Role of cl$^{[-10]}$ in photosynthetic oxygen-evolving complex was studied by light-induced Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. cl$^{[-10]}$ depletion resulted in the suppression of amide I and amide II IR modes upon S$_1$ to S$_2$ transition. Br$^{[-10]}$ , 1$^{[-10]}$ and N0$_3$$^{[-10]}$ substituted FTIR difference spectra were very similar to that in cl$^{[-10]}$ reconstitution. F$^{[-10]}$ and $CH_3$COO$^{[-10]}$ substituted spectra were largely distorted. We succeeded in detecting the structural change of N0$_3$ $^{[-10]}$ in the cl$^{[-10]}$ site upon the S$_1$ to S$_2$ transition from $^{14}$ N0$_3$$^{[-10]}$ /$^{15}$ N0$_3$$^{[-10]}$ difference spectrum.

Inactivation and reactivation of photosynthetic oxygen evolving complex were studied with isolated spinach (Spinacia oleraceda. L.) photosystem II particles by the activity of oxygen evolution and chlorophyll fluorescence. When the particles were treated with Tris and urea, the oxygen evolution was inactivated and three polypeptides having molecular weights of 33 kDa, 24 kDa and 18 kDa were simultaneously released. But in NaCl-treated particles, two polypeptides of 24 kDa and 18 kDa were removed from PS II particles. The oxygen evolution activities of Tris and urea-treated particles were not restored by adding cation ions (Mg2+, Mn2+ and Ca2+), but the NaCl-treated particles were restored by exogenously added Ca2+. The removal of these extrinsic polypeptides, especially 33 kDa, markedly showed the decrease of the variable fluorescence (Fv). These results are likely to be due to dissipate thermal energy by antenna of photosystem II complexes.

Effects of HgCl$_2$-treatment on electron transport, chlorophyll a fluorescence and its quenching were studied using isolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Albori) chloroplasts. Depending on the concentration of HgCI$_2$, photosynthetic oxygen-evolving activities of photosystem II (PS II) were greatly inhibited, whereas those of photosystem I (PS I) were slightly decreased. The inhibitory effects of HgCl$_2$ on the oxygen-evolving activity was partially restored by the addition of hydroxyamine, suggesting the primary inhibition site by HgCl$_2$2-treatment is close to the oxidizing site of PS tl associated with water-splitting complex. Addition of 50 $\mu$M HgCI$_2$ decreased both photochemical and nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence. Especially, energy dependent quenching (qE) was completely disappeared by HgCl$_2$-treatment as observed by NH$_4$CI treatment. In the presence of HgCI$_2$, F'o level during illumination was also increased. These results suggest that pH gradient across thylakoid membrane can not be formed in the presence of 0 $\mu$M HgCl$_2$. In addition, antenna pigment composition might be altered by HgCl$_2$-treatment.

33kDa extrinsic protein, an important protein in oxygenic photosynthesis, was known to have no fixed configuration in solution. At 20$\^{C}$ and pH 6, 33kDa extrinsic protein showed changes of free energy of -14.6 kJ/mor$\^$-1/ and of standard volume of -120mL/mol, respectively, with increase of hydrostatic pressure, comparatively lower than for most proteins. NBS modification of Trp241 in 33kDa extrinsic protein dramatically changes the secondary protein structure, its affinity to photosystem II as well as photosynthetic oxygen evolution. The relationship between structural change and transport of oxygen, water and proton is deserved a further study.

산소발생능에 있어 오랜 기간 안정성을 유지하는 세포와 분리 틸라코이드 막을 단세포성 남조류인 Synechococcus PCC7002로부터 PVA로 고정화하여 구할 수 있었다. 분리 틸라코이드 막 및 고정화한 세포나 틸라코이드 막의 흡수스펙트럼의 굽대가 청색쪽으로 3nm정도 전이하였다. PVA에 고정화한 세포나 틸라코이드 막은 $4^{\circ}C$에 보관할 경우 광합성에 의한 전자전달 활성, 특히 광계 2의 활성을 오랜기간 보존할 수 있었다. 세포를 고온에 처리하였을 때 Fo와 Fv가 증가하였으나 고정화한 후에는 Fo의 변화가 거의 없었다. 이 결과는 고정화가 열처리에 의한 광계 2 복합체의 손상 특히 물분해기구의 손상에 대해 보호작용을 할 수 있음을 시사한다.

무더운 날씨가 지속됨으로서 고랭지배추의 생장 및 결구가 지연되고 있는 강원도 정선군 질운산(새빗재)의 600 m와 900 m의 배추를 사용하여 무기성분 및 단백질 발현패턴을 분석하였다. 식물체 무기성분에서는 생장에 관련된 질소 및 인산의 부족현상과 결구에 관련된 칼슘이 부족하였다. 단백체 분석은 2차원 전기영동에 의해 전체 126개의 단백질이 분리되었고 그중 48개의 단백질이 고도에 따라 변화하는 양상을 보여주었다. 이 중에서 30개의 단백질 서열이 결정되었는데, 해발 900 m에서 단백질 발현이 증가한 14개 중에서 oxygen- evolving proteins, rubisco activase and ATPase 등이, 해발 600 m에서는 glutathione S-transferase (1, 28 kD cold induced- and 24kD auxin-binding proteins) and salt-stress induced protein 등 16개의 단백질 발현이 증가하였다. 이러한 단백질은 식물체 손상에 대한 보호기작을 가진 스트레스관련 단백질로 가뭄, 온도상승, 밤낮의 온도차 등의 반복으로 복합적이며 동시 다발적으로 나타나는 고온장해 현상으로 사료된다.

Differentially expressed genes(DEG) were identified in a rice variety, Sathi, an indica type showing high allelopathic potential against barnyardgrass(Echinochloa crus-galli(L.) Beauv. var. frumentaceae). Rice plants were grown with and without barnyardgrass and total RNA was extracted from rice leaves at 45 days after seeding. DEG full-screening was performed by $GeneFishing^{TM}$ method. The differentially expressed bands were re-amplified and sequenced, then analyzed by Basic Local Alignment Search Tool(BLAST) searching for homology sequence identification. Gel electrophoresis showed nine possible genes associated with allelopathic potential in Sathi, six genes(namely DEG-1, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9) showed higher expression, and three genes(DEG-2, 3 and 6) showed lower expression as compared to the control. cDNA sequence analysis showed that DEG-7 and DEG-9 had the same sequence. From RT PCR results, DEG-6 and DEG-7 were considered as true DEG, whereas DEG-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8 were considered as putative DEG. Results from blast-n and blast-x search suggested that DEG-1 is homologous to a gene for S-adenosylmethionine synthetase, DEG-2 is homologous to a chloroplast gene for ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase large subunit, DEG-8 is homologous to oxysterol-binding protein with an 85.7% sequence similarity, DEG-5 is homologous to histone 2B protein with a 47.9% sequence similarity, DEG-6 is homologous to nicotineamine aminotransferase with a 33.1% sequence similarity, DEG-3 has 98.8% similarity with nucleotides sequence that has 33.1% similarity with oxygen evolving complex protein in photosystem II, DEG-7 is homologous to nucleotides sequence that may relate with putative serin/threonine protein kinase and putative transposable element, and DEG-4 has 98.8% similarity with nucleotides sequence for an unknown protein.

Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus is a species of the widespread geminiviruses. The infection of Nicotiana benthamiana by Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) causes a reduction in photosynthetic activity, which is part of the viral symptoms. ${\beta}C1$ is a viral factor encoded by the betasatellite DNA ($DNA{\beta}$) accompanying TYLCCNV. It is a major viral pathogenicity factor of TYLCCNV. To elucidate the effect of ${\beta}C1$ on plants' photosynthesis, we measured the relative chlorophyll (Chl) content and Chl fluorescence in TY-LCCNV-infected and ${\beta}C1$ transgenic N. benthamiana plants. The results showed that Chl content is reduced in TYLCCNV A-infected, TYLCCNV A plus $DNA{\beta}$ (TYLCCNV A + ${\beta}$)-infected and ${\beta}C1$ transgenic plants. Further, changes in Chl fluorescence parameters, such as electron transport rate, $F_v/F_m$, NPQ, and qP, revealed that photosynthetic efficiency is compromised in the aforementioned N. benthamiana plants. The presense of ${\beta}C1$ aggravated the decrease of Chl content and photosynthetic efficiency during viral infection. Additionally, the real-time quantitative PCR analysis of oxygen evolving complex genes in photosystem II, such as PsbO, PsbP, PsbQ, and PsbR, showed a significant reduction of the relative expression of these genes at the late stage of TYLCCNV A + ${\beta}$ infection and at the vegetative stage of ${\beta}C1$ transgenic N. benthamiana plants. In summary, this study revealed the pathogenicity of TYLCCNV in photosynthesis and disclosed the effect of ${\beta}C1$ in exacerbating the damage in photosynthesis efficiency by TYLCCNV infection.
