Molecular design of the photosystem II light-harvesting antenna: photosynthesis and photoprotection

Open access
Horton, P.·2004·Journal of Experimental Botany

Abstract

The photosystem II (PSII) light-harvesting system carries out two essential functions, the efficient collection of light energy for photosynthesis, and the regulated dissipation of excitation energy in excess of that which can be used. This dual function requires structural and functional flexibility, in which light-harvesting proteins respond to an external signal, the thylakoid DeltapH, to induce feedback control. This process, referred to as non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) depends upon the xanthophyll cycle and the PsbS protein. In nature, NPQ is heterogeneous in terms of kinetics and capacity, and this adapts photosynthetic systems to the specific dynamic features of the light environment. The molecular features of the thylakoid membrane which may enable this flexibility and plasticity are discussed.

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.
