Photoprotective, excited-state quenching mechanisms in diverse photosynthetic organisms.
Journal of Biological Chemistry 2018 April 7
Light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) serve a dual role in photosynthesis, depending on the prevailing light conditions. In low light, they ensure photosynthetic efficiency by maximizing the light absorption cross-section and subsequent energy storage. Under excess light conditions, LHCs perform photoprotective quenching functions to prevent harmful chemical species such as triplet chlorophyll and singlet oxygen from forming and damaging the photosynthetic apparatus. In this Minireview, various photoprotective quenching mechanisms that have been identified in different photosynthetic organisms are surveyed and summarized, and implications for improving photosynthetic productivity are briefly discussed.
