Optical absorption and fluorescence parameters of chlorophyll a and the phytol-free chlorophyllide a, as well as of their Mg-depleted derivatives, were compared in a series of organic solvents. In contrast to prevailing opinion,
the spectral properties of chlorophyll are not indifferent to the removal of phytol. The electronic absorption spectra of
chlorophyll a and chlorophyllide a differ and display a different dependence on the nature of the solvent, which cannot be explained solely by the location
of a charged carboxylic group in the proximity of the π– electron system. In fact, measurements in media of varying basicity
show that deprotonation of the free carboxylic group in chlorophyllide, i.e., the presence of a negative point charge near
the macrocycle, has no effect on pigment absorption spectra. Analysis of the solvent effect on the QY energies in terms of solvent polarity reveals that the phytyl moiety perturbs the spectral features of chlorophyll, mainly
due to its interactions with the pigment solvation shell. The phytyl residue might also be thus partly involved in controlling
the central metal ligation in chlorophylls. This influence of phytol on the spectral features of chlorophyll should be taken
into account when comparing the spectra in solution with various spectral forms of chlorophyll in vivo.

Absorption spectra and photosynthetic action spectra have been determined for living Anacystis grown in complete and iron-deficient inorganic media. The absorption studies have shown a spectral shift from 679 nm to 673 nm in the chlorophyll a absorption peak when the algae had to grow without iron. The shift is believed to reflect a changed ratio between at least two chlorophyll a forms denoted Ca670 and Ca680 in this work. Action spectra determinations have revealed a similar shift from 677 nm to 672 nm in the photosynthetic activity peak of chlorophyll a when Anacystis was transferred to a medium without iron. It is proposed that both Ca670 and Ca680 participate in light absorption for photo-system I. 相似文献

An algologically pure culture of the green alga Trebouxia, a phycobiont of cryptoendolithic lichens, was isolated from sandstone samples collected in the high-altitude polar regions of Antarctica. The absorption and second-derivative absorption spectra of acetone extract of the Antarctic phycobiont cells were studied in comparison with those of a Trebouxia phycobiont isolated recently from a Parmeliaceae lichen in the Mid-European climatic zone. The cells of the Antarctic phycobiont were characterized by a lower content of chlorophyll a and a higher ratio of chlorophyll b and carotenoids to chlorophyll a as compared to the Mid-European phycobiont. Furthermore, the carotenoids of the Antarctic phycobiont were more diverse. The low-temperature fluorescence spectra of the Antarctic phycobiont were characterized by an increased intensity of the short-wavelength fluorescence peak of chlorophyll aand a diminished intensity of fluorescence in the long-wavelength spectral region. 相似文献

Ca2+ ions shift the absorption spectrum of reduced cytochromea in mitochondria by acting from the outside of the membrane. In isolated cytochrome oxidase the shift may be induced by either Ca2+ or H+, the apparent pK varying between 6.20 and 5.75 depending on the state of cytochromea
3. Studies of the Soret band show that Ca2+ also shifts the spectrum of ferrocytochromea
3 in isolated oxidase in contrast to the situation in mitochondria or isolated oxidase reconstituted into liposomes. Model studies with reduced bis-imidazole heme A reveals an analogous spectral shift induced by Ca2+. Esterification of the propionate carboxyls of heme A abolishes the spectral shift, suggesting that it is due to interaction of Ca2+ with these groups. When taken together with the data with intact mitochondria, this suggests that the propionate side chains of cytochromea are accessible to Ca2+ and H+ from the outside of the mitochondrial membrane. In the soluble enzyme both hemesa anda
3 are accessible. Thus hemea may be located near the outside of the inner membrane whereas hemea
3 experiences a different environment in which no Ca2+ shift occurs. 相似文献

Bovine cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) contains two hemes, a and a3, chemically identical but differing in coordination and spin state. The Soret absorption band of reduced aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase consists of overlapping bands of the hemes a2+ and a32+. It shows a peak at ~444 nm and a distinct shoulder at ~425 nm. However, attribution of individual spectral lineshapes to hemes a2+ and a32+ in the Soret is controversial. In the present work, we characterized spectral contributions of hemes a2+ and a32+ using two approaches. First, we reconstructed bovine CcO heme a2+ spectrum using a selective Ca2+-induced spectral shift of the heme a2+. Second, we investigated photobleaching of the reduced Thermus thermophilus ba3- and bovine aa3-oxidases in the Soret induced by femtosecond laser pulses in the Q-band. The resolved spectra show splitting of the electronic B0x-, B0y-transitions of both reduced hemes. The heme a2+ spectrum is shifted to the red relative to heme a32+ spectrum. The ~425 nm shoulder is mostly attributed to heme a32+. 相似文献

This paper presents a new experimental approach for determining the individual optical characteristics of reduced heme a in bovine heart cytochrome c oxidase starting from a small selective shift of the heme a absorption spectrum induced by calcium ions. The difference spectrum induced by Ca2+ corresponds actually to a first derivative (differential) of the heme a 2+ absolute absorption spectrum. Such an absolute spectrum was obtained for the mixed-valence cyanide complex of cytochrome oxidase (a 2+ a 3 3+ -CN) and was subsequently used as a basis spectrum for further procession and modeling. The individual absorption spectrum of the reduced heme a in the Soret region was reconstructed as the integral of the difference spectrum induced by addition of Ca2+. The spectrum of heme a 2+ in the Soret region obtained in this way is characterized by a peak with a maximum at 447 nm and half-width of 17 nm and can be decomposed into two Gaussians with maxima at 442 and 451 nm and half-widths of ~10 nm (589 cm?1) corresponding to the perpendicularly oriented electronic π→π* transitions B 0x and B 0y in the porphyrin ring. The reconstructed spectrum in the Soret band differs significantly from the “classical” absorption spectrum of heme a 2+ originally described by Vanneste (Vanneste, W. H. (1966) Biochemistry, 65, 838–848). The differences indicate that the overall γ-band of heme a 2+ in cytochrome oxidase contains in addition to the B 0x and B 0y transitions extra components that are not sensitive to calcium ions, or, alternatively, that the Vanneste’s spectrum of heme a 2+ contains significant contribution from heme a 3 2+ . The reconstructed absorption band of heme a 2+ in the α-band with maximum at 605 nm and half-width of 18 nm (850 cm?1) corresponds most likely to the individual Q 0y transition of heme a, whereas the Q 0x transition contributes only weakly to the spectrum. 相似文献

The three major chlorophyll-proteins of spinach chloroplasts were solubilized with digitonin and isolated by electrophoresis with deoxycholate. The gel bands were identified from their absorption and fluorescence spectra measured at 77 K. The slowest moving band was a Photosystem I complex (CPI); the second, a Photosystem II complex (Cpa); and the third, a chlorophyll a-b, antenna complex (LHCP). When absorption spectra (630–730 nm) of the bands were added in the proportions found in the gel, the sum closely matched the absorption of the chloroplasts both before and after solubilization. Thus these spectra represent the native absorption of the major antenna chlorophyll-proteins of green plants. Each of these spectra was resolved with a computer assisted, curve-fitting program into 8 mixed Gaussian-Lorentzian shaped components. The major, Chl a components in the 3 fractions were different both in peak positions and bandwidths. This result suggests that each chlorophyll-protein has its own unique set of chlorophyll a spectral forms or components.Abbreviations Chl

The propionate groups of heme a and a3 in cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) have been postulated to mediate both the electron and proton transfer within the enzyme. To establish structural markers for the propionate groups, their associated vibrational modes were identified in the resonance Raman spectra of CcO from bovine (bCcO) and Rhodobacter sphaeroides (RsCcO). The distinction between the modes from the propionates of heme a and heme a3, as well as those from the propionates on the pyrrole rings A and D in each heme, was made on the basis of H2O–D2O isotope substitution experiments combined with wavelength-selective resonance enhancement (for bCcO) or mutagenesis studies (for RsCcO). 相似文献

The pH dependence of the redox potentials in the tetrahemic cytochrome c
3 from Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough (redox-Bohr effect) is here investigated using continuum electrostatics methods. The redox-Bohr effect seems
to be associated with changes in the protonation state of charged residues in the protein, but the exact residues had not
been identified. The global pK
a of this phenomenon is dependent on the redox state of the molecule, and the influence of the pH on the microscopic potential
of each heme has been experimentally quantified. The availability of detailed experimental data provides us with important
and unique guides to the performance of ab initio pK
a calculations aiming at the identification of the groups involved. These calculations were performed in several redox states
along the reduction pathway, with the double objective of finding groups with redox-linked pK
a shifts, and absolute pK
as compatible with the redox-Bohr effect. The group with the largest pK
a shift along the reduction pathway is propionate D from heme I. Its effect on the redox potential of individual hemes, as
calculated by electrostatic calculations, correlates very well with the experimental order of influence, making it a likely
candidate. Abnormal titration of the same propionate has been experimentally observed on a homologous cytochrome c
3 from a different strain, thus strengthening the theoretical result. However, its absolute calculated pK
a in the fully oxidised cytochrome is outside the zone where the phenomenon is known to occur, but the calculation shows a
strong dependence on small conformational changes, suggesting large uncertainties in the calculated value. A group with a
pK
a value within the experimentally observed range is propionate D from heme IV. Its influence on the redox potential of the
hemes does not correlate with the experimental order, indicating that, although it may be one of the possible players on the
phenomenon, it cannot be solely responsible for it. Mutation of the Lys45 residue is suggested as an indirect way of probing
the importance of the propionate D from heme I in the mechanism. Non-heme groups may also be involved in this process; our
calculations indicate His67 and the N-terminal as groups that may play a role. Accuracy and applicability of current continuum
electrostatic methods are discussed in the context of this system.

Effects of growth irradiance on the photosynthetic action spectra of the marine dinoflagellate,Glenodinium sp. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Whole cell absorption curves of the marine dinoflagellate Glenodinium sp., cultured at irradiances of 250W/cm2 (low light) and 2500W/cm2 (high light), were measured and their difference spectrum determined. Absorption by low light grown cells exceeded that of high light grown cells throughout the visible spectrum by a factor which ranged from 2 to 4. The difference spectrum supported the view that increased pigmentation, resulting from low light conditions, was largely due to an increase in cell content of a peridinin-chlorophyll a-protein (PCP) and an unidentified chlorophyll a component of the chloroplast membrane. Photosynthetic action spectrum measurements indicated that chlorophyll a, peridinin, and very likely chlorophyll c, were effective light-harvesting pigments for photosynthesis in both high and low light grown cultures of Glenodinium sp. Comparison of action spectra and absorption spectra suggested that low light grown cells selectively increased cellular absorption in the 480 nm to 560 nm region, and effectively utilized this spectral region for the promotion of oxygen evolution.Abbreviations PCP

1. Potentiometric circular dichroism titrations of cytochrome c oxidase, carried out in the absence of cytochrome c, confirm the potentiometric equivalence of the two heme a groups of cytochrome c oxidase. In the presence of cytochrome c, two different midpoint potentials are found for the two heme a groups of cytochrome c oxidase.2. Circular dichroism difference spectra (reduced minus oxidized) of the two heme a components of cytochrome c oxidase have been obtained by means of this potentiometric titration. On reduction of the first heme a group a circular dichroism difference spectrum is obtained with peaks at 425, 442 and 602.5 nm; the second heme a group shows difference peaks at 434, 447 and 608 nm. Whereas both heme a groups contribute about equally to the absorbance difference spectrum, the second heme a group reduced contributes about twice as much to the circular dichroism difference spectrum as does the first heme a group.3. From these spectral and circular dichroism differences it is concluded that, on reduction of or ligand binding to cytochrome c oxidase, conformational changes occur which affect the symmetry of the environments of the heme a groups. 相似文献

The light-harvesting complex (LHC) of higher plants isolated using Triton X-100 has been studied during its transformation into a monomeric form known as CPII. The change was accomplished by gradually increasing the concentration of the detergent, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Changes in the red spectral region of the absorption, circular dichroism (CD), and linear dichroism spectra occurring during this treatment have been observed at room temperature. According to a current hypothesis the main features of the visible region absorption and CD spectra of CPII can be explained reasonably successfully in terms of an exciton coupling among its chlorophyll (Chl) b molecules. We suggest that the spectral differences between the isolated LHC and the CPII may be understood basically in terms of an exciton coupling between the Chl b core of a given CPII unit and at least one of the Chla's of either the same or the adjacent CPII. We propose that this Chl a-Chl b coupling existing in LHC disappears upon segregation into CPII, probably as a result of a detergent-related overall rotation of the strongly coupled Chl b core which changes the relative orientations of the two types of pigments and thus the nature of their coupling.Abbreviations Chl

The utility of absorbance and fluorescence-emission spectra for discriminating among microalgal phylogenetic groups, selected species, and phycobilin- and non-phycobilin-containing algae was examined using laboratory cultures. A similarity index algorithm, in conjunction with fourth-derivative transformation of absorbance spectra, provided discrimination among the chlorophyll [Chl] a/phycobilin (cyanobacteria), Chl a/Chl c/phycobilin (cryptophytes), Chl a/Chl b (chlorophytes, euglenophytes, prasinophytes), Chl a/Chl c/fucoxanthin (diatoms, chrysophytes, raphidophytes) and Chl a/Chl c/peridinin (dinoflagellates) spectral classes, and often between}among closely related phylogenetic groups within a class. Spectra for phylogenetic groups within the Chl a/Chl c/fucoxanthin, Chl a/Chl c/peridinin, Chl a/phycobilins and Chl a/Chl c/phycobilin classes were most distinguishable from spectra for groups within the Chl a/Chl b spectral class. Chrysophytes/diatoms/raphidophytes and dinoflagellates (groups within the comparable spectral classes, Chl a/Chl c/fucoxanthin and Chl a/Chl c/peridinin, respectively) displayed the greatest similarity between/among groups. Spectra for phylogenetic groups within the Chl a/Chl c classes displayed limited similarity with spectra for groups within the Chl/phycobilin classes. Among the cyanobacteria and chlorophytes surveyed, absorbance spectra of species possessing dissimilar cell morphologies were discriminated, with the greatest range of differentiation occurring among cyanobacteria. Among the cyanobacteria, spectra for selected problematic species were easily discriminated from spectra from each other and from other cyanobacteria. Fluorescence-emission spectra were distinct among spectral classes and the similarity comparisons involving fourth-derivative transformation of spectra discriminated the increasing contribution of distinct cyanobacterial species and between phycobilin- and non-phycobilin-containing species within a hypothetical mixed assemblage. These results were used to elucidate the application for in situ moored instrumentation incorporating such approaches in water quality monitoring programmes, particularly those targeting problematic cyanobacterial blooms. 相似文献

The two products from the reaction of horse heart ferricytochrome c with Chloramine-T, the FIII and FII CT-cytochromes, contain modification of the methionines to methionine sulfoxides, but they are distinct in their physiological functions. Conformational and heme-configurational characterization of the two CT-cytochromes has been carried out by using absorption, circular dichroism, fluorescence, proton magnetic resonance, and resonance Raman spectroscopy. The pH-absorption spectroscopic behavior, thermal stability, and ionization of the phenolic hydroxyls have also been reported. Spectroscopic studies of the heme c fragment, H8, in the presence of dimethylsulfoxide, as a model for CT-cytochrome heme configuration, were also conducted. The ferric and the ferrous CT-cytochromes above pH 7.5 have similar, yet distinct, spectroscopic properties, absorption, CD, resonance Raman, and PMR spectra, typical of low-spin hexacoordinated hemes, but distinct from those of the unmodified protein. The ferric spectrum lacks the 695-nm band, and the reduced spectrum contains an additional inflection at about 400 nm, a feature also observed in the spectra of ferrous H8-DMSO systems. The CD, resonance Raman, and PMR spectra are typical of a cytochrome with a loosened heme crevice and altered coordination configuration. The Methionine-80 proton resonances are absent in the uupfield PMR spectra of both the CT-ferricytochromes. The ferrous spectra, on the other hand, contain all the Met-80 resonances, but with smaller upfield shifts than those of the native protein. Both CT-ferric cytochromes are less stable in the acid region and convert to high-spin forms with a two-step transition and with a distinct set of pK
a values. The overall conformation is nearly identical to that of the native protein, but it is less stable to thermal unfolding. All the factors differentiating the modified preparations from the unmodified protein are more pronunced in the case of FII, with FIII being the closest to the unmodified form. The two functionally distinct CT-cytochromes are two conformational isomers; conformationally and heme configurationally, they are spectroscopically very similar, yet distinct. Both contain an altered heme iron coordination configuration. The sulfur of Met-80 is repalced by the oxygen of Met-80 sulfoxide of a different configuration, R or S. Both contain a loosened heme crevice and are conformationally less stable than the native protein, FII CT-cytochrome c being the most deranged. 相似文献

1. CD spectra of cytochrome c oxidase have been determined both in the absence and presence of the extrinsic ligands CO, NO, cyanide and azide.2. CO and NO affect the CD spectrum of cytochrome c oxidase in a similar way.3. Cyanide and azide also affect the CD spectrum of cytochrome c oxidase in a similar way, but distinctly different from CO and NO.4. From the CD spectra of the oxidized and reduced enzyme, in the presence and absence of extrinsic ligands, CD difference spectra (reduced minus oxidized) are calculated for the so-called cytochrome a and cytochrome a3 moieties of the enzyme.5. These spectra are largely dependent on the extrinsic ligand used. It is therefore concluded that these spectra do not represent independent cytochrome a and cytochrome a3 difference spectra, but that heme-heme interactions occur within the cytochrome c oxidase molecule, in such a way that binding of a ligand to one of the heme a groups of cytochrome c oxidase affects the spectral properties of the other heme a group.6. As a consequence, ligand-binding studies cannot give information as to the pre-existence of separate cytochrome a and cytochrome a3 moieties in the absence of extrinsic ligands. 相似文献

The optical properties of marine phytoplankton were examined by measuring the absorption spectra and fluorescence excitation spectra of chlorophyll a for natural marine particles collected on glass fiber filters. Samples were collected at different depths from stations in temperate waters of the Southern California Bight and in polar waters of the Scotia and Ross Seas. At all stations, phytoplankton fluorescence excitation and absorption spectra changed systematically with depth and vertical stability of the water columns. In samples from deeper waters, both absorption and chlorophyll a fluorescence excitation spectra showed enhancement in the blue-to-green portion of the spectrum (470-560 nm) relative to that at 440 nm. Since similar changes in absorption and excitation were induced by incubating sea water samples at different light intensities, the changes in optical properties can be attributed to photoadaptation of the phytoplankton. The data indicate that in the natural populations studied, shade adaptation caused increases in the concentration of photosynthetic accessory pigments relative to chlorophyll a. These changes in cellular pigment composition were detectable within less than 1 day. Comparisons of absorption spectra with fluorescence excitation spectra indicate an apparent increase in the efficiency of sensitization of chlorophyll a fluorescence in the blue and green spectral regions for low light populations. 相似文献

Tissues of 338 marine macrophytes comprising 103 species, collected from the Atlantic, Mediterranean, South China, and Caribbean Seas, and encompassing a broad range in thallus form and pigmentation, were examined to quantify the importance of phylogenetic differences, spectral variability, and plant form and pigment content to account for differences in the absorption of light by marine macrophytes. Phylogenetic differences accounted for 2.5% of the variance in absorption observed, non-phylogenetic spectral differences being much larger (26%). Differences among individual specimens were much larger (72%), absorption at 675 nm increasing non-linearly as chlorophyll a density1/2, indicating that light absorption increases with increasing chlorophyll a density following a law of diminishing returns, as predicted by theory. The energy return per unit tissue produced (i.e. light absorption per unit plant weight) increased linearly with increasing chlorophyll a concentration. However, the light absorbed per unit weight decreased, for a given chlorophyll a concentration, as plant thickness increased. This indicates that while increasing thickness may increase chlorphyll a density and, hence, the light absorbed by marine macrophyte thalli, this strategy represents a burden limiting potential carbon turnover and plant growth. These results indicate that the diverse repertoire of light absorption by marine macrophytes can be adequately modeled as a continuum, dependent on plant thickness and pigment content, independent of phylogenetic differences. 相似文献

Microspectrophotometric measurements of screening granules in Mysis relicta eyes showed that most of the granules have xanthommatin spectra (7nmax 455 nm) with selective absorption of blue light. We calculated spectral sensitivity of M.relicta eyes using screening granules absorption spectra and visual pigment absorption spectra. According to our computations the
calculated spectral sensitivity curve appears to be in a good correspondence with the real spectral sensitivity. 相似文献

A cytochrome aa
3-type oxidase was isolated with and without a c-type cytochrome (cytochrome c-557) from Methylococcus capsulatus Bath by ion-exchange and hydrophobic chromatography in the presence of Triton X-100. Although cytochrome c-557 was not a constitutive component of the terminal oxidase, the cytochrome c ascorbate-TMPD oxidase activity of the enzyme decreased dramatically when the ratio of cytochrome c-557 to heme a dropped below 1:3. On denaturing gels, the purified enzyme dissociated into three subunits with molecular weights of 46,000, 28,000 and 20,000. The enzyme contains two heme groups (a and a
3), absorption maximum at 422 nm in the resting state, at 445 and 601 nm in the dithionite reduced form and at 434 and 598 nm in the dithionite reduced plus CO form. Denaturing gels of the cytochrome aa
3-cytochrome c-557 complex showed the polypeptides associated with cytochrome aa
3 plus a heme c-staining subunit with a molecular weight of 37,000. The complex contains approximately two heme a, one heme c, absorption maximum at 420 nm in the resting state and at 421, 445, 522, 557 and 601 nm in the dithionite reduced form. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 130 mol O2/min · mol heme a compared to 753 mol O2/min · mol heme a when isolated with cytochrome c-557.Abbreviations MMO

Specific absorption coefficient and the phytoplankton package effect in Lake Taihu,China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In order to investigate variations of absorption and total chlorophyll-a (TChl-a)-specific absorption coefficient of phytoplankton in Lake Taihu, 57 water samples obtained from Lake Taihu during November
8–22, 2007 were used in this study. Package effect and accessory pigments’ influences on the absorption spectra were also
examined. Phytoplankton absorption was measured by quality filter technical, and TChl-a concentration was measured by “hot ethanol” method. Results yielded significant variations in phytoplankton absorption and
TChl-a-specific absorption coefficient. Phytoplankton absorption coefficient at 675 nm is highly correlated to TChl-a concentration, while absorption at 440 nm is less correlated to TChl-a concentration because of great package effect and accessory pigments’ influence. There was an inverse relationship between
a
ph*(λ) and TChl-a concentration. Four types of absorption spectra are identified by normalizing a
ph*(λ) to a
ph*(440). The a
ph*(λ) variation is mainly due to accessory pigments and package effect, whose influence at 675 nm ranges from 83.2% to 28%,
with an average of 65.3%. Meanwhile, the wide varying ratio of a
ph*(440) to a
ph*(675) indicates a large variation range in the ratio of accessory pigment to TChl-a concentration. Those findings are significant to estimate Chl-a concentration based on bio-optical model, estimate primary production from remote sensing, and plan further ecological restoration
measures for Lake Taihu.
