Light-induced Changes in Allophycocyanin.
Several lines of evidence indicate that allophycocyanin is the previously unidentified "phycochrome" observed in extracts of blue-green algae.Fractions containing phycoerythrin, phycocyanin, and allophycocyanin and exhibiting light-induced absorbance changes were prepared from extracts of Nostoc muscorum and Fremyella diplosiphon by isoelectric focusing. Illumination of such fractions with red ...
متن کاملRole of allophycocyanin as light-harvesting pigment in cyanobacteria.
Photosynthetic action spectra of several cyanobacteria show a peak at about 650 nm, the height of which is correlated with allophycocyanin content in the strains examined. Allophycocyanin harvests light more efficiently than do phycocyanin and phycoerythrin. The contribution of chlorophyll a absorption to photosynthetic activity is barely detectable in cells of normal pigment composition. Chlor...
متن کاملLight-induced size changes in BiFeO3 crystals.
Multifunctional oxides are promising materials because of their fundamental physical properties as well as their potential in applications. Among these materials, multiferroics exhibiting ferroelectricity and magnetism are good candidates for spin electronic applications using the magnetoelectric effect, which couples magnetism and ferroelectricity. Furthermore, because ferroelectrics are insul...
متن کاملLight-induced Volume Changes in Spinach Chloroplasts
A light-dependent mechanism that results in a slow, high-amplitude swelling of spinach chloroplasts in vitro has been discovered. The swelling is readily observed by optical and gravimetric methods, and by the use of an electronic particle counter; all show a 100 per cent increase of chloroplast volume in the light with an approximately 10-minute half-time. The existence of an osmotic mechanism...
متن کاملAtomistic simulation of light-induced changes in hydrogenated amorphous silicon
We employ ab initio molecular dynamics to simulate the response of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) to light exposure (the Staebler– Wronski effect). We obtain improved microscopic understanding of photovoltaic operation, compute the motion of H atoms, and modes of lightinduced degradation of photovoltaics. We clarify existing models of lightinduced change in a-Si:H and show that the ‘hy...
