PsaE- and NdhF-mediated electron transport affect bicarbonate transport rather than carbon dioxide uptake in the cyanobacteriumSynechococcus sp. PCC7002
The wild-type and three deletional interposon mutants (psaE, ndhF, psaE/ndhF) ofSynechococcus sp. PCC7002 were analysed with respect to their ability to induce the CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM). The response ...

Characterisation of carbon dioxide and bicarbonate transport during steady-state photosynthesis in the marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus strain PCC7002
Net O2 evolution, gross CO2 uptake and net HCO inf3 su− uptake during steady-state photosynthesis were investigated by a recently developed mass-spectrometric ...

Characterisation of inorganic carbon fluxes, carbonic anhydrase(s) and ribulose-1,5-biphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase in the green unicellular alga Coccomyxa
Processes involved in the uptake and fixation of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) were characterised for Coccomyxa, the green algal primary photobiont of the lichen Peltigera aphthosa and compared with the freeli...

Specific reduction of chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity by antisense RNA reduces CO2 assimilation via a reduction in ribulose bisphosphate regeneration in transgenic tobacco plants
The reduction of 3-phosphoglycerate (PGA) to triose phosphate is a key step in photosynthesis linking the photochemical events of the thylakoid membranes with the carbon metabolism of the photosynthetic carbon...

Photobiont-related differences in carbon acquisition among green-algal lichens
The photosynthetic properties of a range of lichens (eight species) containing green algal primary photobionts of either the genus Coccomyxa, Dictyochloropsis or Trebouxia were examined with the aim of obtaining ...

Article
Evidence for the functioning of photosynthetic CO2-concentrating mechanisms in lichens containing green algal and cyanobacterial photobionts
The photosynthetic properties of a range of lichens containing both green algal (11 species) and cyanobacterial (6 species) photobionts were examined with the aim of determining if there was clear evidence for...

The relationship between steady-state gas exchange of bean leaves and the levels of carbon-reduction-cycle intermediates
The relationship between the gas-exchange characteristics of attached leaves of Phaseolus vulgaris L. and the pool sizes of several carbon-reduction-cycle intermediates was examined. After determining the rate of...

Effects of water stress on photosynthetic electron transport, photophosphorylation, and metabolite levels of Xanthium strumarium mesophyll cells
Several component processes of photosynthesis were measured in osmotically stressed mesophyll cells of Xanthium strumarium L. The ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate regeneration capacity was reduced by water stress. Photo...

Molecular weight and quaternary structure of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase from the cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp.
Ribulose bisphosphate (RuP2) carboxylase from the marme cyanobacterium, Synechococcus sp., comprised both large (57,000 dalton) and small (12,000 dalton) subunits. The undissociated, purified enzyme was considera...

Photosynthesis and the intracellular inorganic carbon pool in the bluegreen alga Anabaena variabilis: Response to external CO2 concentration
The apparent photosynthetic affinity of A. variabilis to CO2 is greatly affected by the CO2 concentration in the medium during growth. Halfmaximal rate of photosynthetic O2 evolution is achieved at 10 μM and 100 ...
