PCC 6803 cells grown in the BG-11 medium containing different concentrations of glucose and Na2S2O3 in this study. It was found that Na2S2O3 can effectively increase the percentage of sulphoquinovosyl diacylglycerol (SQDG) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG) to total membrane lipids and the simultaneous application of glucose with Na2S2O3 can counteract the effect of Na2S2O3. In addition, Na2S2O3 can significantly increase the percentage of palmitic acid (C, 16:0) in fatty acid composition of monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG) and decrease the fatty acid unsaturation degree accordingly, and these effects can also be eliminated by glucose. These results indicate that Na2S2O3 can take as a reductant to make membrane lipids in a low unsaturated state, and the simultaneous application of glucose can decrease the reducing power of Na2S2O3. In addition, Na2S2O3 can take as a sulfur donor for the synthesis of SQDG.展开更多

Another population (control) was reared under natural atmospheric conditions. Reserves of triacylglycerol, polysaccharides and free amino acids were evaluated in adults of the CA selected and the control populations in generations F 15 and F 30 The utilization rate of triacylglycerol and polysaccharides in the CA exposure were also determined in generation F 30. The results indicate that the reserves of triacylglycerol and polysaccharides increased significantly during selection for CA tolerance; the higher the tolerance level, the greater the reserves. A total of 15 free amino acids constituents were detected in both populations. The total amino acid content in the CA selected population was obviously higher than that in the control population. Exposure of this population to a controlled atmosphere was associated with a steady utilization of reserves. In contrast, the unselected population responded to the controlled atmosphere by accelerated utilization of triacylglycerol and polysachharides. Comparison of utilization rates during CA exposure showed that triacylglycerol is the main energy source, and polysaccharides contribute only a small extent to the metabolic energy supply.展开更多
