Cyclic electron transport in C3 plants: fact or artefact? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2004
The phenomenon of cyclic electron transport was first characterized in higher plant chloroplasts 50 years ago, yet there is still a debate about whether or not this is a physiological process. The recent isolation of mutants that appear to lack cyclic electron transport, as well as new data providing functional evidence for its occurrence, support the ...

Physiology of PSI cyclic electron transport in higher plants

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2011
Having long been debated, it is only in the last few years that a concensus has emerged that the cyclic flow of electrons around Photosystem I plays an important and general role in the photosynthesis of higher plants. Two major pathways of cyclic flow have been identified, involving either a complex termed NDH or mediated via a pathway involving a ...

Role of cyclic and pseudo‐cyclic electron transport in response to dynamic light changes in Physcomitrella patens [PDF]

open access: yesPlant, Cell & Environment, 2018
Abstract Photosynthetic organisms support cell metabolism by harvesting sunlight and driving the electron transport chain at the level of thylakoid membranes. Excitation energy and electron flow in the photosynthetic apparatus is continuously modulated in response to dynamic environmental conditions.

Evidence for two cyclic photophosphorylation reactions concurrent with ferredoxin-catalyzed non-cyclic electron transport [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1985
Abstract Addition of ferredoxin to isolated spinach chloroplast thylakoid membranes reconstitutes phosphorylating electron transfer characterized by elevated P/O ratios (1.6). When oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor for reduced ferredoxin, the P/O value is lowered by antimycin A or low concentrations (10 μM) of heparin (an anionic macromolecule)

Electron transport and light-harvesting switches in cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Cyanobacteria possess multiple mechanisms for regulating the pathways of photosynthetic and respiratory electron transport. Electron transport may be regulated indirectly by controlling the transfer of excitation energy from the light-harvesting ...

Down-regulation of linear and activation of cyclic electron transport during drought [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta, 2003
The effects of short-term drought on the regulation of electron transport through photosystems I and II (PSI and PSII) have been studied in Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Chariot. Fluorescence measurements demonstrated that electron flow through PSII decreased in response to both drought and CO2 limitation.

State transitions, cyclic and linear electron transport and photophosphorylation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1999
The relationship between state transitions and the kinetic properties of the electron transfer chain has been studied in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The same turnover rate of cytochrome f was found in state 1 and 2. However, while DBMIB was inhibitory in both states, DCMU was effective only in state 1.

In vivo temperature dependence of cyclic and pseudocyclic electron transport in barley

open access: yesPlanta, 2001
The effect of temperature on the rate of electron transfer through photosystems I and II (PSI and PSII) was investigated in leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Measurements of PSI and PSII photochemistry were made in 21% O2 and in 2% O2, to limit electron transport to O2 in the Mehler reaction.

Flavodiiron Protein Activity Outcompetes Cyclic Electron Transport When Expressed in Angiosperm Nicotiana tabacum. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiol Plant
In conditions of excess illumination, alternative electron transport pathways in the thylakoid membranes protect the photosynthetic apparatus against damage from eventual over-reduction.
