A common feature of light stress in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria is the light-induced damage to the photosystem II complex (PSII), which catalyses the photosynthetic oxidation of water to molecular oxygen. A repair cycle operates to replace damaged subunits within PSII, in particular, the D1 reaction centre polypeptide, by newly synthesized copies. As yet the molecular details of this physiologically important process remain obscure. A key aspect of the process that has attracted much attention is the identity of the protease or proteases involved in D1 degradation. The results are summarized here of recent mutagenesis experiments that were designed to assess the functional importance of the DegP/HtrA and FtsH protease families in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Based on these results and the analysis of Arabidopsis mutants, a general model for PSII repair is suggested in which FtsH complexes alone are able to degrade damaged D1. 相似文献

Photosystem II (PSII) is prone to irreversible light-induced damage, with the D1 polypeptide a major target. Repair processes operate in the cell to replace a damaged D1 subunit within the complex with a newly synthesized copy. As yet, the molecular details of PSII repair are relatively obscure despite the critical importance of this process for maintaining PSII activity and cell viability. We are using the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 to identify the various proteases and chaperones involved in D1 turnover in vivo. Two families of proteases are being studied: the FtsH family (four members) of Zn(2+)-activated nucleotide-dependent proteases; and the HtrA (or DegP) family (three members) of serine-type proteases. In this paper, we report the results of our studies on a triple mutant in which all three copies of the htrA gene family have been inactivated. Growth of the mutant on agar plates was inhibited at high light intensities, especially in the presence of glucose. Oxygen evolution measurements indicated that, under conditions of high light, the rate of synthesis of functional PSII was less in the mutant than in the wild-type. Immunoblotting experiments conducted on cells blocked in protein synthesis further indicated that degradation of D1 was slowed in the mutant. Overall, our observations indicate that the HtrA family of proteases are involved in the resistance of Synechocystis 6803 to light stress and play a part, either directly or indirectly, in the repair of PSII in vivo. 相似文献

DegP proteases have been shown to possess both chaperone and protease activities. The proteolytic activities of chloroplast DegP‐like proteases have been well documented. However, whether chloroplast Deg proteases also have chaperone activities has remained unknown. Here we show that chloroplast Deg1 also has chaperone activities, like its Escherichia coli ortholog DegP. Transgenic plants with reduced levels of Deg1 accumulated normal levels of different subunits of the major photosynthetic protein complexes, but their levels of photosystem‐II (PSII) dimers and supercomplexes were reduced. In vivo pulse‐chase protein labeling experiments showed that the assembly of newly synthesized proteins into PSII dimers and supercomplexes was impaired, although the synthesis rate of chloroplast proteins was unaffected in the transgenic lines. Protein overlay assays provided direct evidence that Deg1 interacts with the PSII reaction center protein D2. These results suggest that Deg1 assists the assembly of the PSII complex, probably through interaction with the PSII reaction center D2 protein. 相似文献

The cells of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 were subjected under photoinhibitory irradiation (600 micromolm(-2)s(-1)) at various temperatures (20-40 degrees C) to study in vivo quality control of photosystem II (PSII). The protease biogenesis and its consequences on photosynthetic efficiency (chlorophyll fluorescence ratio Fv/Fm) of the PSII, D1 degradation and repair were monitored during illumination and darkness. The loss in Fv/Fm value and degradation of D1 protein occurred not only under high light exposure, but also continued when the cells were subjected under dark restoration process after high light exposure. No loss in Fv/Fm value or D1 degradation occurred during recovery under growth/low light (30 micromol m(-2) s(-1)). Further, it helped the resynthesis of new D1 protein, essential to sustain quality control of PSII. In vivo triggering of D1 protein required high light exposure to switch-on the protease biosynthesis to maintain protease pool which induced temperature-dependent enzymatic proteolysis of photodamaged D1 protein during photoinhition and dark incubation. Our findings suggested the involvement and overexpression of a membrane-bound FtsH protease during high light exposure which caused degradation of D1 protein, strictly regulated by high temperature (30-40 degrees C). However, lower temperature (20 degrees C) prevented further loss of photoinhibited PSII efficiency in vivo and also retarded temperature-dependent proteolytic process of D1 degradation. 相似文献

Revised scheme for the mechanism of photoinhibition and its application to enhance the abiotic stress tolerance of the photosynthetic machinery 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
When photosynthetic organisms are exposed to abiotic stress, their photosynthetic activity is significantly depressed. In particular, photosystem II (PSII) in the photosynthetic machinery is readily inactivated under strong light and this phenomenon is referred to as photoinhibition of PSII. Other types of abiotic stress act synergistically with light stress to accelerate photoinhibition. Recent studies of photoinhibition have revealed that light stress damages PSII directly, whereas other abiotic stresses act exclusively to inhibit the repair of PSII after light-induced damage (photodamage). Such inhibition of repair is associated with suppression, by reactive oxygen species (ROS), of the synthesis of proteins de novo and, in particular, of the D1 protein, and also with the reduced efficiency of repair under stress conditions. Gene-technological improvements in the tolerance of photosynthetic organisms to various abiotic stresses have been achieved via protection of the repair system from ROS and, also, by enhancing the efficiency of repair via facilitation of the turnover of the D1 protein in PSII. In this review, we summarize the current status of research on photoinhibition as it relates to the effects of abiotic stress and we discuss successful strategies that enhance the activity of the repair machinery. In addition, we propose several potential methods for activating the repair system by gene-technological methods. 相似文献

The Photosystem II complex (PSII) is susceptible to inactivation by strong light, and the inactivation caused by strong light is referred to as photoinactivation or photoinhibition. In photosynthetic organisms, photoinactivated PSII is rapidly repaired and the extent of photoinactivation reflects the balance between the light-induced damage (photodamage) to PSII and the repair of PSII. In this study, we examined these two processes separately and quantitatively under stress conditions in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The rate of photodamage was proportional to light intensity over a range of light intensities from 0 to 2000 microE m(-2) s(-1), and this relationship was not affected by environmental factors, such as salt stress, oxidative stress due to H2O2, and low temperature. The rate of repair also depended on light intensity. It was high under weak light and reached a maximum of 0.1 min(-1) at 300 microE m(-2) s(-1). By contrast to the rate of photodamage, the rate of repair was significantly reduced by the above-mentioned environmental factors. Pulse-labeling experiments with radiolabeled methionine revealed that these environmental factors inhibited the synthesis de novo of proteins. Such proteins included the D1 protein which plays an important role in the photodamage-repair cycle. These observations suggest that the repair of PSII under environmental stress might be the critical step that determines the outcome of the photodamage-repair cycle. 相似文献

The reaction center protein D1 of photosystem II (PSII), known as a primary target of photodamage, is repaired efficiently by the PSII repair cycle, to cope with constant photooxidative damage. Recent studies of Arabidopsis show that the endo-type Deg protease and the exo-type FtsH proteases cooperatively degrade D1 in the PSII repair in vivo. It is particularly interesting that we observed upregulation of Clp and SppA proteases when FtsH was limited in the mutant lacking FtsH2. To examine how the complementary functions of chloroplastic proteases are commonly regulated, we undertook a high-light stress on wild-type Arabidopsis leaves. The result that wild type leaves also showed increased levels of these proteases upon exposure to excessively strong illumination not only revealed the importance of FtsH and Deg in the PSII repair, but also implied cooperation among chloroplastic proteases under chronic stress conditions. 相似文献

Mechanistic aspects of the photosystem II (PSII) damage and repair cycle in chloroplasts were investigated. The D1/32-kD reaction center protein of PSII (known as the psbA chloroplast gene product) undergoes a frequent light-dependent damage and turnover in the thylakoid membrane. In the model organism Dunaliella salina (green alga), growth under a limiting intensity of illumination (100 [mu]mol of photons m-2 s-1; low light) entails damage, degradation, and replacement of D1 every about 7 h. Growth under irradiance-stress conditions (2000 [mu]mol of photons m-2 s-1; high light) entails damage to and replacement of D1 about every 20 min. Thus, the rate of damage and repair of PSII appears to be proportional to the light intensity during plant growth. Low-light-grown cells do not possess the capacity for high rates of repair. Upon transfer of low-light-grown cells to high-light conditions, accelerated damage to reaction center proteins is followed by PSII disassembly and aggregation of neighboring reaction center complexes into an insoluble dimer form. The accumulation of inactive PSII centers that still contain the D1 protein suggests that the rate of D1 degradation is the rate-limiting step in the PSII repair cycle. Under irradiance-stress conditions, chloroplasts gradually acquire a greater capacity for repair. The induction of this phenomenon occurs with a half-time of about 24 h. 相似文献

A chromatography fraction, prepared from isolated thylakoids of a fatty acid desaturation mutant (Fad6/desA Colon, two colons Km(r)) of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis 6803, could induce an initial cleavage of the D1 protein in Photosystem II (PSII) particles of Synechocystis 6803 mutant and Synechococcus 7002 wild type as well as in supercomplexes of PSII-light harvesting complex II of spinach. Proteolysis was demonstrated both in darkness and in light as a reduction in the amount of full-length D1 protein or as a production of C-terminal initial degradation fragments. In the Synechocystis mutant, the main degradation fragment was a 10-kDa C-terminal one, indicating an initial cleavage occurring in the cytoplasmic DE-loop of the D1 protein. A protein component of 70-90 kDa isolated from the chromatographic fraction was found to be involved in the production of this 10-kDa fragment. In spinach, only traces of the corresponding fragment were detected, whereas a 24-kDa C-terminal fragment accumulated, indicating an initial cleavage in the lumenal AB-loop of the D1 protein. Also in Synechocystis the 24-kDa fragment was detected as a faint band. An antibody raised against the Arabidopsis DegP2 protease recognized a 35-kDa band in the proteolytically active chromatographic fraction, suggesting the existence of a lumenal protease that may be the homologue DegP of Synechocystis. The identity of the other protease cleaving the D1 protein in the DE-loop exposed on the stromal (cytoplasmic) side of the membrane is discussed. 相似文献

The repair of photosystem II (PSII) after photodamage is particularly sensitive to reactive oxygen species—such as H2O2, which is abundantly produced during the photoinhibition of PSII. In the present study, we generated a transformant of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 that expressed a highly active catalase, VktA, which is derived from a facultatively psychrophilic bacterium Vibrio rumoiensis, and examined the effect of expression of VktA on the photoinhibition of PSII. The activity of PSII in transformed cells declined much more slowly than in wild-type cells when cells were exposed to strong light in the presence of H2O2. However, the rate of photodamage to PSII, as monitored in the presence of chloramphenicol, was the same in the two lines of cells, suggesting that the repair of PSII was protected by the expression of VktA. The de novo synthesis of the D1 protein, which is required for the repair of PSII, was activated in transformed cells under the same stress conditions. Similar protection of the repair of PSII in transformed cells was also observed under strong light at a relatively low temperature. Thus, the expression of the highly active catalase mitigates photoinhibition of PSII by protecting protein synthesis against damage by H2O2 with subsequent enhancement of the repair of PSII. 相似文献

Photosystem II (PSII) is the membrane protein complex that catalyzes the photo-induced oxidation of water at a manganese-calcium active site. Light-dependent damage and repair occur in PSII under conditions of high light stress. The core reaction center complex is composed of the D1, D2, CP43, and CP47 intrinsic polypeptides. In this study, a new chromophore formed from the oxidative post-translational modification of tryptophan is identified in the CP43 subunit. Tandem mass spectrometry peptide sequencing is consistent with the oxidation of the CP43 tryptophan side chain, Trp-365, to produce N-formylkynurenine (NFK). Characterization with ultraviolet visible absorption and ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy supports this assignment. An optical assay suggests that the yield of NFK increases 2-fold (2.2 ± 0.5) under high light illumination. A concomitant 2.4 ± 0.5-fold decrease is observed in the steady-state rate of oxygen evolution under the high light conditions. NFK is the product formed from reaction of tryptophan with singlet oxygen, which can be produced under high light stress in PSII. Reactive oxygen species reactions lead to oxidative damage of the reaction center, D1 protein turnover, and inhibition of electron transfer. Our results are consistent with a role for the CP43 NFK modification in photoinhibition. 相似文献

Photosystem II (PSII) photochemical efficiency (chlorophyll fluorescence ratio Fv/Fm) was recorded in vivo in Synechocystis 6803 during high light illumination and during a subsequent shift of the cells to darkness. A continuing decrease in the Fv/Fm ratio was observed even after the cells were transferred to darkness, provided the temperature was high enough. The decrease in the PSII efficiency after the shifting of the cells to darkness correlated directly with the loss of the D1 protein under different temperatures, suggesting that temperature-dependent proteolysis of the D1 protein in darkness induces the loss of PSII photochemical efficiency under these conditions. Furthermore, the amount of FtsH protease was found to increase during the high light treatment. This observation suggests that the synthesis of the FtsH protein is a light-regulated process and that this protease most probably has a key role in an efficient degradation of the D1 protein even under post-illuminative conditions, provided the temperature is high enough to prevent the initial reversible steps of photoinhibition. 相似文献

Light-intensity and redox-state induced thylakoid proteins phosphorylation involved in structural changes and in regulation of protein turnover. The presence of heavy metal ions triggers a wide range of cellular responses including changes in plant growth and photosynthesis. Plants have evolved a number of mechanisms to protect photosynthetic apparatus. We have characterized the effect of lead on PSII protein phosphorylation in pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants grown in low light conditions. Pb ions affected only slightly photochemical efficiency of PSII and had no effect on organization of thylakoid complexes. Lead activated strongly phosphorylation of PSII core D1 protein and dephosphorylation of this protein did not proceed in far red light. D1 protein was also not degraded in this conditions. However, phosphorylation of LHCII proteins was not affected by lead. These results indicate that Pb2+ stimulate the phosphorylation of PSII core proteins and by disturbing the disassembly of supercomplexes play a role in PSII repair mechanism. LHCII phosphorylation could control the distribution of energy between the photosystems in low light conditions. This demonstrates that plants may respond to heavy metals by induction different pathways responsible for protein protection under stress conditions. 相似文献

The FtsH2 protease, encoded by the slr0228 gene, plays a key role in the selective degradation of photodamaged D1 protein during the repair of Photosystem II (PSII) in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. To test whether additional proteases might be involved in D1 degradation during high rates of photodamage, we have studied the synthesis and degradation of the D1 protein in ΔPsbO and ΔPsbV mutants, in which the CaMn4 cluster catalyzing oxygen evolution is less stable, and in the D1 processing mutants, D1-S345P and ΔCtpA, which are unable to assemble a functional cluster. All four mutants exhibited a dramatically increased rate of D1 degradation in high light compared to the wild-type. Additional inactivation of the ftsH2 gene slowed the rate of D1 degradation dramatically and increased the level of PSII complexes. We conclude that FtsH2 plays a major role in the degradation of both precursor and mature forms of D1 following donor-side photoinhibition. However, this conclusion concerned only D1 assembled into larger complexes containing at least D2 and CP47. In the ΔpsbEFLJ deletion mutant blocked at an early stage in PSII assembly, unassembled D1 protein was efficiently degraded in the absence of FtsH2 pointing to the involvement of other protease(s). Significantly, the ΔPsbO mutant displayed unusually low levels of cellular chlorophyll at extremely low-light intensities. The possibilities that PSII repair may limit the availability of chlorophyll for the biogenesis of other chlorophyll-binding proteins and that PsbO might have a regulatory role in PSII repair are discussed. 相似文献

Inhibition of the activity of photosystem II (PSII) under strong light is referred to as photoinhibition. This phenomenon is due to the imbalance between the rate of photodamage to PSII and the rate of the repair of damaged PSII. Photodamage is initiated by the direct effects of light on the oxygen-evolving complex and, thus, photodamage to PSII is unavoidable. Studies of the effects of oxidative stress on photodamage and subsequent repair have revealed that reactive oxygen species (ROS) act primarily by inhibiting the repair of photodamaged PSII and not by damaging PSII directly. Thus, strong light has two distinct effects on PSII; it damages PSII directly and it inhibits the repair of PSII via production of ROS. Investigations of the ROS-induced inhibition of repair have demonstrated that ROS suppress the synthesis de novo of proteins and, in particular, of the D1 protein, that are required for the repair of PSII. Moreover, a primary target for inhibition by ROS appears to be the elongation step of translation. Inhibition of the repair of PSII by ROS is accelerated by the deceleration of the Calvin cycle that occurs when the availability of CO2 is limited. In this review, we present a new paradigm for the action of ROS in photoinhibition. 相似文献

When organisms that perform oxygenic photosynthesis are exposed to strong visible or UV light, inactivation of photosystem II (PSII) occurs. However, such organisms are able rapidly to repair the photoinactivated PSII. The phenomenon of photoinactivation and repair is known as photoinhibition. Under normal laboratory conditions, the rate of repair is similar to or faster than the rate of photoinactivation, preventing the detailed analysis of photoinactivation and repair as separate processes. We report here that, using strong UV-A light from a laser, we were able to analyze separately the photoinactivation and repair of photosystem II in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Very strong UV-A light at 364 nm and a photon flux density of 2600 micromol photons m(-2) s(-1) inactivated the oxygen-evolving machinery and the photochemical reaction center of PSII within 1 or 2 min before the first step in the repair process, namely, the degradation of the D1 protein, occurred. During subsequent incubation of cells in weak visible light, the activity of PSII recovered fully within 30 min and this process depended on protein synthesis. During subsequent incubation of cells in darkness for 60 min, the D1 protein of the photoinactivated PSII was degraded. Further incubation in weak visible light resulted in the rapid restoration of the activity of PSII. These observations suggest that very strong UV-A light is a useful tool for the analysis of the repair of PSII after photoinactivation. 相似文献

Photosystem II (PSII) is a primary target for light‐induced damage in photosynthetic protein complexes. To avoid photoinhibition, chloroplasts have evolved a repair cycle with efficient degradation of the PSII reaction center protein, D1, by the proteases FtsH and Deg. Earlier reports have described that phosphorylated D1 is a poor substrate for proteolysis, suggesting a mechanistic role for protein phosphorylation in PSII quality control, but its precise role remains elusive. STN8, a protein kinase, plays a central role in this phosphorylation process. To elucidate the relationship between phosphorylation of D1 and the protease function we assessed in this study the involvement of STN8, using Arabidopsis thaliana mutants lacking FtsH2 [yellow variegated2 (var2)] and Deg5/Deg8 (deg5 deg8). In support of our presumption we found that phosphorylation of D1 increased more in var2. Furthermore, the coexistence of var2 and stn8 was shown to recover the delay in degradation of D1, resulting in mitigation of the high vulnerability to photoinhibition of var2. Partial D1 cleavage fragments that depended on Deg proteases tended to increase, with concomitant accumulation of reactive oxygen species in the mutants lacking STN8. We inferred that the accelerated degradation of D1 in var2 stn8 presents a tradeoff in that it improved the repair of PSII but simultaneously enhanced oxidative stress. Together, these results suggest that PSII core phosphorylation prevents undesirable cleavage of D1 by Deg proteases, which causes cytotoxicity, thereby balancing efficient linear electron flow and photo‐oxidative damage. We propose that PSII core phosphorylation contributes to fine‐tuned degradation of D1. 相似文献
