  • This work deals with different extraction media and reaction mixtures on photosystem II activity of Spinach chloroplasts. The photoreduction rate of ferricyanide and DPIP by intact chloroplasts which extracted with four kinds of extraction media; S-Tris-N pH 7.2, 8.0, S-Tricine-N pH 7.2, 8.0, was measured in five kinds of reaction mixtures; S-Tris-N pH 7.2, 8.0, S-Tricine-N pH 7.2, 8.0, 0.05 M-Tris pH 7.2. The extraction medium which shows the highest photoreduction rate was S-Tris-N at pH 7.2 and S-Tricine-N at pH 8.0. As to the reaciton mixture, S-Tricine-N pH 8.0 showed the highest rate. On the complex effects of extraction media and reaction mixtures, the highest photordeuction rate of Hill oxidant by intact chloroplasts was obtained by S-Tris-N pH 7.2 extraction medium and S-Tricine-N pH 8.0 reaction mixture. The second highest activity was obtained by S-Tricine-N pH 8.0 extraction medium and reaction mixture.

  • CHilling tolereance of plants are closely correlated with the degree of fatty acid unsaturation of membrane lipids. We studied the effects of low-temperature photoinhibition on the photochemical efficiency of photosystem II in terms of fatty acid unsaturation of thylakoid membranes lipids isolated from chilling -sensitive plants and chilling -resistant ones. To directly test the chilling tolerance of photosynthetic machinery in relation to membrane lipids, we further compared wild type tobacco plants with that of transgenic tobacco plants, in which the sensitivity to chilling had been enhanced by genetic modification of fatty acid unsaturation of chloroplast membrane lipids. The transgenic tobacco plants were found to contain reduced levels of unsaturated membrane fatty acids after being transformed with cDNA for glycerol-3-phophate acyltransferase from squash. The functional integrity of photosystem II during and recovery of photosynthesis from low-temperature photoinhibition will be discussed in connection with the degree of fatty acid unsaturation of chlorophast membranes lipids.

  • In green plants, energy generation is accomplished through light-harvesting photosystem, which utilize abundant visible light and multi-stepwise redox reaction to oxidize water and reduce NADP+, transferring electrons efficiently with active cofactors1. Inspired by natural photosynthesis, artificial solar water-splitting devices are being designed variously. However, the several approaches involving immobilization2, conjugation3, and surface modification4 still have limitations. We have made artificial photosynthesis templates by self-assembling tyrosine-based peptide to mimick photosystem II. Porphyrin sensitizer absorbing blue light strongly was conjugated with the templates and they were hybridized with cobalt oxide through the reduction of cobalt ions in an aqueous solution. The formation of hybrid templates was characterized using TEM, and their water oxidation performance was measured by fluorescence oxygen probe. Our results suggest that the bio-templated assembly of functional compounds has a great potential for artificial photosynthesis.

  • This study was performed to investigate the physiological responses of Oplopanax elatus by water condition. Drought stress was induced by withholding water for 26 days. The results show that $P_{N\;max}$, SPAD, gs, E and Ci were significantly decreased with decreasing of soil moisture contents. However, AQY and WUE were decreased slightly only at 26 day. This implies that photosynthetic rate is reduced due to an inability to regulate water and $CO_2$ exchange through the stomatal. According to JIP analysis, ${\Phi}_{PO}$, ${\Psi}_O$, ${\Phi}_{EO}$ and $PI_{ABS}$ were dramatically decreased at 21 day and 26 day, which reflects the relative reduction state of the photosystem II. On the other hand, the relative activities per reaction center such as ABS/RC, TRo/RC were significantly increased at 26 day. Particularly, Dio/RC and DIo/CS increased substantially under drought stress, indicating that excessive energy was consumed by heat dissipation. These results of chlorophyll a fluorescence show that the sensitivity changes photosystem II activity. Thus, according to the results, O. elatus was exhibited a strong reduction of photosynthetic activity to approximately 10% soil moisture contents, and JIP parameters could be useful indicator to monitor the physiological states of O. elatus under drought stress.

  • The occurrence of exotic weeds and their influx into farmlands due to climate change poses many problems. Therefore, it is necessary to generate a prediction model for the occurrence pattern of these exotic weeds based on scientific evidence and devise prevention measures. The photosynthetic apparatus is known as the most temperature-sensitive component of a plant cell and its initial response to temperature stress is to inhibit the activation of photosystem II. This study investigated the potential of OJIP transients in assessing temperature stress in exotic weeds. The four exotic weeds currently flowing into Korean farmlands include Amaranthus spinosus, Conyza bonariensis, Crassocephalum crepidioides, and Amaranthus viridis. These weeds were treated at 5℃, 10℃, 15℃, 20℃, 25℃, 30℃, 35℃, and 40℃ and the OJIP curves and JIP parameters were measured and analyzed. The results showed that heat and chilling stress affected the photosystem II(PSII) electron transport of A. spinosus, whereas C. crepidioides and A. viridis were more affected by high-temperature stress than by low-temperature stress. Lastly, C. bonariensis showed resistance to both high and low-temperature stress. The results of this study suggest that OJIP transients and JIP parameters can be used to analyze damage to the photosynthetic apparatus by temperature stress and that they can serve as sensitive indicators for the occurrence pattern of exotic weeds.

  • 기질 분자로서 6-bromobenzo-[4,5]imidazo[$1,2{\alpha}$]pyridin-8,9-diones 유도체의 photosystem II의 저해활성에 관한 3차원적인 정량적 구조와 활성과의 관계(3D-QSARs)들을 비교 분자장분석(CoMFA)과 비교분자 유사성 지수분석(CoMSIA) 방법으로 각각 검토하였다. CoMFA 모델은 CoMSIA 모델보다 높은 예측성과 상관성을 갖는 모델이었다. 또한 최적화된 CoMFA 2 모델의 기여도는 입체장(90.4%)에 가장 의존적이었다. CoMFA 등고도 분석으로부터, 치환기(R)로서 모체로 연결되는 탄소원자(ipso carbon)에 곁가지를 가진 치환체가 도입될수록 저해활성이 증가할 것으로 보인다. 또한, imidazol 고리와 pyridine 고리 사이의 위치에 양하전을 가질수록 활성이 높을 것으로 예상되며 친수성을 띄는 선 형태의 치환기가 도입되는 경우에 활성이 개선될 것으로 판단되었다.
