Abstract: | During leaf senescence, the degradation of photosystems and photosynthetic pigments proceeds in a coordinated manner, which would minimize the potential photodamage to cells. Both photosystem I and II are composed of core complexes and peripheral antenna complexes, with the former binding chlorophyll a and the latter binding chlorophyll a and b. Although the degradation of peripheral antenna complexes is initiated by chlorophyll degradation, it remains unclear whether the degradation of core complexes and chlorophyll is coordinated. In this study, we examined the degradation of peripheral antenna and core complexes in the Arabidopsis sgr1/sgr2/ sgrl triple mutant, lacking all the isoforms of chlorophyll a:Mg2+ dechelatase. In this mutant, the degradation of peripheral antenna complexes and photosystem I core complexes was substantially retarded, but the core complexes of photosystem II were rapidly degraded during leaf senescence. On the contrary, the photosynthetic activity declined at a similar rate as in the wild type plants. These results suggest that the degradation of photosystem II core complexes is regulated independently of the major chlorophyll degradation pathway mediated by the dechelatase. The study should contribute to the understanding of the complex molecular mechanisms underlying the degradation of photosystems, which is an essential step during leaf senescence. |
