ABSTRACT
Flavodiiron proteins Flv1/Flv3 accept electrons from photosystem (PS) I. In this work we investigated light adaptation mechanisms of Flv1-deficient mutant of Synechocystis PCC 6803, incapable to form the Flv1/Flv3 heterodimer. First seconds of dark-light transition were studied by parallel measurements of light-induced changes in chlorophyll fluorescence, P700 redox transformations, fluorescence emission at 77 K, and OCP-dependent fluorescence quenching. During the period of Calvin cycle activation upon dark-light transition, the linear electron transport (LET) in wild type is supported by the Flv1/Flv3 heterodimer, whereas in Δflv1 mutant activation of LET upon illumination is preceded by cyclic electron flow that maintains State 2. The State 2-State 1 transition and Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP)-dependent non-photochemical quenching occur independently of each other, begin in about 10 s after the illumination of the cells and are accompanied by a short-term re-reduction of the PSI reaction center (P700+). ApcD is important for the State 2-State 1 transition in the Δflv1 mutant, but S-M rise in chlorophyll fluorescence was not completely inhibited in Δflv1/ΔapcD mutant. LET in Δflv1 mutant starts earlier than the S-M rise in chlorophyll fluorescence, and the oxidation of plastoquinol (PQH2) pool promotes the activation of PSII, transient re-reduction of P700+ and transition to State 1. An attempt to induce state transition in the wild type under high intensity light using methyl viologen, highly oxidizing P700 and PQH2, was unsuccessful, showing that oxidation of intersystem electron-transport carriers might be insufficient for the induction of State 2-State 1 transition in wild type of Synechocystis under high light.
