Efficiency of photosynthesis in a Chl d-utilizing cyanobacterium is comparable to or higher than that in Chl a-utilizing oxygenic species

Journal Article Mielke, S. P. ; Kiang, N. Y. ; Blankenship, R. E. ; ...

The cyanobacterium Acaryochloris marina uses chlorophyll d to carry out oxygenic photosynthesis in environments depleted in visible and enhanced in lower-energy, far-red light. However, the extent to which low photon energies limit the efficiency of oxygenic photochemistry in A. marina is not known. Here, we report the first direct measurements of the energy-storage efficiency of the photosynthetic light reactions in A. marina whole cells, and find it is comparable to or higher than that in typical, chlorophyll a-utilizing oxygenic species. This finding indicates that oxygenic photosynthesis is not fundamentally limited at the photon energies employed by A. marina, and thereforemore »« less

Kinetics and mechanism of oxygen transfer in the reaction of p-cyano-N,N-dimethylaniline N-oxide with metalloporphyrin salts. 5. The influence of imidazole ligation of (meso-tetrakis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)porphinato)manganese(III) chloride on the rates of oxygen transfer from N-oxide to metalloporphyrin salt and the efficiency of oxidations by the intermediate higher valent manganese-oxo species

Journal Article Wong, W H ; Ostovic, D ; Bruice, T C - J. Am. Chem. Soc.; (United States)

Equilibrium constants for mono- and bisligation of imidazole (ImH) with (meso-tetrakis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)porphinato)manganese(III) chloride ((Me/sub 8/TPP)Mn/sup III/Cl) have been determined so that the concentrations (dry CH/sub 2/Cl/sub 2/) of the three species (Me/sub 8/TPP)Mn/sup III/Cl, ((Me/sub 8/TPP)Mn/sup III/(ImH))Cl, and ((Me/sub 8/TPP)Mn/sup III/(ImH)/sub 2/)Cl may be calculated at different ImH concentrations. The equilibrium constants for ligation of the one and two imidazoles are K/sub 1/ = 245 M/sup -1/ and ..beta../sub 2/ = 1.80 x 10/sup 5/ M/sup -1/.

Detection of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by the oxidant-sensing probe 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate in the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis PCC 7937

Journal Article Rastogi, Rajesh P. ; Laboratory of Photobiology and Molecular Microbiology, Centre of Advanced Study in Botany, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi 221005 ; Singh, Shailendra P. ; ... - Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) under simulated solar radiation (UV-B: 0.30 Wm{sup -2}, UV-A: 25.70 Wm{sup -2} and PAR: 118.06 Wm{sup -2}) was studied in the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis PCC 7937 using the oxidant-sensing fluorescent probe 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA). DCFH-DA is a nonpolar dye, converted into the polar derivative DCFH by cellular esterases that are nonfluorescent but switched to highly fluorescent DCF when oxidized by intracellular ROS and other peroxides. The images obtained from the fluorescence microscope after 12 h of irradiation showed green fluorescence from cells covered with 295, 320 or 395 nm cut-off filters, indicating themore »« less
