Evolution of light-harvesting complex proteins from Chl c-containing algae [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Abstract Background Light harvesting complex (LHC) proteins function in photosynthesis by binding chlorophyll (Chl) and carotenoid molecules that absorb light and transfer the energy to the reaction center Chl of the photosystem.

Phycobilisome truncation causes widespread proteome changes in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
In cyanobacteria such as Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, large antenna complexes called phycobilisomes (PBS) harvest light and transfer the energy to the photosynthetic reaction centers.

Characterizing the supercomplex association of photosynthetic complexes in cyanobacteria

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
The light reactions of photosynthesis occur in thylakoid membranes that are densely packed with a series of photosynthetic complexes. The lateral organization and close association of photosynthetic complexes in native thylakoid membranes are vital for ...

Identification of distinct pH- and zeaxanthin-dependent quenching in LHCSR3 from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Under high light, oxygenic photosynthetic organisms avoid photodamage by thermally dissipating absorbed energy, which is called nonphotochemical quenching.

Gene expression and organization of thylakoid protein complexes in the PSII‐less mutant of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2022
Photosystems I and II (PSI and PSII) are the integral components of the photosynthetic electron transport chain that utilize light to provide chemical energy for CO2 fixation.

Light-Harvesting Chlorophyll a/b Complexes: Interdependent Pigment Synthesis and Protein Assembly [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1995
The biogenetic interdependence of light-harvesting chlorophyll (Chl) a/b proteins (LHCPs) and antenna pigments has been analyzed for two nuclear mutants of Chlamydomonas that have low levels of Chl b, neoxanthin, and loroxanthin. In mutant PA2.1, the apoprotein precursors (pLHCP II) of the major light-harvesting complex LHC II were synthesized at ...

The role of chlorophyll b in photosynthesis: Hypothesis

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2001
Background The physico-chemical properties of chlorophylls b and c have been known for decades. Yet the mechanisms by which these secondary chlorophylls support assembly and accumulation of light-harvesting complexes in vivo have not been resolved ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.
