We have taken a genetic approach to eliminating the presence of photosystem I (PSI) in site-directed mutants of photosystem II (PSII) in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. By selecting under light-activated heterotrophic conditions, we have inactivated the psaA-psaB operon encoding the PSI reaction center proteins in cells containing deletions of the three psbA genes. We have also introduced deletions into both copies of psbD in a strain containing a mutation that inactivates psaA (ADK9). These strains, designated D1-/PSI- and D2-/PSI-, may serve as recipient strains for the incorporation of site-directed mutations in either psbA2 or psbD1. The characterization of these cells, which lack both PSI and PSII, is described. 相似文献

Although it has long been recognized that water deficit in plants reduces photosystem (PS) II mRNAs and proteins, the detailed mechanisms behind this have not been thoroughly elucidated. In the present study, effects of water stress in barley leaves on degradation of major PSII mRNA and dissociation and migration of PSII proteins were investigated. The results indicated that (1) the steady-state levels of major PSII mRNAs and proteins declined with increasing water stress, as a consequence of increased degradation; under severe water stress, the half-lives of D1 and D2 proteins decreased from 12–14 h to 7–8 h and the half-lives of psbA and psbD mRNA decreased from above 16 to 6–10 h; (2) monomerization of PSII were increased during water stress. Severe water stress accelerated turnover of PSII and inhibited PSII activities. 相似文献

Plastomes of the peridinin-containing dinoflagellates are composed of a limited number of genes, which are carried individually on small circular molecules, termed 'minicircles'. Although the prevalent plastid chromosome of most algae and plants has only a single copy of each gene, our previous study showed that low copy numbers of multiple variants of the gene psbA co-exist with the 'ordinary' gene encoding the D1 protein in minicircles of Alexandrium tamarense. Although none of the psbA variants encoded the entire protein, they persisted in culture. In this study, we compared the distribution and structure of psbA and psbD variants in two species of Alexandrium to characterize DNA rearrangement within these genes. In addition to four previously reported psbA variants, three psbD variants were found in A. tamarense minicircles. The ordinary psbA and psbD genes also co-existed with variants in another species, A. catenella. The sequences of the ordinary genes were virtually identical in the two species. All the variants comprised insertion or deletion mutations, with no base substitutions being identified. Duplicated parts of the coding sequences were contained in most of the insertions. Short direct repeats (4-14?bp) and/or adenine?+?thymine-rich motifs were present in all mutation regions, although the position and/or the sequence of each DNA rearrangement was unique to each variant. The results indicated that replication-based repeat-mediated recombination was responsible for generation of the variants. 相似文献
