A

ADP + Pi + light –> ATP : light-dependent reaction

792
Q

What are the steps in non cyclic phosphorylation

A
  1. Starts in photosystem II: electrons trapped by P680 in PS11 are energized by light
  2. Two excited e- passed to primary electron acceptor
  3. E- transport chain: consists of plastiquinone complex (PSII) which contains proteins like cyctochrome and cofactor Fe2+; analogous to oxidative phosphorylation
  4. 2 e- move to ETC –> lose energy (energy used to phosphorylate about 1.5 ATP)
  5. Photosystem I: ETC terminates with PSI (P700); they are again energized by sunlight and passed on to another e- acceptor
  6. NADPH: 2- pass down short ETC (w/proteins like ferrodoxin) to combine NADP+ + H+ + 2e- –> NADPH (coenzyme)
  7. Splitting of water (photolysis): loss of 2e- from PSII is replaced when H2O splits into 2e-, 2H+, and 1/2O2 (H+ goes for NADPH formation and 1/2O2 that contributes to release as oxygen gas) Occurs at PSII.
793
Q

794
Q

A
  1. Carboxylation: 6CO2 + 6RuBP –> 12PGA, RuBisCo (RuBP Carboxylase) catalyzes this reaction
  2. Reduction: 12ATP + 12 NADPH converts 12PGA –> 12G3P or 12 PGAL; energy is incorporated; by-products (NADP+ and ADP) go into noncyclic phosphorylation
  3. Regeneration: 6ATP convert 10G3P –> RuBP (allows cycle to repeat)
  4. Carbohydrate synthesis: 2 remaining G3P used to build glucose
    6CO2 + 18ATP + 12NADPH + H+ –> 18ADP + 18ADPi + 12NADP+ + 1 glucose (2G3P)
  5. “dark reaction” but cannot occur without light because it is dependent on high energy molecules produced from the light reaction ( ATP and NADPH)

799
Q

What is chemiosmosis

A

uses H+ gradient to generate ATP

800
Q

What are the steps in chemiosmosis

A
  1. H+ ions accumulate inside thylakoids: H+ are released into lumen when H2O is split by PSII. H+ is also carried into lumen from stroma by cytochrome between PSII and PSI
  2. pH and electrical gradient is created: about pH5
  3. ATP synthase generates ATP: phosphorylate
    ADP + Pi –> ATP (3H+ required for 1 ATP)
  4. Calvin Cycle produces 2G3P using NADPH & CO2 & ATP: end of electron transport chain following PS1, 2e- produces NADPH
801

802
Q

What is C4 photosynthesis

A

evolved from C3 when CO2 enters leaf; absorbed by mesophyll cells (then moved to bundle sheath cells); instead of being fixed by rubisco into PGA, CO2 combines with PEP to form OAA (4 C) by PEP Carboxylase

  1. OAA –> malate and then transported through plasmdodesmata into bundle sheath cell
  2. Malate –> pyruvate + CO2 (CO2 used in Calvin Cycle or C3)) (Pyruvate moved back to mesophyll–> PEP)
803
Q

What is the purpose of C4 photosynthesis

move CO2 from mesophyll to bundle sheath cell (little O2 presence reduces competition while rubisco is fixing) Minimize photorespiration and H2O loss from stomata (leaf pores)

  • Corn, sugarcane
  • occurs in bundle-sheath cells
804
Q

What is CAM photosynthesis

  3. During DAY, stomata are closed. Malic acid is out of vacuole and converted back to OAA (require 1 ATP), releasing CO2 (moved into Calvin Cycle with Rubisco) and PEP.
    • reduce H2O loss
  • Cacti, crassulacea plants
805
Q

Overall picture of photosynthesis

A
  • As leaves age, chlorophyll breaks down to extract components like Mg2+. carotenoids are visible
