The freshwater cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii spreads from tropical to temperate regions worldwide. This entails acclimation to varied light and temperature conditions. We studied the thermal and light acclimation of the photosynthetic machinery of C. raciborskii by monitoring alteration of the chlorophyll a and carotenoid content in German strains of C. raciborskii, in African and Australian strains of C. raciborskii, and in German strains of Aphanizomenon gracile, a native cyanobacterium belonging to the same order (Nostocales). Our results showed that temperate and tropical C. raciborskii strains did not differ in pigment acclimation to light and temperature. In contrast, the ratio of photoprotective carotenoids (namely the carotenoid glycoside 4-hydroxymyxol glycoside [aphanizophyll]) to chlorophyll a increased significantly more in C. raciborskii in comparison with A. gracile (1) with decreasing temperatures from 20 to 10°C and a moderate light intensity of 80?µmol photons m?2?s?1 and (2) with increasing light intensities at a suboptimal temperature of 15°C, compared to 20°C. We conclude that below 20°C photoinhibition is avoided by greater photoprotection in the invasive species C. raciborskii compared to the native species A. gracile. 相似文献

Photosynthesis requires a balance between efficient light harvesting and protection against photodamage. The cyanobacterial photoprotection system uniquely relies on the functioning of the photoactive orange carotenoid protein (OCP) that under intense illumination provides fluorescence quenching of the light-harvesting antenna complexes, phycobilisomes. The recently identified fluorescence recovery protein (FRP) binds to the photoactivated OCP and accelerates its relaxation into the basal form, completing the regulatory circle. The molecular mechanism of FRP functioning is largely controversial. Moreover, since the available knowledge has mainly been gained from studying Synechocystis proteins, the cross-species conservation of the FRP mechanism remains unexplored. Besides phylogenetic analysis, we performed a detailed structural-functional analysis of two selected low-homology FRPs by comparing them with Synechocystis FRP (SynFRP). While adopting similar dimeric conformations in solution and preserving binding preferences of SynFRP towards various OCP variants, the low-homology FRPs demonstrated distinct binding stoichiometries and differentially accentuated features of this functional interaction. By providing clues to understand the FRP mechanism universally, our results also establish foundations for upcoming structural investigations necessary to elucidate the FRP-dependent regulatory mechanism. 相似文献

The microalga Haematococcus pluvialis was cultured with NaNO3 from 0 to 1 g l–1 and optimal growth was obtained at 0.15 g l–1. Sodium acetate and malonate (from 0 to 2% w/v) enhanced the accumulation of astaxanthin three and five times higher, respectively, than in autotrophic control cultures. However, high concentration of those compounds strongly inhibited growth. The ratio chlorophyll a/total carotenoids was a good indicator of the extent of nitrogen deficiency in the cells. 相似文献

In Cyanobacteria, the Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP) and Fluorescence Recovery Protein (FRP) are central to the photoprotective mechanism consisting in regulated quenching of phycobilisome (PBs) fluorescence. Due to a transient and flexible nature of the light-activated red quenching form, OCPR, which is obtained from the stable dark-adapted orange form, OCPO, by photoconversion, the detailed mechanism of photoprotection remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that our recently described W288A mutant of the Synechocystis OCP (hereinafter called OCPW288A) is a fully functional analogue of the OCPR form which is capable of constitutive PBs fluorescence quenching in vitro with no need of photoactivation. This PBs quenching effect is abolished in the presence of FRP, which interacts with OCPW288A with micromolar affinity and an apparent stoichiometry of 1:1, unexpectedly, implying dissociation of the FRP dimers. This establishes OCPW288A as a robust model system providing novel insights into the interplay between OCP and FRP to regulate photoprotection in cyanobacteria. 相似文献
