Abstract

In a previous study of mutants in fatty-acid desaturation of Synechocystis PCC6803, it was demonstrated that the photoinhibition of photosynthesis at low temperature in vivo is tolerated by cells as a result of the unsaturation of glycerolipids of thylakoid membranes. Since the extent of photoinhibition of photosynthesis in vivo depends on a balance between the photoinduced inactivation and the recovery from the photoinhibited state, an examination was made of the effects of the unsaturation of membrane lipids on these processes. It appears that the unsaturation of the membrane lipids does not affect the inactivation process but accelerates the recovery process and, moreover, that the apparent increase in the photoinhibition in vivo of photosynthesis at low temperature is caused by a depressed rate of recovery at low temperature.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
