摘要

Cu~(2+)对 S.maxima的生长和光合放氧均有抑制作用;高浓度Cu~(2+)藻细胞中藻胆体产生的特征光吸收和荧光显著下降,表明藻胆体是Cu~(2+)作用位点之一。Cu~(2+)可促使离体的藻蓝蛋白变性,使其光吸收和荧光减弱、荧光偏振度减小,而别藻蓝蛋白对Cu~(2+)的作用不敏感。根据这些结果推测,Cu~(2+)可能通过对藻胆体中的藻蓝蛋白的作用,抑制藻胆体的光能吸收和传递。

Abstract

In the paper, the authors studied the effects of Cu~(2+) on the growth and photosynthesis of blue green algae Spirulina maxima, and on the phycobilisomes(PBS) by absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum. These results showed that the concentrations of Cu~(2+) inhibiting algal growth and algal photosynthetic oxygen evolution were 10 #mu#mol L~(-1) and 150 #mu#mol L~(-1) , respectivly. Cu~(2+) also decreased the characteristic light absorption density of PBS (Fig.3). The changes of fluorescence intensities of PBS caused by different Cu~(2+) concentrations were observed (Fig.4). These results indicated that the PBS was a site of Cu~(2+) acting on. In vitro, Cu~(2+) could denature phycocyanin (PC) and decrease its visible light absorption peak , fluorescence peak and degree of fluorescence polarization . However, allophycocyanin (APC) was insensitive to Cu~(2+). The results suggested that Cu~(2+) acts on PC of PBS and inhibits light absorption and transmission of PBS.
