Abstract:SummaryXanthophyll cycles have proven to be major contributors to photoacclimation for many organisms. This work describes a light-driven xanthophyll cycle operating in the chlorophyte Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and involving the xanthophylls Lutein (L) and Loroxanthin (Lo). Pigments were quantified during a switch from high to low light and at different time points from cells grown in Day/night cycle. Trimeric LHCII was purified from cells acclimated to high or low light and their pigment content and spectrosc… Show more
