摘要
The techniques of oxygen electrode polarography and Fourier transform infrared (FT IR) spectroscopy were employed to explore the involvement of digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG) in functional and structural roles in the photosystem II core complex (PSIICC). It was shown that DGDG exhibited the ability to stimulate the oxygen evolution in PSIICC, which was accompanied by the changes in the structures of PSIICC proteins. The results revealed that there existed hydrogen bonding interactions between DGDG molecules and PSIICC proteins. It is most likely that the sites of PSIICC interaction with DGDG are in the extrinsic protein of 33 kDa.
