A native PSI complex and a PSI core complex have been isolated from the halophilic green alga, Dunaliella salina. The composition and properties of these complexes are similar to previously described PSI complexes from spinach membranes. By growth on 14C-NaHCO3, it has been possible to isolate uniformly labeled 14C-PSI complexes in order to determine PSI subunit stoichiometry. This analysis has shown a ratio of one copy of three low molecular weight subunits (22,000; 15,000; 8,000) per two copies of high molecular weight subunits (84,000). Using a 14C-labeled cytochrome b6-f complex as an internal protein standard, it has been possible to estimate the molecular weight of a PSI core complex as about 330,000. This complex contains one P700, two 84,000 subunits, and one subunit of 22,000, 15,000, and 8,000. 相似文献

An increase of medium NaCl concentration induces Dunaliella cells to evolve O2 photosynthetically even in the absence of CO2. This NaCl-induced O2 evolution may reflect the induced conversion of reserve carbohydrate to glycerol. The quantum yield for the NaCl-induced O2 evolution, in the absence of CO2, is 1.5-fold higher than that obtained for CO2 fixation. Since the synthesis of glycerol from reserve carbohydrate in the absence of CO2 requires only 0.5 ATP/NADPH, whereas photosynthesis requires at least 1.3 ATP/NADPH, it is concluded that the ATP/2e− ratio coupled to NADP reduction in Dunaliella is lower than required for CO2 fixation. 相似文献

Changes in photosystem stoichiometry in response to shift ofenvironments for cell growth other than light regime were studiedwith the cyanophyte Synechocystis PCC 6714 in relation to thechange induced by light-quality shift. Following two environment-shiftswere examined: the shift of molecular form of inorganic carbonsource for photosynthesis from CO2 to HCO3 (CO2 stress)and the increase in salinity of the medium with NaCl (0.5 M)(Na+ stress). Both CO2 and Na+ stresses induced the increasein PSI abundance resulting in a higher PSI/PSII stoichiometry.CO2 stress was found to elevate simultaneously Cyt c oxidaseactivity (Vmax). The feature was the same as that caused bylight-quality shift from preferential excitation of PSI to PSII(light stress) though the enhancement by either stress was smallerthan that by light stress. Under our experimental conditions,PSI/PSII stoichiometry appeared to increase at a fairly constantrate to the basal level even when the basal level had been differentlydetermined by the light-quality. Enhancing rates for PSI/PSIIstoichiometry and for Cyt c oxidase activity were also similarto each other. Since the two stresses affect the thylakoid electrontransport similarly to the shift of light-quality, we interpretedour results as follows: three environmental stresses, CO2, Na+,and light stresses, cause changes in electron turnover capacityof PSI and Cyt c oxidase under a similar, probably a common,mechanism for monitoring redox state of thylakoid electron transportsystem.

A photosystem two (PSII) core complex consisting of five major polypeptides (47, 40, 32, 30, and 10 kilodaltons) and a light harvesting chlorophyll a/b complex (LHC-2) have been isolated from the halotolerant alga Dunaliella salina. The chlorophyll and polypeptide composition of both complexes were compared in illuminated and dark-adapted cultures. Dark adaptation is accompanied by a decrease in the chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b (Chl a/Chl b) ratio of intact thylakoids without any change in total chlorophyll. These changes occur with a half-time of 3 hours and are reversed upon reillumination. Analyses of PSII enriched membrane fragments suggest that the decrease in the Chl a/Chl b is due partly to an increase in the Chl b content of LHC-2 and partly to changes in the relative levels of the two complexes. Apparently during dark adaptation there is: (a) a net synthesis of chlorophyll b, (b) removal of PSII core complexes resulting in a 2-fold drop in the PSII cores to LHC-2 chlorophyll ratio. These changes should dramatically increase the light harvesting capacity of the remaining PSII reaction centers. Presumably this adjustment of antenna size and composition is a physiological mechanism necessary for responding to shade conditions. Also detected, using 32P, are light-induced phosphorylation of the LHC-2 (consistent with the ability to undergo State transitions) and of the 40 and 30 kilodalton subunits of the PSII core complex. These observations indicate that additional mechanisms may also exist to help optimize the interception of quanta during rapid changes in illumination conditions. 相似文献

锌对盐藻生长与物质积累的调控作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
实验研究了不同浓度的锌对盐藻细胞生长与物质积累的调控作用。结果表明,培养液中供给锌过多或过少都不利于盐藻细胞的生长与物质积累。以培养基中6 mg/L的锌浓度对盐藻细胞生长、蛋白质合成与β-胡萝卜素积累的促进作用最大。这一锌浓度可用于盐藻的生产性培养。当培养液中锌浓度较高(8 mg/L)或较低(2 mg/L)时,单个盐藻细胞中的蛋白质与β-胡萝卜素含量较高。但此时,因培养液中细胞密度较低,盐藻细胞积累的物质总量仍然较少。在锌浓度较高或较低的逆境条件下,盐藻可能通过适应性反应形成了逆境蛋白质与胡萝卜素等。 相似文献

Changes in Lipid Metabolism during Adaptation of the Dunaliella salina Photosynthetic Apparatus to High CO2 Concentration 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The effects of CO2 on the content and composition of lipid fatty acids (FA) and on the photosynthetic characteristics of unicellular halophilic green alga Dunaliella salina (known to be susceptible to CO2 stress) were investigated. It was shown that even one-day-long increase in the CO2 concentration (from 2 to 10%) provoked an increase in the total amount of FA on the dry weight basis by 30%. After 7-day-long growth at 10% CO2, this value was 2.7-fold higher than that at 2% CO2. The difference in the FA content and composition indicated the activation of FA synthesis de novo and inhibition of their elongation and desaturation, as well as the increase in the relative content of saturated FA at 10% CO2. It was demonstrated that, after one-day-long CO2 stress, the MGDG/DGDG ratio increased fourfold without change in the sum of their FA, which indicates the increase in the proportion of lipids predisposed to micellar (hexagonal phase) but not lamellar structure formation. Under short-term CO2 stress, the ratio of 3/6 FA increased and the content of E-16:113 FA in phosphatidylglycerols increased sharply. The drop in protein content especially in the photosystem I (PSI) preparations, as well as diminishing the ratio of F

Photoinhibition in the green alga Dunaliella salina is accompanied by the formation of inactive Photosystem II reaction centers. In SDS-PAGE analysis, the latter appear as 160 kD complexes. These complexes are structurally stable, enough to withstand re-electrophoresis of excised gel slices from the 160 kD region. Western blot analyses with specific polyclonal antibodies raised against the D1 or D2 reaction center proteins provided evidence for the presence of both of these polypeptides in the re-electrophoresed 160 kD complex. Incubation of excised gel slices from the 160 kD region, under aerobic conditions at 4°C for a prolonged period of time, caused a break-up of the 160 kD complex into a 52 kD D1-containing and 80 and 26 kD D2-containing pieces. Western blot analysis with polyclonal antibodies raised against the apoproteins of CPI (reaction center proteins of PS I) did not show cross-reaction either with the 160 kD complex or with the 52, 80 and 26 kD pieces. The results show the presence of both D1 and D2 in the 160 kD complex and strengthen the notion of a higher molecular weight D1- and D2-containing complex that forms upon disassembly of photodamaged PS II units.Abbreviations Chl

Species differences in heavy metal tolerance were investigated by comparing the responses of Dunaliella tertiolecta and Dunaliella salina to elevated concentrations of CuCl2. Although both species showed reduced cell number ml(-1) of algal culture, D. salina was more affected by increase in CuCl2. This reflects higher sensitivity of D. salina to CuCl2 compared to D. tertiolecta. Total chlorophyll in terms of microg ml(-1) was higher in D. tertiolecta at all tested CuCl2 levels, but in terms of microg cell(-1) no significant difference was observed between the two species. Total carotenoids in microg cell(-1) increased with increase in CuCl2 in both species and it was about five times higher in D. salina at all CuCl2 concentrations. While both species showed significant increase in lipid peroxidation at elevated CuCl2, the malondialdehyde content of D. salina cells was about three times higher at most CuCl2 concentrations. Although ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity increased with increase in CuCl2 levels in both species, higher activity was observed in D. tertiolecta at all tested CuCl2 concentrations. Cu content of D. salina cells was higher than D. tertiolecta which may be due to larger volume of D. salina cells. In conclusion, since hydroxyl radical (HO*) produced from H2O2 by Cu2+ (Haber-Weiss cycle) is involved in lipid peroxidation, higher ascorbate peroxidase activity in D. tertiolecta may partly account for lower sensitivity of this species to CuCl2 compared to D. salina. 相似文献

The process of the simultaneous production and extraction of carotenoids, milking, of Dunaliella salina was studied. We would like to know the selectivity of this process. Could all the carotenoids produced be extracted? And would it be possible to vary the profile of the produced carotenoids and, consequently, influence the type of carotenoids extracted? By using three different D. salina strains and three different stress conditions, we varied the profiles of the carotenoids produced. Between Dunaliella bardawil and D. salina 19/18, no remarkable differences were seen in the extraction profiles, although D. salina 19/18 seemed to be better extractable. D. salina 19/25 was not “milkable” at all. The milking process could only be called selective for secondary carotenoids in case gentle mixing was used. In aerated flat-panel photobioreactors, extraction was much better, but selectiveness decreased and also chlorophyll and primary carotenoids were extracted. This was possibly related to cell damage due to shear stress. 相似文献

During the in situ extraction of β-carotene from Dunaliella salina, the causal relationship between carotenoid extraction and cell death indicated that cell growth and cell death should be at equilibrium for a continuous in situ extraction process. In a flat-panel photobioreactor that was operated as a turbidostat cell numbers of stressed cells were kept constant while attaining a continuous well-defined light-stress. In this way it was possible to study the balance between cell growth and cell death and determine whether both could be increased to reach higher volumetric productivities of carotenoids. In the two-phase system a volumetric productivity of 8.3 mg β-carotene L(RV)(-1)d(-1) was obtained. In situ extraction contributed only partly to this productivity. The major part came from net production of carotenoid-rich biomass, due to a high growth rate of the cells and subsequent dilution of the reactor. To reach equilibrium between cell growth and cell death, sparging rates of dodecane could have been increased. However, already at the applied sparging rate of 286 L(dod)L(RV)(-1)min(-1) emulsion formation of the dodecane in the aqueous phase appeared. In a turbidostat without in situ extraction a volumetric productivity of 13.5 mg β-caroteneL(RV)(-1)d(-1) was reached, solely based on the continuous production of carotenoid-rich biomass. 相似文献

The apparent photosynthetic Km (CO2) of air-grown Dunaliella salina is 2 M as measured both by the filtering centrifugation technique and by O2 electrode. These cells are capable of accumulating inorganic carbon (Cinorg) up to 20 times its concentration in the medium. It is suggested that air-grown Dunaliella cells are able to concentrate CO2 within the cell. Analysis of the efflux of Cinorg from cells previously loaded with H14CO

demonstrated the existence of an internal pool which has an half-time of depletion of 2.5–7 min depending on the conditions of the experiment. This finding indicates that the internal Cinorg pool is not readily exchangeable with the external medium. Furthermore, the influence of the presence or absence of unlabelled Cinorg in the medium during the efflux experiment on the half-time observed indicate that efflux of Cinorg is not a simple diffusion process but is rather carrier-mediated.Abbreviation Cinorg

Some biochemical changes occurring in cultures of Nectria galligenaduring its autolytic phase of growth have been investigated.In nitrate-grown and autolysed cultures of this fungus the degreeof autolysis amounted to 57 per cent. The amount of myceliallipids decreased continuously with the age of the culture. Totalmycelial nitrogen did not substantially change within the first50 days of autolysis. The constancy in the amount of bound aminoacids released from mycelium of Nectria galligena strongly suggeststhat mycelial protein are not affected by autolysis. 相似文献
