In illuminated intact spinach chloroplasts, warming to and beyond 40 °C increased the proton permeability of thylakoids before linear electron transport through Photosystem II was inhibited. Simultaneously, antimycin A-sensitive cyclic electron transport around Photosystem II was activated with oxygen or CO2, but not with nitrite as electron acceptors. Between 40 to 42 °C, activation of cyclic electron transport balanced the loss of protons so that a sizeable transthylakoid proton gradient was maintained. When the temperature of darkened spinach leaves was slowly increased to 40°C, reduction of the quinone acceptor of Photosystem II, QA, increased particularly when respiratory CO2 production and autoxidation of plastoquinones was inhibited by decreasing the oxygen content of the atmosphere from 21 to 1%. Simultaneously, Photosystem II activity was partially lost. The enhanced dark QA reduction disappeared after the leaf temperature was decreased to 20 °C. No membrane energization was detected by light-scattering measurements during heating the leaf in the dark. In illuminated spinach leaves, light scattering and nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence increased during warming to about 40 °C while Photosystem II activity was lost, suggesting extra energization of thylakoid membranes that is unrelated to Photosystem II functioning. After P700 was oxidized by far-red light, its reduction in the dark was biphasic. It was accelerated by factors of up to 10 (fast component) or even 25 (slow component) after short heat exposure of the leaves. Similar acceleration was observed at 20 °C when anaerobiosis or KCN were used to inhibit respiratory oxidation of reductants. Methyl viologen, which accepts electrons from reducing side of Photosystem II, completely abolished heat-induced acceleration of P700+ reduction after far-red light. The data show that increasing the temperature of isolated chloroplasts or intact spinach leaves to about 40 °C not only inhibits linear electron flow through Photosystem II but also activates Photosystem I-driven cyclic electron transport pathways capable of contributing to the transthylakoid proton gradient. Heterogeneity of the kinetics of P700+ reduction after far-red oxidation is discussed in terms of Photosystem I-dependent cyclic electron transport in stroma lamellae and grana margins. 相似文献

The reversibility of the inhibition of photosynthetic reactions by water stress was examined with four systems of increasing complexity—stromal enzymes, intact chloroplasts, mesophyll protoplasts, and leaf slices. The inhibition of soluble chloroplast enzymes by high solute concentrations was instantly relieved when solutes were properly diluted. In contrast, photosynthesis was not restored but actually more inhibited when isolated chloroplasts exposed to hypertonic stress were transferred to conditions optimal for photosynthesis of unstressed chloroplasts. Upon transfer, chloroplast volumes increased beyond the volumes of unstressed chloroplasts, and partial envelope rupture occurred. In protoplasts and leaf slices, considerable and rapid, but incomplete restoration of photosynthesis was observed during transfer from hypertonic to isotonic conditions. Chloroplast envelopes did not rupture in situ during water uptake. It is concluded that inhibition of photosynthesis by severe water stress is at the biochemical level brought about in part by reversible inhibition of chloroplast enzymes and in part by membrane damage which requires repair mechanisms for reversibility. Both soluble enzymes and membranes appear to be affected by the increased concentration of internal solutes, which is caused by dehydration. 相似文献

Carbon dioxide exchange, transpiration, chlorophyll fluorescence and light scattering of leaves of Lycopersicom esculentum, Helianthus annuus and Arbutus unedo were measured simultaneously before and after abscission of leaves. Scattering of a weak green measuring beam was used to monitor water fluxes across the thylakoid membranes of the mesophyll. When leaves were cut under water, stomata initially closed partially and then occasionally exhibited distinct regulatory oscillations. As stomata closed, light scattering decreased indicating water influx into the mesophyll. Stomatal oscillations were accompanied, with small but noticeable phase shifts, by oscillations of water fluxes at the thylakoid level. These fluxes could be distinguished from the water fluxes accompanying light-dependent ion pumping across the thylakoids by the concomitant chlorophyll fluorescence signals. The latter record energy-dependent ion fluxes in addition to redox changes of the electron-transport chain. As stomata closed partially after cutting a leaf under water, photosynthesis decreased. In Arbutus unedo and Helianthus annuus leaves, transient stomatal closure was insufficient to account for transient inhibition of photosynthesis which appeared to be brought about by transfer of an inhibitory solute through the petiole into the mesophyll. This solute also stimulated respiration in the dark. When leaves were cut in air, stomata opened transiently (Iwanoff effect) before wilting enforced closure. Photosynthesis followed the stomatal responses, increasing during opening and decreasing during closure.Dedicated to Professor H. Ullrich on the occasion of his 85th birthday 相似文献
