Cytochemical and immunocytochemical methods were used to localize photosystems I and II in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Himalaya) chloroplasts. PSI activity, monitored by diaminobenzidine oxidation, was associated with the lumen side of the thylakoids of both grana and stroma lamellae. The P700 chlorophyll a protein, the reaction center of PSI, was localized on thin sections of barley chloroplasts using monospecific antibodies to this protein and the peroxidase-antiperoxidase procedure. Results obtained by immunocytochemistry were similar to those of the diaminobenzidine oxidation: both grana and stroma lamellae contained immunocytochemically reactive material. Both the grana and stroma lamellae were also labeled when isolated thylakoids were reacted with the P700 chlorophyll a protein antiserum and then processed by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase procedure. PSII activity was localized cytochemically by monitoring the photoreduction of thiocarbamyl nitroblue tetrazolium, a reaction sensitive to the PSII inhibitor, DCMU. PSII reactions occurred primarily on the grana lamellae, with weaker reactions on the stroma lamellae. 相似文献

The polypeptide composition of whole thylakoids and membrane subfragments was studied by using a modified two-dimensional gel electrophoresis technique of O'Farrell [J. Biol. Chem. 250, 4007-4021 (1975)]. The modifications were lithium dodecyl sulphate solubilization instead instead of SDS, reverse isofocusing and sensitive silver staining procedure. This high-resolution technique allowed us to separate and identify about 170 polypeptides of thylakoid membranes. After separating grana and stroma thylakoids it was found that both types of lamellae contained nearly equal amounts of polypeptides, but about 70 polypeptides were different in the two preparations. In grana thylakoids, 54 polypeptides out of 95 were found to be mainly present in grana and 31 of them were only present in grana preparations. In stroma membranes, 43 polypeptides out of 99 were mainly present in stroma lamellae and 38 of these polypeptides were exclusively present in stroma lamellae. In a functional photosystem II preparation, 61 individual polypeptides could be distinguished. Most of these polypeptides were present in both grana and stroma lamellae, but 22 of them were more pronounced in grana than in stroma lamellae. 9 polypeptides of photosystem II were distinctly different in grana and stroma lamellae, and these differences may connect closely with the functional differences of photosystem II in the two types of thylakoids. 相似文献

The relative proportion of stroma lamellae and grana end membranes was determined from electron micrographs of 58 chloroplasts from 21 different plant species. The percentage of grana end membranes varied between 1 and 21% of the total thylakoid membrane indicating a large variation in the size of grana stacks. By contrast the stroma lamellae account for 20.3 ± 2.5 ( sd )% of the total thylakoid membrane. A plot of percentage stroma lamellae against percentage of grana end membranes fits a straight line with a slope of zero showing that the proportion of stroma lamellae is independent of the size of the grana stacks. That stroma lamellae account for about 20% of the thylakoid membrane is in agreement with fragmentation and separation analysis (Gadjieva et al . Biochim. Biophys. Acta 144: 92–100, 1999). Chloroplasts from spinach, grown under high or low light, were fragmented by sonication and separated by countercurrent distribution into two vesicle populations originating from grana and stroma lamellae plus end membranes, respectively. The separation diagrams were very similar lending independent support for the notion that the proportion of stroma lamellae is constant. The results are discussed in relation to the composition and function of the chloroplast in plants grown under different environmental conditions, and in relation to a recent quantitative model for the thylakoid (Albertsson, Trends Plant Sci. 6: 349–354, 2001). 相似文献

The proteins from both grana and stroma lamellae of maize (Zea mays) mesophyll plastids and from maize bundle sheath plastid membranes have been compared by electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels using a discontinuous buffer system. Peptide differences between grana and stroma lamellae were essentially quantitative and not qualitative. Bundle sheath plastid membrane peptides more closely resembled those of the ultrastructurally similar stroma lamellae. However, bundle sheath membranes contained several peptides not apparent in the stroma lamellae. 相似文献

The relative molar amounts of glycerolipids are similar in grana and stroma lamellae, as are the ratios of total glycerolipid to weight of membrane protein. However the chlorophyll content relative to protein of grana lamellae is about 40% higher than that of stroma lamellae from the same preparation. Previous reports of chemical composition or enzyme activity based on chlorophyll alone can be highly misleading. The large functional and conformational differences between these two membranes may be related to these differences in pigment content, but are likely to result primarily from qualitative protein differences. The data are in accord with a membrane model in which nonpolar regions of membrane protein bind lipid in fairly constant amounts. 相似文献

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) was used to quantify Photosystem I (PSI) and PSII in vesicles originating from a series of well-defined but different domains of the thylakoid membrane in spinach prepared by non-detergent techniques. Thylakoids from spinach were fragmented by sonication and separated by aqueous polymer two-phase partitioning into vesicles originating from grana and stroma lamellae. The grana vesicles were further sonicated and separated into two vesicle preparations originating from the grana margins and the appressed domains of grana (the grana core), respectively. PSI and PSII were determined in the same samples from the maximal size of the EPR signal from P700(+) and Y(D)( .-), respectively. The following PSI/PSII ratios were found: thylakoids, 1.13; grana vesicles, 0.43; grana core, 0.25; grana margins, 1.28; stroma lamellae 3.10. In a sub-fraction of the stroma lamellae, denoted Y-100, PSI was highly enriched and the PSI/PSII ratio was 13. The antenna size of the respective photosystems was calculated from the experimental data and the assumption that a PSII center in the stroma lamellae (PSIIbeta) has an antenna size of 100 Chl. This gave the following results: PSI in grana margins (PSIalpha) 300, PSI (PSIbeta) in stroma lamellae 214, PSII in grana core (PSIIalpha) 280. The results suggest that PSI in grana margins have two additional light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) trimers per reaction center compared to PSI in stroma lamellae, and that PSII in grana has four LHCII trimers per monomer compared to PSII in stroma lamellae. Calculation of the total chlorophyll associated with PSI and PSII, respectively, suggests that more chlorophyll (about 10%) is associated with PSI than with PSII. 相似文献

The electron transport properties of photosystem II (PSII) from five different domains of the thylakoid membrane were analyzed by flash-induced fluorescence kinetics. These domains are the entire grana, the grana core, the margins from the grana, the stroma lamellae, and the Y100 fraction (which represent more purified stroma lamellae). The two first fractions originate from appressed grana membranes and have PSII with a high proportion of O(2)-evolving centers (80-90%) and efficient electron transport on the acceptor side. About 30% of the granal PSII centers were found in the margin fraction. Two-thirds of those PSII centers evolve O(2), but the electron transfer on the acceptor side is slowed. PSII from the stroma lamellae was less active. The fraction containing the entire stroma has only 43% O(2)-evolving PSII centers and slow electron transfer on the acceptor side. In contrast, PSII centers of the Y100 fraction show no O(2) evolution and were unable to reduce Q(B). Flash-induced fluorescence decay measurements in the presence of DCMU give information about the integrity of the donor side of PSII. We were able to distinguish between PSII centers with a functional Mn cluster and without any Mn cluster, and PSII centers which undergo photoactivation and have a partially assembled Mn cluster. From this analysis, we propose the existence of a PSII activity gradient in the thylakoid membrane. The gradient is directed from the stroma lamellae, where the Mn cluster is absent or inactive, via the margins where photoactivation accelerates, to the grana core domain where PSII is fully photoactivated. The photoactivation process correlates to the PSII diffusion along the membrane and is initiated in the stroma lamellae while the final steps take place in the appressed regions of the grana core. The margin domain is seemingly very important in this process. 相似文献

Density gradient separation of plastids from leaf and root tissue was carried out. The distribution in the gradients of the activity of the following enzymes was determined: nitrite reductase, glutamine synthetase, acetolactate synthetase, aspartate aminotransferase, catalase, cytochrome oxidase, and triosephosphate isomerase. The distribution of chlorophyll was followed in gradients from leaf tissue. The presence of plastids that have retained their stroma enzymes was denoted by a peak of triosephosphate isomerase activity. Coincidental with this peak were bands of nitrite reductase, acetolactate synthetase, glutamine synthetase, and aspartate aminotransferase activity. The results suggest that most, if not all, the nitrite reductase and acetolactate synthetase activity of the cell is in the plastids. The plastids were found to contain only part of the total glutamine synthetase, aspartate aminotransferase, and triosephosphate dehydrogenase activity in the cell. Some evidence was obtained for low levels of glutamate dehydrogenase activity in chloroplasts. 相似文献

The isoelectric points of unbroken chloroplast lamellae and various subchloroplast fractions, including a preparation of inside-out thylakoids, have been determined using aqueous two-phase systems containing dextran and charged polyethylene glycol. When the amounts of material in the top phase in a phase system with the positively charged trimethylamino polyethylene glycol are plotted against pH the curve intersects the corresponding curve obtained from phase systems with the negatively charged polyethylene glycol sulfonate. This cross-point can be correlated with the isoelectric point of the material.The cross-point for unbroken chloroplast lamellae was found to be around pH 4.7. Mechanical disintegration lowered the cross-point to around pH 4.4, probably because of exposure of new membrane surfaces. The disintegrated chloroplasts were fractionated by differential centrifugation to separate the grana and stroma lamellae. The stroma lamellae vesicles showed the same isoelectric point as the unbroken lamellae, while a cross-point at pH 4.3 was obtained for the grana-enriched fraction. For thylakoid membranes destacked under low salt conditions the cross-point was 0.3 pH unit lower than for membranes originating exclusively from the stroma lamellae. The most acidic cross-point (pH 4.1) was observed for the fraction enriched in inside-out grana thylakoids. It is suggested that the differences in isoelectric point between various subchloroplast fractions reflect a heterogeneous arrangement of surface charge along and across the thylakoid membrane. 相似文献

Phosphorylation in vitro of the light-harvesting chlorophyll protein complex associated with Photosystem II (LHCII) resulted in the lateral migration of a subpopulation of LHCII from the grana to the stroma lamellae. This movement was characterized by a decrease in the chlorophyll ratio and an increase in the 77 K fluorescence emission at 681 nm in the stroma lamellae following phosphorylation. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that the principal phosphoproteins under these conditions were polypeptides of 26–27 kDa. These polypeptides increased in relative amount in the stroma lamellae and decreased in the grana during phosphorylation. Pulse/chase experiments confirmed that the polypeptides were labelled in the grana and moved to the stroma lamellae in the subsequent chase period. A fraction at the phospho-LHCII, however, was unable to move and remained associated with the grana fraction. LHCII which moved out into the stroma lamellae effectively sensitized Photosystem I (PS I), since the ability to excite fluorescence emission at 735 nm (at 77 K) by chlorophyll b was increased following phosphorylation. These data support the ‘mobile antenna’ hypothesis proposed by Kyle, Staehelin and Arntzen (Arch. Biochem. Biophys. (1983) 222, 527–541) which states that the alterations in the excitation-energy distribution induced by LHCII phosphorylation are, in part, due to the change in absorptive cross-section of PS II and PS I, resulting specifically from the movement of LHCII antennae chlorophylls from the PS-II-enriched grana to the PS-I-enriched stroma lamellae. 相似文献

The supramolecular organization of photosystem II (PSII) was characterized in distinct domains of the thylakoid membrane, the grana core, the grana margins, the stroma lamellae, and the so-called Y100 fraction. PSII supercomplexes, PSII core dimers, PSII core monomers, PSII core monomers lacking the CP43 subunit, and PSII reaction centers were resolved and quantified by blue native PAGE, SDS-PAGE for the second dimension, and immunoanalysis of the D1 protein. Dimeric PSII (PSII supercomplexes and PSII core dimers) dominate in the core part of the thylakoid granum, whereas the monomeric PSII prevails in the stroma lamellae. Considerable amounts of PSII monomers lacking the CP43 protein and PSII reaction centers (D1-D2-cytochrome b559 complex) were found in the stroma lamellae. Our quantitative picture of the supramolecular composition of PSII, which is totally different between different domains of the thylakoid membrane, is discussed with respect to the function of PSII in each fraction. Steady state electron transfer, flash-induced fluorescence decay, and EPR analysis revealed that nearly all of the dimeric forms represent oxygen-evolving PSII centers. PSII core monomers were heterogeneous, and a large fraction did not evolve oxygen. PSII monomers without the CP43 protein and PSII reaction centers showed no oxygen-evolving activity. 相似文献

From chloroplasts of 10-day-old pea seedlings exposed to the light for 19 h, two fractions have been isolated. One of them is rich in lamellae of the stroma, and the other is rich in thylakoids and fragments of the grana. These fractions have been obtained after centrifugation of chloroplasts disrupted by osmotic shock in a discontinuous sucrose gradient. The fraction containing thylakoids of grana differs from the fraction of lamellae of the stroma in its higher content of RNA and DNA as related to protein and in the capacity to incorporate intensively 14C amino acids into proteins. After its treatment with detergents (0.5% sodium deoxycholate and 0.4% Triton X-100) and repeated centrifugation in the discontinuous sucrose gradient it dissociates further into two fractions. During electron microscopic studies one of these fractions displays partially disrupted grana and the other exhibits extensive networks of polyribosomes incompletely liberated from proteins, including the de novo synthesized protein.The similar treatment of the fraction rich in lamellae of the stroma does not result in the liberation of polyribosomes.It is concluded that in this stage of chloroplast development, polyribosomes occurring in the lamellae system are localized in the thylakoids of grana and are not bound to lamellae of the stroma. 相似文献

Grana and stroma lamellae fractions prepared from illuminated chloroplasts (Lactuca sativa L. var. Manoa) by French press treatment contained less violaxanthin and more zeaxanthin than the corresponding fractions from dark controls. In both fractions, only part of the total violaxanthin was de-epoxidized under illumination, and the ratio of de-epoxidized and unchanged violaxanthin was similar. This not only shows that the de-epoxidation system is present in both grana and stroma thylakoids but also that violaxanthin is heterogeneous in both membranes. The presence and similarity of the de-epoxidation system in grana and stroma lamellae suggest that the function of the violaxanthin cycle is linked to photosynthetic activities which are common to both types of membranes. 相似文献

Recent work on the domain organization of the thylakoid is reviewed and a model for the thylakoid of higher plants is presented. According to this model the thylakoid membrane is divided into three main domains: the stroma lamellae, the grana margins and the grana core (partitions). These have different biochemical compositions and have specialized functions. Linear electron transport occurs in the grana while cyclic electron transport is restricted to the stroma lamellae. This model is based on the following results and considerations. (1) There is no good candidate for a long-range mobile redox carrier between PS II in the grana and PS I in the stroma lamellae. The lateral diffusion of plastoquinone and plastocyanin is severely restricted by macromolecular crowding in the membrane and the lumen respectively. (2) There is an excess of 14±18% chlorophyll associated with PS I over that of PS II. This excess is assumed to be localized in the stroma lamellae where PS I drives cyclic electron transport. (3) For several plant species, the stroma lamellae account for 20±3% of the thylakoid membrane and the grana (including the appressed regions, margins and end membranes) for the remaining 80%. The amount of stroma lamellae (20%) corresponds to the excess (14–18%) of chlorophyll associated with PS I. (4) The model predicts a quantum requirement of about 10 quanta per oxygen molecule evolved, which is in good agreement with experimentally observed values. (5) There are at least two pools of each of the following components: PS I, PS II, cytochrome bf complex, plastocyanin, ATP synthase and plastoquinone. One pool is in the grana and the other in the stroma compartments. So far, it has been demonstrated that the PS I, PS II and cytochrome bf complexes each differ in their respective pools.Abbreviations PS I and PS II

Lysed chloroplasts from several higher plants synthesized ent-kaurene from copalyl pyrophosphate but not from geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate. The copalyl pyrophosphate transforming activity (so-called B activity of kaurene synthetase) was relatively stable in plastid lysates from Pisum sativum but remarkably unstable in similar preparations of Hordeum vulgare. The bulk of the B activity of kaurene synthetase appeared to reside in the stroma of plastids from P. sativum but required the presence of plastid membranes for maximum activity. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of mesophyll chloroplasts in full-nutrient and mineral-deficient maize (Zea mays) leaves was examined by electron microscopy after glutaraldehyde-osmium tetroxide fixation. Nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur deficiencies were induced by growing the plants in nutrient culture. Distinctive chloroplast types were observed with each deficiency. Chloroplasts from nitrogen-deficient plants were reduced in size and had prominent osmiophilic globules and large grana stacks. Magnesium deficiency was characterized by the accumulation of osmiophilic globules and the progressive disruption of the chloroplast membranes. In calcium deficiency, the chloroplast envelope was often ruptured. Chloroplasts from potassium- or phosphorus-deficient plants possessed an extensive system of stroma lamellae. Sulfur deficiency resulted in a pronounced decrease of stroma lamellae, an increase in grana stacking, and the frequent occurrence of long projections extending from the body of the chloroplast. These morphological changes were correlated with functional alterations in the chloroplasts as measured by photosystem I and II activities. In chloroplasts of the nitrogen- and sulfur-deficient plants an increase in grana stacking was associated with an increase in photosystem II activity. 相似文献

Glutathione synthetase (γ-l-glutamyl-l-cysteine:glycine ligase [ADP-forming], EC 6.3.2.3) was partially-purified (100-fold) from spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaves and its properties determined. At least part of the enzyme activity is localized in chloroplasts. The properties of the enzyme suggest that GSH synthesis would be facilitated at the pH and Mg2+ concentration in the stroma of illuminated chloroplasts, but glutathione synthetase does not appear to be ‘light-activated’ in isolated type A chloroplasts. 相似文献
