Structure and binding efficiency relations of QB site inhibitors of photosynthetic reaction centres* [PDF]

General physiology and biophysics, 2015
Many herbicides employed in agriculture and also some antibiotics bind to a specific site of the reaction centre protein (RC) blocking the photosynthetic electron transport. Crystal structures showed that all these compounds bind at the secondary ubiquinone (QB) site albeit to slightly different places.

The ribosome assembly GTPase EngA is involved in redox signaling in cyanobacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Photosynthetic organisms must cope with environmental challenges, like those imposed by the succession of days and nights or by sudden changes in light intensities, that trigger global changes in gene expression and metabolism.

Guard cell chloroplasts are essential for blue light-dependent stomatal opening in Arabidopsis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Blue light (BL) induces stomatal opening through the activation of H+-ATPases with subsequent ion accumulation in guard cells. In most plant species, red light (RL) enhances BL-dependent stomatal opening.

Ascorbic Acid Mitigates Salt Stress in Tomato Seedlings by Enhancing Chlorophyll Synthesis Pathways

Agronomy
Salt stress is a critical abiotic factor that adversely affects plant growth and productivity by impairing photosynthesis. This study explores the impact of exogenous ascorbic acid (AsA) on the photosynthetic performance of tomato seedlings (Solanum ...

Histone Acetylation Modifications Affect Tissue-Dependent Expression of Poplar Homologs of C4 Photosynthetic Enzyme Genes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Histone modifications play important roles in regulating the expression of C4 photosynthetic genes. Given that all enzymes required for the C4 photosynthesis pathway are present in C3 plants, it has been hypothesized that this expression regulatory ...

Energetics of the primary electron transfer reaction revealed by ultrafast spectroscopy on modified bacterial reaction centers [PDF]

, 1994
The modification of reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides by the introduction of pheophytins instead of bacteriopheophytins leads to interesting changes in the primary photosynthetic reaction: long-living populations of the excited electronic ...
