چکیده
Die Anzucht der Blaualge Anacystis nidulans erfolgte wie bereits beschrieben4. Die Messung der Photosynthese-Aktivität erfolgte in W a r b u r g Gefäßen in 0,1-m. Phosphatpuffer pn 8,0 und Algen mit einem Chlorophyllgehalt von 0,05 mg bei 30 ^C; die Alkyl-benzimidazole wurden in 0,1 ml Methanol zugegeben. Nach Äquilibrierung mit 8% COa/Luft wurde mit 45 000 Lux (Philips Attralux Lampen) belichtet und die 02-Entwicklung manometrisch verfolgt. Die Photosyntheserate betrug etwa 135 /^Mol Oo/mg Chlorophyll.

Effect of C 0 2 on Photophosphorylation in vivo as Revealed by the Light-dependent Cle Uptake in Elodea densa
The light-dependent Cl e uptake in Elodea densa exhibits dual DCMU inhibition curves dependent on the presence and absence of C02 . This suggests that cyclic photophosphorylation (energy surce in the absence of C02) is also inhibited by higher concentrations of DCMU in vivo. Further, at low DCMU concentrations the Cl0 uptake in the presence of C02 is much smaller than would be expected if cycli...

The luciferin-luciferase method was used to determine ATP extracted from darkmaintained and light-exposed samples of the green alga Chlorella pyrenoidosa and of the blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans. A few measurements on Synechococcus lividus (a bluegreen thermophile, clone 65°C) are also reported. 1. The light-minus-dark ATP levels (JATP) from aerobic cells of Chlorella and Anacystis were ne...
متن کاملDesaspidin and CO(2) Fixation by Spinach Chloroplasts.
Baltscheffsky and de Kiewiet (1) proposed that desaspidin uncoupled photosynthetic phosphorylation in spinach chloroplasts. Arnon and coworkers (2, 3) have extended this work and on the basis of their finding that 1 ttm desaspidin inhibited cyclic phosphorylation completely while not affecting noncyclic phosphorylation, claim that desaspidin is a specific uncouipler at the site of cyclic phosph...
متن کاملDifferential effects of desaspidin on photosynthetic phosphorylation.
Sensitivity to low concentrations of desaspidin (5 x 10(-7)m) sharply distinguishes the photophosphorylations associated with the photooxidation of water from all other types of photophosphorylation by isolated chloroplasts. Contrary to recent reports in the literature, the effects of desapidin were not altered by changes in the redox conditions as influenced by the concentration of ascorbate a...
متن کاملPhotosystem II - mediated cyclic photophosphorylation.
DCMU-sensitive synthesis of ATP can be shown to continue in KCNtreated chloroplasts after cessation of 02 evolution. The catalyst for this reaction, k-phenylenediamine , also stimulates synthesis of ATP in NH OH-treated chloroplasts, but at much higher rates. This ATP synthesis can be o served 2 in the presence of the quinone antagonist dibromothymoquinone, and under the appropriate conditions ...
