Not to be confused with the chemical element chlorine (symbol: Cl, atomic number: 17), chlorins are cyclic tetrapyrroles similar to the heme of the hemoglobin (i.e., chlorins are to chlorophyll as heme to the hemoglobin). One major difference between chlorins and heme, though, is that ...
PAO contains two C-terminally-located transmembrane domains, which were considered to anchor it to the chloroplast envelope [85]. PAO exhibits an intriguing specificity for Pheide a, and Pheide b inhibits the enzyme in a competitive manner [6]. 3.2.2. Red chlorophyll catabolite reductase ...
Top panel: domain R, which contains Chl 612(11) as the lowest energy pigment. Bottom panel: domain C, whose lowest-energy pigment is Chl 622(24). The relative value of dm for different pigments in the same domain at a given energy (wavelength) gives an indication of the extent of ...
Questions: which measuring light intensities for both frequencies gives still a stable F0 value and at what measuring light intensity is the noise level still acceptable to the experimenter? 67 Chapter 4 Experimental Section 4.1.4 SP pulse length The saturation pulse is a key element of a ...
Which among the following is not a component of human blood? A. white blood cells B. red blood cells C. chlorophyll D. plasma Parts of Blood: Blood is the red liquid that constantly circulates throughout our bodies, and we see i...
The regulatory element in the 45 bp region appears to be a positive regulator or enhancer which is specific to photosynthetic cells, since the region did not enhance the promoter activity in cultured cells. This region contains an octamer, TGCCACGT (cab2) or TGCCACAT (cab3), which is ...
In addition, the expression of TCP3-SRDX, in which the Arabidopsis TCP3 gene is fused to a sequence encoding the Ethylene-responsive element-binding factor-associated amphiphilic repression motif, causes wavy margins in the dorsal petals of Torenia fournieri and smaller petals of ray flowers in ...
Even though the SCP mutant contains less PSII centers [9] and also less chlorophyll (Table 1), the expression of genes for PSII proteins and chlorophyll biosynthesis pathway was quite surprisingly shown to be enhanced. This apparent discrepancy between low product and high synthesis capacity can ...
the mechanisms by which the imported nuclear-encoded proteins are delivered to these pathways remain largely unknown. Here we show that anArabidopsisankyrin protein, LTD (mutation of which causes the light-harvesting chlorophyll-binding protein translocation defect), is localized in the chloroplast and ...
(PIFs) and activated by photoactivated phytochromes, which in turn degrade PIFs and mediate a coordinated induction of the genes. The promoters ofPSYand the co-expressed genes were found to contain an enrichment in putative BR-auxin response elements and G-boxes, which bind PIFs, further ...
