โฆ Synopsis
77 K absorption and fluorescence spectra axe measured during incubation of etiochloroplast isolated from pine cotyledons and suspended in buffers with or without various co-factors (GSH, ATP, CoA*) and NADPH. It is shown that, in the absence of co-factors, rapid spectral changes due to denaturation of the protein-pigment complexes occur. The spectral changes differ according to whether denaturation occurs in the light or in the dark. The rate of denaturation of the Chl-protein complexes is significantly lowered when co-factors are added and a protective effect of NADPH on the PChlide-protein complexes was observed.
