    Notes: Abstract. The structure of chloroplast membrane proteins and their organization into photosynthetically-active multimeric complexes is described. Extensive use has been made of information derived from gene sequencing and other biochemical studies to predict likely protein conformations. These predictions have been assimilated into structural models of the various thylakoid complexes. The enzymatic activities of the complexes have also been described and where possible related to individual polypeptides.

    Notes: Expression of proto-oncogene fos is induced in response to a variety of growth factors and differentiation-specific agents. However, the induction of fos gene expression is not influenced by inhibition of protein synthesis. We, therefore, entertained the notion that expression of the fos gene may be governed by posttranslational modification of cellular transcriptional factors. We report here that transcription of the human c-fos gene is modulated by negatively and positively acting cellular factors.The nuclear protein products of the resident oncogene of the FBJ-murine osteosar-coma virus (v-fos) and its corresponding cellular proto-oncogene (c-fos) are stoichiometrically phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. The c-fos protein is more highly phosphorylated than the v-fos protein due to the phosphorylation of unique sites tentatively localized to the c-terminal 20 amino acid residues. The protein kinase C agonist, TPA, stimulates phosphorylation of the c-fos, but not the v-fos protein.

    Notes: [Auszug] IT is a frustrating business trying to understand how specific lipid species seem to optimize the functional properties of proteins that are embedded in the lipid bilayers that constitute most biological membranes. The problem is that membrane proteins are hydrophobic and therefore difficult to ...

    Notes: Abstract In leaves of an atrazine-resistant mutant ofSenecio vulgaris the quantum efficiency of CO2 assimilation was reduced by 21% compared to the atrazine-susceptible wild type, and at a light level twice that required to saturate photosynthesis in the wild type the CO2 fixation rate in the mutant was decreased by 15%. In leaves at steady-state photosynthesis there was a measurable increase in the reduction state of the photosystem II (PSII) primary quinone acceptor,Q A. Although this would lead to a decreased rate of PSII electron transport and may thus explain the decrease in quantum efficiency, this cannot account for the fall in the maximum rate of CO2 fixation. The atrazine-resistant mutant showed an appreciably longer photosynthetic induction time which indicates an effect on carbon metabolism; however, the response of CO2-fixation rate to intercellular CO2 concentration revealed no differences in carboxylation efficiency. There were also no differences in the ability to perform a State 1–State 2 transition between the atrazine-resistant and susceptible biotypes and no difference in the profiles of phosphorylated thylakoid polypeptides. It is concluded that the alteration of the redox equilibrium between PSII quinone electron acceptors in the atrazine-resistant biotype limits appreciably the photosynthetic efficiency in non-saturating light. Additionally, there is a further, as yet unidentified, limitation which decreases photosynthesis in the resistant mutant under light-saturating conditions.

    Notes: Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Feltham First) plants were germinated and grown under two temperature regimes, one chilling (6–8° C) and one non-chilling (16–18° C), which are referred to as “cold-grown” and “warm-grown”, respectively. It was found that: (1) At saturating light intensity and with excess CO2, cold-grown leaves exhibited faster rates of oxygen evolution than warm-grown leaves when measured below 15° C. However when measurements were carried out above this temperature, the reverse relationship was observed. (2) Full-chain electron-transport measurements on thylakoids showed that those isolated from cold-grown plants had greater light-saturated uncoupled rates than their warm-grown equivalents at all temperatures between 3 and 19° C. (3) This difference was apparently not due to a greater activity of photosystem I or II in the thylakoids from cold-grown plants, but rather to a more rapid turnover of a dark step within the electron-transport chain. These results are interpreted in terms of a previously reported apparent homeoviscous adaptation of the pea thylakoid membrane to growth temperature (J. Barber, R.C. Ford, R.A.C. Mitchell, P.A. Millner, 1984, Planta 161, 375–380).

    Notes: Abstract A detailed comparison of the polar-lipid composition of chloroplast thylakoid membranes isolated from triazine-susceptible and triazine-resistant biotypes of Chenopodium album, Senecio vulgaris, Poa annua and Amaranthus retroflexus has been carried out. No major differences in the composition of the bulk lipid matrix were found except for a slightly higher monogalactosyldiacylglycerol to digalactosyldiacylglycerol ratio in resistant compared with susceptible biotypes. There was, however, in the case of resistant plants a higher level of phosphatidylglycerol-containing transhexadecenoic acid in membrane fractions enriched in photosystem two. It is concluded that although the minor differences could contribute to triazine resistance it is more likely that they reflect secondary alterations in membrane organisation associated with changes in relative levels of pigment-protein complexes.

    Notes: Abstract The polar acyl lipid composition was determined for samples of chloroplast thylakoids isolated from Pisum sativum plants grown at light intensities of 50 and 300 μE·m-2·s-1 and from Aesculus hippocastanum leaves taken from shade or sun environments. Lighting conditions had no major effect on lipid class composition except for a small increase in the amount of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol relative to other lipids in low compared with high light and shade compared with sun conditions. The thylakoids from low light and shade environments also had, relative to those from high light and sun conditions, a substantial decrease in the level of trans-hexadecenoic acid in phosphatidyglycerol. In parallel with this there were lower lipid to chlorophyll ratios, higher overall fatty acid unsaturation, lower chlorophyll a to b ratios and increased relative levels of light harvesting chlorophyll a/b polypeptides as expected for an increase in the degree of thylakoid appression. With this in mind, our results on lipid class composition and content of trans-hexadecenoic acid are discussed in the context of the lateral distribution of lipids within the plane of membrane.

    Notes: Abstract It is found that the two singlet state lifetimes observed in medium sized isolated Photosystem One reaction centres belong to two distinct sets of particles. The nanosecond lifetime is due to PS1 particles in which P700 does not trap excitation energy, and the excitation energy is homogeneously distributed within the antennae of these particles. The spectral features of the picosecond component show that excitation energy in the antenna has become largely concentrated in one or more low energy (red) chlorophyll species within 3.5 ps. Antennae which have become decoupled from P700 also appear to be decoupled from these red “ancillary” chlorophylls, and this suggests that some substructure or level of organisation links them to P700. The rate of quenching of antenna singlet states appears to be independent of the redox state of P700 under the conditions used here, and oxidising P700 does not prevent excitation energy from reaching the red chlorophyll species in the antenna. We find no evidence in the data presented here of a chlorophyll molecule acting as a “metastable” primary acceptor (A0). The lower limit for the detection of such a species in these data is 20% of the optical density of the transient P700 bleach.
