The diffusion of plastoquinol and its binding to the Qo site of the cyt bf complex in the course of photosynthetic electron transport was studied by following the sigmoidal flash-induced re-reduction kinetics of P700 after previous oxidation of the intersystem electron carriers. The data resulting from these experiments were matched with a simulation of electron transport using Monte Carlo techniques. The simulation was able to account for the experimental observations. Two different extreme cases of reaction mechanism at the Qo site were compared: a diffusion limited collisional mechanism and a non-diffusion limited tight binding mechanism. Assuming a tight binding mechanism led to best matches due to the high protein density in thylakoids. The varied parameters resulted in values well within the range of published data. The results emphasise the importance of structural characteristics of thylakoids in models of electron transport.  相似文献

Thylakoid membranes contain the redox active complexes catalyzing the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in cyanobacteria, algae and plants. Crude thylakoid membranes or purified photosystems from different organisms have previously been utilized for generation of electrical power and/or fuels. Here we investigate the electron transferability from thylakoid preparations from plants or the cyanobacterium Synechocystis. We show that upon illumination, crude Synechocystis thylakoids can reduce cytochrome c. In addition, this crude preparation can transfer electrons to a graphite electrode, producing an unmediated photocurrent of 15 μA/cm2. Photocurrent could be obtained in the presence of the PSII inhibitor DCMU, indicating that the source of electrons is QA, the primary Photosystem II acceptor. In contrast, thylakoids purified from plants could not reduce cyt c, nor produced a photocurrent in the photocell in the presence of DCMU. The production of significant photocurrent (100 μA/cm2) from plant thylakoids required the addition of the soluble electron mediator DCBQ. Furthermore, we demonstrate that use of crude thylakoids from the D1-K238E mutant in Synechocystis resulted in improved electron transferability, increasing the direct photocurrent to 35 μA/cm2. Applying the analogous mutation to tobacco plants did not achieve an equivalent effect. While electron abstraction from crude thylakoids of cyanobacteria or plants is feasible, we conclude that the site of the abstraction of the electrons from the thylakoids, the architecture of the thylakoid preparations influence the site of the electron abstraction, as well as the transfer pathway to the electrode. This dictates the use of different strategies for production of sustainable electrical current from photosynthetic thylakoid membranes of cyanobacteria or higher plants.  相似文献

Signal I, the EPR signal of P-700, induced by long flashes as well as the rate of linear electron transport are investigated at partial inhibition of electron transport in chloroplasts. Inhibition of plastoquinol oxidation by dibromothymoquinone and bathophenanthroline, inhibition of plastocyanin by KCN and HgCl2, and inhibition by 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide are used to study a possible electron exchange between electron-transport chains after plastoquinone. (1) At partial inhibition of plastocyanin the reduction kinetics of P-700+ show a fast component comparable to that in control chloroplasts and a new slow component. The slow component indicates P-700+ which is not accessible to residual active plastocyanin under these conditions. We conclude that P-700 is reduced via complexed plastocyanin. (2) The rate of linear electron transport at continuous illumination decreases immediately when increasing amounts of plastocyanin are inhibited by KCN incubation. This is not consistent with an oxidation of cytochrome f by a mobile pool of plastocyanin with respect to the reaction rates of plastocyanin being more than an order of magnitude faster than the rate-limiting step of linear electron transport. It is evidence for a complex between the cytochrome b6 - f complex and plastocyanin. The number of these complexes with active plastocyanin is concluded to control the rate-limiting plastoquinol oxidation. (3) Partial inhibition of the electron transfer between plastoquinone and cytochrome f by dibromothymoquinone and bathophenanthroline causes decelerated monophasic reduction of total P-700+. The P-700 kinetics indicate an electron transfer from the cytochrome b6 - f complex to more than ten Photosystem I reaction center complexes. This cooperation is concluded to occur by lateral diffusion of both complexes in the membrane. (4) The proposed functional organization of electron transport from plastoquinone to P-700 in situ is supported by further kinetic details and is discussed in terms of the spatial distribution of the electron carriers in the thylakoid membrane.  相似文献

Pyrene fluorescence quenching by plastoquinone was used to estimate the rate of plastoquinone lateral diffusion in soybean phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes containing the following integral membrane proteins: gramicidin D, spinach cytochrome bf complex, spinach cytochrome f, reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, beef heart mitochondrial cytochrome bc1, and beef heart mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase. The measured plastoquinone lateral diffusion coefficient varied between 1 and 3 · 10-7 cm2 s-1 in control liposomes that lacked protein. When proteins were added, these values decreased: a 10-fold decrease was observed when 16-26% of the membrane surface area was occupied by protein for all the proteins but gramicidin. The larger protein complexes (cytochrome bf, Rhodobacter sphaeroides reaction centers, cytochrome bc1, and cytochrome oxidase), whose hydrophobic volumes were 15-20 times as large as that of cytochrome f and the gramicidin transmembrane dimer, were 15-20 times as effective in decreasing the lateral-diffusion coefficient over the range of concentrations studied. These proteins had a much stronger effect than that observed for bacteriorhodopsin in fluorescence photobleaching recovery measurements. The effect of high-protein concentrations in gramicidin proteoliposomes was in close agreement with fluorescence photobleaching measurements. The results are compared with the predictions of several theoretical models of lateral mobility as a function of integral membrane concentration.  相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide production in isolated pea thylakoids was studied in the presence of cytochrome c to prevent disproportionation of superoxide radicals outside of the thylakoid membranes. The comparison of cytochrome c reduction with accompanying oxygen uptake revealed that hydrogen peroxide was produced within the thylakoid. The proportion of electrons from water oxidation participating in this hydrogen peroxide production increased with increasing light intensity, and at a light intensity of 630 μmol quanta m− 2 s− 1 it reached 60% of all electrons entering the electron transport chain. Neither the presence of a superoxide dismutase inhibitor, potassium cyanide or sodium azide, in the thylakoid suspension, nor unstacking of the thylakoids appreciably affected the partitioning of electrons to hydrogen peroxide production. Also, osmolarity-induced changes in the thylakoid lumen volume, as well as variation of the lumen pH induced by the presence of Gramicidin D, had negligible effects on such partitioning. The flow of electrons participating in lumen hydrogen peroxide production was found to be near 10% of the total electron flow from water. It is concluded that a considerable amount of hydrogen peroxide is generated inside thylakoid membranes, and a possible mechanism, as well as the significance, of this process are discussed.  相似文献

By using the direct electrometric technique, the flash-induced generation of the difference in electrical potentials in hybrid proteoliposomes containing photosystem 1 and cytochrome bf complexes from cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 was studied. It was shown that the primary donor P700 in photosystem I and cytochrome f are predominantly localized near the outer surface of the proteoliposomal membrane, which made it possible to study for the first time electrogenic reactions of cytochrome bf complexes in a model system. In the presence of decyl plastoquinol and cytochrome c6, besides the fast electrogenic phase determined by the separation of charges in photosystem I, additional electrogenic phases in the submillisecond and millisecond ranges were observed. These phases were partially depressed in the presence of the inhibitor of the plastoquinone reductase site NQNO and fully disappeared after the addition of the inhibitor of the plastoquinol oxidase site stigmatellin. A possible mechanism of the electrogenic reactions in cytochrome bf complexes was considered.  相似文献

The minimal turnover time, τ, for in vivo electron transport from water to CO2, was calculated from oxygen flash yields and steady-state light-saturated photosynthetic rates in the marine chlorophyte, Dunaliella tertiolecta, cultured at different growth irradiance levels. As cells adapted to lower growth irradiance levels, τ increased from 3.5 to 14.5 ms, in parallel with increases in the contents of chlorophyll a, Photosystem II, PQ, cytochrome b6f, Photosystem I and thylakoid surface density. Thus, at all growth irradiance levels examined, the relative proportion of these membrane-bound electron-transport components remained constant. However, the cellular pool size of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, determined by radioimmunoassay, was independent of growth irradiance. Hence the ratio of the enzyme to electron-transport chain components varied between 4.8 and 1.2 as a function of growth irradiance levels. The change in this ratio was related quantitatively to the minimal turnover time of electron transport from water to carbon dioxide. Taking into account thylakoid surface density, cellular contents of electron-transport components and diffusion coefficient of plastoquinol, a diffusion time of 2.3 ms was calculated for transport of PQH2 from Photosystem II to cytochrome b6f. This rate is 1.5- to 13-times faster than τ. The data strongly suggest that under nutrient saturated conditions the absolute rate of light-saturated photosynthesis is limited by carbon fixation rather than electron transport. It is predicted, however, that in cells grown above 3000 μmol quanta per m2 per s, electron transport rather than carbon fixation would become the rate-limiting step of light saturated photosynthesis.  相似文献

Two fractions of thylakoid membranes (TMF) have been isolated from disrupted (French press) algal cells by using a discontinuous sucrose gradient. TMF-II consists mostly of thylakoid membranes still partially organized in grana; it contains also fragments of chloroplast envelope, pyrenoid tubules, and starch granules; thus it amounts to a fraction of chloroplast fragments which have lost practically all matrix components. TMF-I consists of smaller chloroplast fragments and is contaminated to a larger extent than TMF-II by other subcellular components, primarily mitochondria. TMF-II accounts for about 12% of the protein and 30% of the chlorophyll of the whole cell; it contains cytochrome 554 and carotenoids in the same ratio to chlorophyll as the latter, and shows photosystems I and II activities but lacks enzymatic activities characteristic of the dark reactions. During the greening of the y-1 mutant of Chlamydomonas, TMF's have been isolated over a range of chlorophyll concentrations from 5 to 25 µg/107 cells. The results showed that during this period the ratios of chlorophyll to cytochrome 554 and of chlorophyll to carotenoids, and the relative concentrations of individual carotenoids were continuously changing. The findings support the view that during greening, thylakoid membranes are produced by multistep assembly.  相似文献

A kinetic model of the cytochrome bf complex was developed on the assumption that the Q-cycle operates. The bf complex was considered as a membrane enzyme catalyzing the electron transfer from plastoquinol to plastocyanine, which is coupled with proton translocation from the chloroplast stroma to the thylakoid lumen. The dependence of the electron transfer rates on the value of the transmembrane electric potential was taken into account. The model was applied to describe the experimental data on the flash-induced turnover of cytochromes b, plastocyanine, and the kinetics of proton deposition in the thylakoid lumen. The estimation of model parameters was performed.  相似文献

The effects of dibromothymoquinone (DBMIB) and methylviologen (MV) on the Chl a fluorescence induction transient (OJIP) were studied in vivo. Simultaneously measured 820-nm transmission kinetics were used to monitor electron flow through photosystem I (PSI). DBMIB inhibits the reoxidation of plastoquinol by binding to the cytochrome b6/f complex. MV accepts electrons from the FeS clusters of PSI and it allows electrons to bypass the block that is transiently imposed by ferredoxin-NADP+-reductase (FNR) (inactive in dark-adapted leaves). We show that the IP phase of the OJIP transient disappears in the presence of DBMIB without affecting Fm. MV suppresses the IP phase by lowering the P level compared to untreated leaves. These observations indicate that PSI activity plays an important role in the kinetics of the OJIP transient. Two requirements for the IP phase are electron transfer beyond the cytochrome b6/f complex (blocked by DBMIB) and a transient block at the acceptor side of PSI (bypassed by MV). It is also observed that in leaves, just like in thylakoid membranes, DBMIB can bypass its own block at the cytochrome b6/f complex and donate electrons directly to PC+ and P700+ with a donation time τ of 4.3 s. Further, alternative explanations of the IP phase that have been proposed in the literature are discussed.  相似文献

Stomatal conductance is coupled to leaf photosynthetic rate over a broad range of environmental conditions. We have investigated the extent to which chloroplasts in guard cells may contribute to this coupling through their photosynthetic activity. Guard cells were isolated by sonication of abaxial epidermal peels of Vicia faba. The electrochromic band shift of isolated guard cells was probed in vivo as a means of studying the electric field that is generated across the thylakoid membranes by photosynthetic electron transport and dissipated by photophosphorylation. Both guard cells and mesophyll cells exhibited fast and slow components in the formation of the flash-induced electrochromic change. The spectrum of electrochromic absorbance changes in guard cells was the same as in the leaf mesophyll and was typical of that observed in isolated chloroplasts. This observation indicates that electron transport and photophosphorylation occur in guard cell chloroplasts. Neither the fast nor the slow component of the absorbance change was observed in the presence of the uncoupler carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxy-phenylhydrazone which confirms that the absorbance change was caused by the electric field across the thylakoid membranes. The magnitude of the fast rise was reduced by half in the presence of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea. Therefore, photosystem II is functional and roughly equal in concentration to photosystem I in guard cell chloroplasts. The slow rise was abolished by 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-1,4-benzoquinone indicating the involvement of the cytochrome b6/f complex in electron transport between the two photosystems. Relaxation of the absorbance change was irreversibly retarded in cells treated with the energy transfer inhibitor, N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The slowing of the rapid decay kinetics by N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide confirms that the electrical potential across the thyalkoid membrane is dissipated by photophosphorylation. These results show that guard cell chloroplasts conduct photosynthetic electron transport in a manner similar to that in mesophyll cells and provide the first evidence that photophosphorylation occurs in guard cells in vivo.  相似文献

The redox changes of cytochrome b-563 (cytochrome b), cytochrome f, plastocyanin and P-700 were measured on dark-adapted chloroplasts after illumination by a series of flashes in oxidizing conditions (0.1 mM ferricyanide). In these conditions, the plastoquinone pool is fully oxidized and the only available plastoquinol are those formed by Photosystem (PS) II reaction. According to the two-electron gate mechanism proposed by Bouges-Bocquet (Bouges-Bocquet, B. (1973) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 314, 250–256), plastoquinol is mainly formed after the second and the fourth flashes. After the second flash, the reoxidation of plastoquinol occurs by a concerted reaction which reduces most of the cytochrome b present and a fraction of PS I donors. Most of these electrons are stored on P-700, which implies a large equilibrium constant between the secondary PS I donors and P-700. One electron is stored on cytochrome b during a time (t12 ≈ 1 s) much longer than the dark interval between flashes. After the fourth flash, a new plastoquinol molecule is formed, which induces the reduction of PS I donors with no corresponding further reduction of cytochrome b. The number of electrons transferred after the fourth flash is larger than that transferred after the second flash although the rate of transfer is lower. To interpret these data, we assume that the plastoquinol formed after the fourth flash is reoxidized by a second concerted reaction: one electron is directly transferred to PS I donors while the other cooperates with the electron stored on cytochrome b to reduce a plastoquinone molecule localized on a site close to the outer face of the membrane. This newly formed plastoquinol crosses the membrane and transfers a second electron to PS I donors. This interpretation resembles a model proposed by Velthuys (Velthuys, B.R. (1979) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 76, 2765?2769) and which belongs to the modified Q-cycle class of models.  相似文献

The electron transport rates of photosystems II and I, amounts of electron carriers, coupling factor activity and photosynthetic rates were investigated in thylakoids isolated from pea plants grown under a wide range of light intensities (16 h light-8 h dark). The electron transport rates of PS II and PS I, as partial reactions or in whole chain, and coupling factor activity on a unit chlorophyll basis, all increased as the light intensity available for growth was altered from a very low intensity of 10 E m-2s-1 to a high intensity of 840 E m-2s-1. Similarly, there were increases in the amounts of atrazine binding sites, plastoquinine, cytochrome f and P700 per unit chlorophyll; significantly, the amounts of reaction centres of PS II and PS I were not equal at any light intensity. The rate of change of all parameters with respect to light intensity could be represented by two straight lines of different slopes which met at a transition point corresponding to approximately 200 E m-2s-1 during growth. These photoadaptations were similar to those observed for both the relative distribution of chlorophyll in chlorophyll-protein complexes and the chl a/chl b ratios [Leong and Anderson, 1984, Photosynthesis Research 5:117–128]. Since these thylakoid components and functions were affected in the same direction by light intensity during growth and all show linear relationships with chl a/chl b ratios, it indicates that they are closely regulated and markedly well co-ordinated. Plants compensate for the limited amount of low light intensities by drastically increasing the light-harvesting antenna unit size of photosystem II and to a lesser extent that of photosystem I. Changes in the composition of the thylakoid membranes exert a regulatory effect on the overall photosynthetic rate up to approximately 450 E m-2s-1.Abbreviations chl chlorophyll - cyt cytochrome - PQ plastoquinone - PS photosystem  相似文献

Working in tandem, two photosystems in the chloroplast thylakoid membranes produce a linear electron flow from H2O to NADP+. Final electron transfer from ferredoxin to NADP+ is accomplished by a flavoenzyme ferredoxin:NADP+ oxidoreductase (FNR). Here we describe TROL (t hylakoid r ho danese‐l ike protein), a nuclear‐encoded component of thylakoid membranes that is required for tethering of FNR and sustaining efficient linear electron flow (LEF) in vascular plants. TROL consists of two distinct modules; a centrally positioned rhodanese‐like domain and a C‐terminal hydrophobic FNR binding region. Analysis of Arabidopsis mutant lines indicates that, in the absence of TROL, relative electron transport rates at high‐light intensities are severely lowered accompanied with significant increase in non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ). Thus, TROL might represent a missing thylakoid membrane docking site for a complex between FNR, ferredoxin and NADP+. Such association might be necessary for maintaining photosynthetic redox poise and enhancement of the NPQ.  相似文献

The kinetics of the postillumination reduction of P700+ which reflects the rate constant for plastoquinol (PQH2) oxidation was recorded in sunflower leaves at different photon absorption densities (PAD), CO2 and O2 concentrations. The P700 oxidation state was calculated from the leaf transmittance at 830 nm logged at 50 s intervals. The P700+ dark reduction kinetics were fitted with two exponents with time constants of 6.5 and about 45 ms at atmospheric CO2 and O2 concentrations. The time constant of the fast component, which is the major contributor to the linear electron transport rate (ETR), did not change over the range of PADs of 14.5 to 134 nmol cm-2 s-1 in 21% O2, but it increased up to 40 ms under severe limitation of ETR at low O2 and CO2. The acceptor side of Photosystem I (PS I) became reduced in correlation with the downregulation of the PQH2 oxidation rate constant. It is concluded that thylakoid pH-related downregulation of the PQH2 oxidation rate constant (photosynthetic control) is not present under normal atmospheric conditions but appears under severe limitation of the availability of electron acceptors. The measured range of photosynthetic control fits with the maximum variation of ETR under natural stress in C3 plants. Increasing the carboxylase/oxygenase specificity would lead to higher reduction of the PS I acceptor side under stress.Abbreviations Cyt b 6 f cytochrome b 6 f complex - Cw cell-wall CO2 concentration, M - ETR electron transport rate - Fd ferredoxin - FNR ferredoxin-NADP reductase - FRL far-red light - PC plastocyanin - PAD photon absorption density nmol cm-2 s-1 - PFD photon flux density nmol cm-2 s-1 - PS I Photosystem I complex - PQ plastoquinon - PQH2 plastoquinol - PS II Photosystem II complex - P700 Photosystem I donor pigment, reduced - S830 830 nm signal (D830, difference of S830 from the dark level) - WL white light - Yl maximum quantum yield of PS I electron transport, rel. un  相似文献

We studied the regulation mechanism of electron donations from menaquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase and cytochrome c-554 to the type I homodimeric photosynthetic reaction center complex of the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium tepidum. We measured flash-induced absorption changes of multiple cytochromes in the membranes prepared from a mutant devoid of cytochrome c-554 or in the reconstituted membranes by exogenously adding cytochrome c-555 purified from Chlorobium limicola. The results indicated that the photo-oxidized cytochrome cz bound to the reaction center was rereduced rapidly by cytochrome c-555 as well as by the menaquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase and that cytochrome c-555 did not function as a shuttle-like electron carrier between the menaquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase and cytochrome cz. It was also shown that the rereduction rate of cytochrome cz by cytochrome c-555 was as high as that by the menaquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase. The two electron-transfer pathways linked to sulfur metabolisms seem to function independently to donate electrons to the reaction center.  相似文献

Kinetics of electron transfer from soluble cytochrome c2 to the tetraheme cytochrome c have been measured in isolated reaction centers and in membrane fragments of the photosynthetic purple bacterium Rhodopseudomonas viridis by time-resolved flash absorption spectroscopy. Absorbance changes kinetics in the region of cytochrome -bands (540–560 nm) were measured at 21 °C under redox conditions where the two high-potential hemes (c-559 and c-556) of the tetraheme cytochrome were chemically reduced. After flash excitation, the heme c-559 donates an electron to the special pair of bacteriochlorophylls and is then re-reduced by heme c-556. The data show that oxidized heme c-556 is subsequently re-reduced by electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c2 present in the solution. The rate of this reaction has a non-linear dependence on the concentration of cytochrome c2, suggesting a (minimal) two-step mechanism involving the f ormation of a complex between cytochrome c2 and the reaction center, followed by intracomplex electron transfer. To explain the monophasic character of the reaction kinetics, we propose a collisional mechanism where the lifetime of the temporary complex is short compared to electron transfer. The limit of the halftime of the bimolecular process when extrapolated to high concentrations of cytochrome c2 is 60 ± 20 s. There is a large ionic strength effect on the kinetics of electron transfer from cytochrome c2 to heme c-556. The pseudofirst-order rate constant decreases from 1.1 × 107 M-1 s-1 to 1.3 × 106 M-1 s-1 when the ionic strength is increased from 1 to 1000 mM. The maximum rate (1.1 × 107 M-1 s-1) was obtained at about 1 mM ionic strength. This dependence of the rate on ionic strength s uggests that attractive electrostatic interactions contribute to the binding of cytochrome c2 with the tetraheme cytochrome. On the basis of our data and of previous molecular modelling, it is proposed that cytochrome c2 docks close to the low-potential heme c-554 and reduces heme c-556 via c-554.  相似文献

The freshwater filamentous green oxyphotobacterium Prochlorothrix hollandica is an unusual oxygenic photoautotrophic cyanobacterium differing from most of the others by the presence of light-harvesting Pcb antenna binding both chlorophylls a and b and by the absence of phycobilins. The pigment-protein complexes of P. hollandica SAG 10.89 (CCAP 1490/1) were isolated from dodecylmaltoside solubilized thylakoid membranes on sucrose density gradient and characterized by biochemical, spectroscopic and immunoblotting methods. The Pcb antennae production is suppressed by high light conditions (> 200 μmol photons m−2 s−1) in P. hollandica. PcbC protein was found either in higher oligomeric states or coupled to PS I (forming antenna rings around PS I). PcbA and PcbB are most probably only very loosely bound to photosystems; we assume that these pigment-protein complexes function as low light-induced mobile antennae. Further, we have detected α-carotene in substantial quantities in P. hollandica thylakoid membranes, indicating the presence of chloroplast-like carotenoid synthetic pathway which is not present in common cyanobacteria.  相似文献
