“…Light-dependent reductive activation of the ATP synthase, the CBC, and the NADP-malate dehydrogenase (NADP-MDH) by TRXs has been well established for several decades (reviewed in Buchanan, 2016). More recently, knowledge of TRX-mediated control has been extended to various regulatory and photoprotective mechanisms of photosynthesis, including regulation of state transitions (Rintamäki, Martinsuo, Pursiheimo, & Aro, 2000;Shapiguzov et al, 2016), NPQ (Brooks, Sylak-Glassman, Fleming, & Niyogi, 2013;Da et al, 2017;Hall et al, 2010;Naranjo et al, 2016) and CEF (Courteille et al, 2013;Hertle et al, 2013;Strand, Fisher, Davis, et al, 2016). We propose here a model, comprising a cooperative function of the two chloroplast TRX systems with distinct reductants and redox potentials that allows the maintenance of redox balance between the two photosystems and stromal metabolism during fluctuations in light conditions.…”
