Thioredoxin-dependent regulatory networks in chloroplasts under fluctuating light conditions
Plants have adopted a number of mechanisms to restore redox homeostasis in the chloroplast under fluctuating light conditions in nature. Chloroplast thioredoxin systems are crucial components of this redox network, mediating environmental signals to chloroplast proteins. In the reduced state, thioredoxins control the structure and function of proteins by reducing disulfide bridges in the redox ...
متن کاملPhysiological functions of PsbS-dependent and PsbS-independent NPQ under naturally fluctuating light conditions.
The PsbS protein plays an important role in dissipating excess light energy as heat in photosystem II (PSII). However, the physiological importance of PsbS under naturally fluctuating light has not been quantitatively estimated. Here we investigated energy allocation in PSII in PsbS-suppressed rice transformants (ΔpsbS) under both naturally fluctuating and constant light conditions. Under const...
متن کاملThylakoid protein phosphorylation in higher plant chloroplasts optimizes electron transfer under fluctuating light.
Several proteins of photosystem II (PSII) and its light-harvesting antenna (LHCII) are reversibly phosphorylated according to light quantity and quality. Nevertheless, the interdependence of protein phosphorylation, nonphotochemical quenching, and efficiency of electron transfer in the thylakoid membrane has remained elusive. These questions were addressed by investigating in parallel the wild ...
متن کاملLight-Dependent Ion Translocation in Spinach Chloroplasts.
The absorption of light by chloroplasts is the first step for several energy-requiring systems such as ATP synthesis and CO, fixation. Recently. it has been found that light can alter the structure and volume of the chloroplast (7, 15, 17, 26). Therefore the question was raised whether light could affect ion movements in isolated chloroplasts under conditions where structural changes occur. Thi...
متن کاملCompetition of phytoplankton under fluctuating light.
Light is an essential resource for phytoplankton and fluctuates on a wide range of timescales. To understand how light fluctuations affect phytoplankton community structure and diversity, we have studied a set of simple models using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. Light fluctuations can affect community structure when species exhibit the gleaner-opportunist trade-off betwe...
