significant differences to PIT of the photophosphorylation reactions in chloroplasts of plants grown under low irradiance, compared with those grown under high irradiance. However, the electron transport reactions in chloroplasts from plants grown under low irradiance appeared to be somewhat less sensitive to PIT than those grown under high irradiance. 相似文献

Washing chloroplasts with a high concentration of Tris-Cl - buffercaused Cl - dependent inhibition of photophosphorylation, light-inducedpH rise and light-triggered Mg 2+-dependent ATPase activity.The inhibition of these activities was largely prevented bythe presence of 10 4 M ADP or ATP during Tris washing,especially that of Mg 2+-ATPase activity. The results were interpretedas suggesting that the inactivation of light-triggered ATPaseactivity in chloroplasts by chloride is one of the causes ofthe uncoupling of chloroplasts with Tris washing.

Intact spinach chloroplasts, capable of evolving O 2 in response to CO 2 at rates greater than 70 μmol/h · mg of chlorophyll, synthesize glycolate from added dihydroxyacetone phosphate, ribose 5-phosphate, or xylulose 5-phosphate, when illuminated in the presence of O 2. The synthesis of glycolate from these compounds is dependent upon photophosphorylation and is inhibited by each of the three classes of photophosphorylation inhibitors [Izawa, S., and Good, N. E. (1972) in Methods in Enzymology, Vol. 24, Part B, pp. 355–377)]: an uncoupler, carbonylcyanide-4-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP), an energy transfer inhibitor, Dio-9, and a phosphate analog, arsenate. Neither arsenate nor Dio-9 causes the collapse of the light-generated proton gradient between thylakoid and stroma compartments of the chloroplasts, so that the inhibition of glycolate synthesis by these compounds cannot be ascribed to an inactivation of Calvin cycle enzymes thought to be associated with the collapse of such a proton gradient. The dependency of glycolate synthesis upon photophosphorylation indicates that an ATP-consuming reaction(s) is involved in the conversion of the substrates (triose and pentose monophosphates) to glycolate. The formation of dihydroxyethylthiamine pyrophosphate, the “active glycolaldehyde” intermediate of the transketolase reaction, from triose and pentose monophosphates has no known requirements for ATP. On the other hand, the conversion of both triose and pentose monophosphates to ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, the substrate for the ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate oxygenase reaction, requires ATP. It is concluded that glycolate synthesis by intact isolated chloroplasts is primarily the result of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate oxygenase activity. No substantial role in glycolate synthesis can be attributed to the oxidation of dihydroxyethylthiamine pyrophosphate, the intermediate of the transketolase reaction. 相似文献

2-Chloromercuri 4,6-dinitrophenol inhibited photosystem I mediated photochemical reactions of Euphorbia hirta chloroplasts. The compound inhibited cyclic photophosphorylation and NADP reduction (in the presence of dichlorophenol indophenol and ascorbate couple) at concentrations as low as 10 ?6m. At higher concentrations (above 10 ?4m), however, it affected all NADP reductions but still showed negligible effect on ferricyanide reduction or noncyclic photophosphorylation. The compound may be used as an inhibitor of cyclic photophosphorylation. 相似文献

Photophosphorylation of spinach chloroplasts was uncoupled bypreincubation at 0°C in the presence of a neutral salt atpH 6.0 to 6.5 ("cold-anion uncoupling"). Preincubation at 20°Ccaused some depression in both photophosphorylation and theHill reaction, but the efficiency of photophosphorylation wasnot depressed much. Low pH values accelerated uncoupling. Theeffectiveness of anions tested as sodium salts in inducing uncouplingwas of the order: SCN->>NO 3>Cl >SO 42There was little difference in effectiveness among monovalentcations; LiCl, NaCl, KCl, RbCl and CsCl. 10 4M ATP orADP largely protected chloroplasts from cold-anion uncoupling.Addition of EDTA-extract or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to uncoupledchloroplasts partially restored photophosphorylation. Theseobservations suggest that inactivation of chloroplast ATPaseis one cause of cold-anion uncoupling. At low light intensities, the time lag and the depression ofthe efficiency of photophosphorylation were more pronouncedin cold-anion uncoupled chloroplasts than in the control chloroplasts.

An investigation of the action of phenylmereuric acetate (PMA) and phosphate on light-induced shrinkage (measured by light scattering and Coulter Counter techniques) and on photosynthetic reactions in spinach chloroplasts led to the following conclusions: - 1) PMA stimulated light-induced shrinkage (under conditions of cyclic and non-cyclic electron flow) at concentrations which completely inhibited cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) reduction, though ferricyanide reduction was activated. Although PMA inhibited NADP reduction (probably because this sulfhydryl reagent interfered with the ferredoxin-NADP rednetase) it ean also be considered an uncoiipler (when ferricyanide is the electron acceptor).
- 2) Phosphate maximized light-induced shrinkage (under conditions of cyclic and non cyclic electron flow) at concentrations which did not affect ferricyanide reduction but caused a 40 to 50 per cent inhibition of NADP reduction.
- 3) The pattern of the light scattering response to these two compounds was quite different. In the presence of PMA, the forward (light on) and hack (light off) reactions went to completion rapidly. In the presence of phosphate, the back reaction was rapid but, in the light-induced reaction, three phases were discernible.
- 4) Compared with uncouplers such as NH4Cl, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone, pentachlorophenol, and dicoumarol, all of which inhibited both photophosphorylation and conformational changes in chloroplasts, PMA (like quinacrine) had a specific action since it inhibited photophosphorylation while shrinkage was stimulated.
- 5) It appeared that PMA acted at a site beyond the formation of high energy inter-mediates and that, in the absence of photophosphorylation, more energy was diverted to mechanical work (shrinkage). It would seem that, in a cyclic electron flow system, in which ATP synthesis is blocked at a late step (e.g. by PMA), shrinkage may be an indirect method for measuring electron flow.

The phytotoxic effects of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) were investigatedby fumigating spinach plants with SO 2. Inhibition of 2,6-dichloroindophenol(DCIP) photoreduction was observed in spinach chloroplasts isolatedfrom fumigated leaves. NADP and DCIP photoreductions were inhibitedto a similar extent by fumigation with 2.0 ppm SO 2 but electronflow from reduced DCIP to NADP was not affected. When electronflow from H 2O to NADP was inhibited by 36%, a 39% inhibitionof non-cyclic photophosphorylation was observed. However, phenazinemethosulfate(PMS)-catalyzed cyclic photophosphorylation wasas active as in the control chloroplasts. Moreover, in the presenceof PMS, no significant suppression was observed in the extentof light-induced H + uptake or in the rate of H + efflux in chloroplasts.From these results, it can be concluded that SO 2 inhibits theelectron flow driven by photosystem II when plants have beenfumigated with SO 2. In spinach leaves fumigated with SO 2, the rate of photosyntheticO 2 evolution was reduced under light-limited conditions, whilethe rate of respiratory O 2 uptake changed slightly.

The mechanism of the fact that manganese deprivation and cerium addition affect the photochemical efficiency of plants is
unclear. In this study, we investigated the improvement by cerium of the damage of the photochemical function of maize chloroplasts
under manganese-deprived stress. Chlorophyll fluorescence induction measurements showed that the ratio of variable to maximum
fluorescence (Fv/Fm) underwent great decreases under manganese deficiency, which was attributed to the reduction of intrinsic
quantum efficiency of the photosystem II units. The electron flow between the two photosystems, activities of Mg 2+–ATPase and Ca 2+–ATPase, and rate of photophosphorylation on the thylakoid membrane of maize chloroplasts were reduced significantly by exposure
to manganese deprivation. Furthermore, the inhibition of cyclic photophosphorylation was more severe than non-cyclic photophosphorylation
under manganese deficiency. However, added cerium could relieve the inhibition of the photochemical reaction caused by manganese
deprivation in maize chloroplasts. It implied that manganese deprivation could disturb photochemical reaction of chloroplasts
strongly, which could be improved by cerium addition. 相似文献
