  1. 1. Phosphorylation in State Transition : Less cause more effect

    Author : Jakob Damkjaer; Jansson Stefan; Eva-Mari Aro; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photosynthesis; Photoacclimation; State Transtion; LHCII Phosphorylation; Lhcb3; Lhcb6; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Study of the Arabidopsis thaliana knockout mutant lacking Lhcb3 (koLhcb3) have revealed a close similarity to the wild type plants. Growth rate, NPQ, qP, Φ(PSII), circular dichroism spectra, pigment composition and content of LCHII trimers have been found to be unaffected by this mutation. READ MORE

  2. 2. The roles of Lhcb1 och Lhcb2 in regulation of photosynthetic light harvesting

    Author : Malgorzata Pietrzykowska; Stefan Jansson; Jean-David Rochaix; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; Lhcb1; Lhcb2; LHCII; state transitions; phosphorylation; biology; biologi;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis in higher plants relies upon collection of light by chlorophyll molecules associated with light harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHC) proteins. The two most abundant of these are Lhcb1 and Lhcb2, which make up light harvesting complex (LHC) II trimers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Functional proteomics of protein phosphorylation in algal photosynthetic membranes

    Author : Maria Turkina; Peter Strålfors; Göran Samuelsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein phosphorylation; mass spectrometry; photosynthesis; proteomics; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Plants, green algae and cyanobacteria perform photosynthetic conversion of sunlight into chemical energy in the permanently changing natural environment. For successful survival and growth photosynthetic organisms have developed complex sensing and signaling acclimation mechanisms. READ MORE

  4. 4. Molecular characterization of protein phosphorylation in plant photosynthetic membranes

    Author : Maria Hansson; Alexander V. Vener; Jean-David Rochaix; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein phosphorylation; photosynthesis; mass spectrometry; protein characterization; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Higher plants cannot move to a more favorable place when the environmental conditions are changing. To adapt to changes in light, temperature and access to water the plants had to evolve special mechanisms at the molecular level. READ MORE

  5. 5. Protein phosphorylation and proteolysis - regulation and adaptive responses in photosynthesis

    Author : Jens Forsberg; Avdelningen för molekylärmedicin och genterapi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtbiokemi; proteolysis; Plant biochemistry; protease; two-component systems; protein kinase; protein phosphorylation; state transitions; light-harvesting antenna; photosynthesis; chloroplast;

    Abstract : Just as all other organisms, plants adapt to various environmental conditions. This work focuses on the role of chloroplast light harvesting complex II, LHCII, in adaptation of photosynthesis to changed light conditions. READ MORE
