Abstract: | Scenedesmus cells reach full hydrogen activity after 2.5 h ofanaerobic adaptation. Exposure to oxygen inactivates the hydrogenaseimmediately. Readaptation occurs with the same kinetics as primaryadaptation. The fast activation and reactivation as well asthe insensibility to cycloheximide suggest that hydrogenase,inactive or activated, is present in the chloroplast all thetime. The activation and even more the readaptation are sensitiveto chloramphenicol. Thus, we propose that hydrogenase itselfor an activating protein in the chloroplast have a rather fastturnover. 1 Present address: Pharathiar University, Dept. of Botany, Coimbatore,India. |
