VG28 and its wild type Zhonghuau. Native green gel and SDS-PAGE electrophoreses revealed that the mutant VG28 lacked all light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein complexes. Both the mutant and wild type were sensitive to high temperatures, and the maximal efficiency of PSII photochemistry (FJ Fm) and oxygen-evolving activity of PSII in leaves significantly decreased with increasing temperature. However, the PSII activity of the mutant was markedly more sensitive to high temperatures than that of the wild type. Lipid composition analysis showed that the mutant had less phosphatidylglycerol and sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol compared with the wild type. Fatty acid analysis revealed that the mutant had an obvious decrease in the content of 16:1t and a marked increase in the content of 18:3 compared with the wild type. The effects of lipid composition and unsaturation of membrane lipids on the thermostability of PSII are discussed.展开更多

The ion channels of membrane properties induced by PF -_6 were studied by the cyclic voltammetric methods. Experimental results indicated that the ion channel of BLM was open in the presence of the PF -_6 due to the interaction of PF -_6 with the BLM, while it was switched off in the absence of PF -_6. Because the ion channel behavior was affected by the concentration of PF -_6, a sensor for PF -_6 can be developed.展开更多
