Abstract
Light-induced redox transformations of P700, the reaction center of photosystem I, were studied using the EPR method depending on the illumination conditions of plant leaves (intensity and spectral composition of the active light). Within the framework of a mathematical model, the key stages of electron transfer along the noncyclic electron transport chain containing photosystems I and II and mobile transporters (plastoquinone, plastocyanin, and ferredoxin) and the processes of trans-thylakoid proton transfer associated with ATP synthesis were considered. The mechanisms of pH-dependent regulation of electron transport in chloroplasts at the acceptor and donor sites of photosystem I have been analyzed. The modeling results are in agreement with experimental data on the kinetics of light-induced transformations of P700 in chloroplasts of higher plants. The results are discussed in the context of “short-term” pH-dependent mechanisms of electron transport regulation in chloroplasts in situ.

期刊介绍:
Biophysics is a multidisciplinary international peer reviewed journal that covers a wide scope of problems related to the main physical mechanisms of processes taking place at different organization levels in biosystems. It includes structure and dynamics of macromolecules, cells and tissues; the influence of environment; energy transformation and transfer; thermodynamics; biological motility; population dynamics and cell differentiation modeling; biomechanics and tissue rheology; nonlinear phenomena, mathematical and cybernetics modeling of complex systems; and computational biology. The journal publishes short communications devoted and review articles.
