Sites of photoinhibition and photo-oxidative damage to the photosynthetic electrontransport system of the unicellular cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa were identified by studies of the kinetics of chlorophyll fluorescence induction by whole cells at room temperature and from partial photosynthe

Complete stoichiometry of the reaction catalyzed by ribulose l$bisphosphate (RuBP) oxygenase from spinach and Rhodospirillum rubrum has been determined. Before initiation and after termination, RuBP has been measured either by release of equimolar orthophosphate at 25'C in the presence of 1 N NaOH o
Mutagenesis in vitro of the gene encoding the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/ oxygenase (EC 4.1.1.39) from Anacystis nidulans was used to generate novel enzymes. Two conserved residues, threonine 4 and lysine 11 in the N-terminus were changed. The substitution of threonine 4
In light and in darkness, exposure of leaf segments to CO~-free atmospheres caused a marked reduction in extractable RuBP carboxylase activity, By contrast, darkness caused a relatively small decrease in carboxylase activity in extracts from leaf segments kept in air containing CO 2 . Recovery of ca
Photosynthetic electron transport capacity was varied in vivo in sugar beets using iron deficiency, and its effects on the light modulation of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPCase) studied. Three treatment groups corresponding to decreasing amounts of thylakoids per leaf area were examined: i
