Arabidopsis thaliana contains two photosynthetically competent chloroplast‐targeted ferredoxin‐NADP+ oxidoreductase (FNR) isoforms that are largely redundant in their function. Nevertheless, the FNR isoforms also display distinct molecular phenotypes, as only the FNR1 is able to directly bind to the thylakoid membrane. We report the consequences of depletion of FNR in the F1 (fnr1 × fnr2) and F2 (fnr1 fnr2) generation plants of the fnr1 and fnr2 single mutant crossings. The fnr1 × fnr2 plants, with a decreased total content of FNR, showed a small and pale green phenotype, accompanied with a marked downregulation of photosynthetic pigment‐protein complexes. Specifically, when compared with the wild type (WT), the quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII) electron transport was lower, non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) was higher and the rate of P700+ re‐reduction was faster in the mutant plants. The slight over‐reduction of the plastoquinone pool detected in the mutants resulted in the adjustment of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging systems, as both the content and de‐epoxidation state of xanthophylls, as well as the content of α‐tocopherol, were higher in the leaves of the mutant plants when compared with the WT. The fnr1 fnr2 double mutant plants, which had no detectable FNR and possessed an extremely downregulated photosynthetic machinery, survived only when grown heterotrophically in the presence of sucrose. Intriguingly, the fnr1 fnr2 plants were still capable of sustaining the biogenesis of a few malformed chloroplasts. 相似文献

Slr0006 is one of the Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 proteins strongly induced under carbon limiting conditions. Slr0006 has no predicted transmembrane helices or signal peptide sequence, yet it was exclusively recovered in the membrane fraction of Synechocystis, when the cells were broken in isolation buffers which contain divalent cations and are generally used for photosynthesis studies. Even subsequent washing of the membranes with high salt or various detergents did not release Slr0006, indicating strong binding of the Slr0006 protein to the membranes. Further, DNAse or RNAse treatment did not disturb the tight binding of Slr0006 protein to the membranes. Nevertheless, when the cells were broken in the absence of divalent cations, Slr0006 remained completely soluble. Binding of the Slr0006 to the membrane could not be properly reconstituted if the cations were added after breaking the cells in the absence of divalent ions. This unusual phenomenon has to be considered in identification and localization of other yet uncharacterized cyanobacterial proteins. 相似文献

The bloom-forming cyanobacterium Nodularia spumigena produces toxic compounds, including nodularin, which is known to have adverse effects on various organisms. We monitored the primary effects of nodularin exposure on physiological parameters in Spinachia oleracea. We present the first evidence for the uptake of nodularin by a terrestrial plant, and show that the exposure of spinach to cyanobacterial crude water extract from nodularin-producing strain AV1 results in inhibition of growth and bleaching of the leaves. Despite drastic effects on phenotype and survival, nodularin did not disturb the photosynthetic performance of plants or the structure of the photosynthetic machinery in the chloroplast thylakoid membrane. Nevertheless, the nodularin-exposed plants suffered from oxidative stress, as evidenced by a high level of oxidative modifications targeted to various proteins, altered levels of enzymes involved in scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and increased levels of α-tocopherol, which is an important antioxidant. Moreover, the high level of cytochrome oxidase (COX II), a typical marker for mitochondrial respiratory protein complexes, suggests that the respiratory capacity is increased in the leaves of nodularin-exposed plants. Actively respiring plant mitochondria, in turn, may produce ROS at high rates. Although the accumulation of ROS and induction of the ROS scavenging network enable the survival of the plant upon toxin exposure, the upregulation of the enzymatic defense system is likely to increase energetic costs, reducing growth and the ultimate fitness of the plants. 相似文献

The nuclear-encoded chloroplast NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase (NADP-MDH) is a key enzyme controlling the malate valve, to allow the indirect export of reducing equivalents. Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. T-DNA insertion mutants of NADP-MDH were used to assess the role of the light-activated NADP-MDH in a typical C(3) plant. Surprisingly, even when exposed to high-light conditions in short days, nadp-mdh knockout mutants were phenotypically indistinguishable from the wild type. The photosynthetic performance and typical antioxidative systems, such as the Beck-Halliwell-Asada pathway, were barely affected in the mutants in response to high-light treatment. The reactive oxygen species levels remained low, indicating the apparent absence of oxidative stress, in the mutants. Further analysis revealed a novel combination of compensatory mechanisms in order to maintain redox homeostasis in the nadp-mdh plants under high-light conditions, particularly an increase in the NTRC/2-Cys peroxiredoxin (Prx) system in chloroplasts. There were indications of adjustments in extra-chloroplastic components of photorespiration and proline levels, which all could dissipate excess reducing equivalents, sustain photosynthesis, and prevent photoinhibition in nadp-mdh knockout plants. Such metabolic flexibility suggests that the malate valve acts in concert with other NADPH-consuming reactions to maintain a balanced redox state during photosynthesis under high-light stress in wild-type plants. 相似文献

Several mutant strains of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 with large deletions in the D-E loop of the photosystem II (PSII) reaction center polypeptide D1 were subjected to high light to investigate the role of this hydrophilic loop in the photoinhibition cascade of PSII. The tolerance of PSII to photoinhibition in the autotrophic mutant ΔR225-F239 (PD), when oxygen evolution was monitored with 2,6-dichloro-p-benzoquinone and the equal susceptibility compared with control when monitored with bicarbonate, suggested an inactivation of the QB-binding niche as the first event in the photoinhibition cascade in vivo. This step in PD was largely reversible at low light without the need for protein synthesis. Only the next event, inactivation of QA reduction, was irreversible and gave a signal for D1 polypeptide degradation. The heterotrophic deletion mutants ΔG240-V249 and ΔR225-V249 had severely modified QB pockets, yet exhibited high rates of 2,6-dichloro-p-benzoquinone-mediated oxygen evolution and less tolerance to photoinhibition than PD. Moreover, the protein-synthesis-dependent recovery of PSII from photoinhibition was impaired in the ΔG240-V249 and ΔR225-V249 mutants because of the effects of the mutations on the expression of the psbA-2 gene. No specific sequences in the D-E loop were found to be essential for high rates of D1 polypeptide degradation. 相似文献

Nodularin, a cyclic hepatotoxic pentapeptide produced by the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Nodularia spumigena, induces oxidative stress in various organisms including higher plants and algae. We have monitored the physiological consequences of N. spumigena AV1 extract exposure on terrestrial plants, specifically focusing on the mitochondrial function of Spinacia oleracea L. Our results show that exposure of the plants to the nodularin-containing extract leads to significantly increased activity of respiratory complex I and citrate synthase, as well as increased accumulation of various subunits of respiratory enzyme complexes. Moreover, upregulation of the stress-induced alternative oxidase as well as the NAD+-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial ascorbate peroxidase was detected in the mitochondria of plants exposed to N. spumigena AV1 extract, while no difference in the carbonylation level of the mitochondrial proteins could be detected between the control and the exposed plants. 相似文献
