Adaptation of the Photosynthetic Unit of Purple Bacteria to Changes of Light Illumination Intensities

Abstract: Photosynthetic purple bacteria have developed sophisticated processes to adapt their photosynthetic unit towards changes in light illumination in which the cells grow. Some purple bacteria show pronounced modification of their PSU from changing the composition and content of photosynthetic pigments, i.e. carotenoids, to replacing different composition of polypeptides that alter the Q y absorption bands of bacteriochlorophyll. Adjusting the spectrum by shifting spectral band position or tuning absorption intens… Show more

“…According to visible spectrum observation of pigment extracts, pigment intensity could follow these trends: AB SHB PI and UGB. This qualitative pigment analysis was in accordance with semi-quantitative analysis Table 3 , The cause of inferior pigment concentration of the samples, especially UGB and PI, may be ascribed to the different blade size and morphological appearance that may also relate to different life stage/maturity, although there are other possible factors such as nutrient and salinity 43 . Gerasimenko et al 44 revealed that the content of photosynthetic pigments carotenoids and chlorophylls in brown seaweed Costaria costata increased with age.…”

“…4, under the HL or LL condition, both WT and DpucBAd showed the similar absorption spectra. The absorption maxima of BChl a and Car (spirilloxanthin series) were, respectively, assigned to 377, 590, 804, 860 nm as well as 465, 492, 524 nm, which were consistent with the living cells absorption spectrum of CGA009 (7). Compared to intact cells, the maximal peaks of absorption spectra in protein extract were more characteristic and the background values of absorption spectra were lower.…”

“…Purple bacteria have evolved a number of mechanisms to allow them to survive in changing light environment by regulating the amounts or abundance, size and compositions of LH2, the ratio of LH2 to LH1‐RC core complexes . Some species can alter their spectroscopic forms of LH2 in response to “stressed” conditions such as LH3 or LH4.…”

“…4). The light-limiting effect of the dense vegetation of S. alterni ora directly restricts the growth of PSB (He et al 2012;Li et al 2014a;Brotosudarmo et al 2015). Indeed, the absolute abundances of Chlorobi and the class Chloro exi were signi cantly negatively correlated with the aboveground biomass of plants (Fig.…”
