Zeaxanthin Formation and Energy-Dependent Fluorescence Quenching in Pea Chloroplasts under Artificially Mediated Linear and Cyclic Electron Transport.
Artificially mediated linear (methylviologen) and cyclic (phenazine methosulfate) electron transport induced zeaxanthin-dependent and independent (constitutive) nonphotochemical quenching in osmotically shocked chloroplasts of pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Oregon). Nonphotochemical quenching was quantitated as Stern-Volmer quenching (SV(N)) calculated as (F(m)/F'(m))-1 where F(m) is the fluorescence...
متن کاملNuclear physics of reverse electron flow at pulsar polar caps
Protons produced in electromagnetic showers formed by the reverse-electron flux are usually the largest component of the time-averaged polar-cap open magnetic-flux line current in neutron stars with positive corotational charge density. Although the electric-field boundary conditions in the corotating frame are time-independent, instabilities on both medium and short time-scales cause the curre...
متن کاملThe Inhibition of Photosynthetic Electron Flow in Chloroplasts by the Dinitrophenylether of Bromo- or Iodo-nitrothymol
The O-dinitrophenyl derivatives of 2 -bromoand 2-iodo-4-nitrothymol are inhibitors of photo synthetic electron flow from water to NADP or methylviologen, yielding 50% inhibition at 0.5 /x m . Photoreductions by either photosystem I or photosystem II alone are not inhibited. The inhibition site is bypassed by TMPD. The inhibition pattern identical to the one of dibromothymoquinone. It is reduct...
متن کاملCyclic electron flow within PSII functions in intact chloroplasts from spinach leaves.
Using thylakoid membranes, we previously demonstrated that accumulated electrons in the photosynthetic electron transport system induces the electron flow from the acceptor side of PSII to its donor side only in the presence of a pH gradient ((Delta)pH) across the thylakoid membranes. This electron flow has been referred to as cyclic electron flow within PSII (CEF-PSII) [Miyake and Yokota (2001...
متن کاملSome effects of hydrolytic enzymes on coupled and uncoupled electron flow in chloroplasts.
Digestion of spinach chloroplasts with pancreatic lipase or trypsin effectively uncoupled electron transport. Continued digestion led to inhibition of saturated rates of Hill reaction activity and a decrease in quantum yield. Irradiation with ultraviolet light decreased the quantum yield and inhibited Hill activity, but did not uncouple. Ascorbate-dichlorophenol-indophenol-mediated reduction of...
