| Abstract | When photosystem II (PSII) is exposed to excess light, singlet oxygen (1O2) formed by the interaction of molecular oxygen with triplet chlorophyll. Triplet chlorophyll is formed by the charge recombination of triplet radical pair 3[P680•+Pheo•−] in the acceptor-side photoinhibition of PSII. Here, we provide evidence on the formation of 1O2 in the donor side photoinhibition of PSII. Light-induced 1O2 production in Tris-treated PSII membranes was studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin-trapping spectroscopy, as monitored by TEMPONE EPR signal. Light-induced formation of carbon-centered radicals (R•) was observed by POBN-R adduct EPR signal. Increased oxidation of organic molecules at high pH enhanced the formation of TEMPONE and POBN-R adduct EPR signals in Tris-treated PSII membranes. Interestingly, the scavenging of R• by propyl gallate significantly suppressed 1O2. Based on our results, it is concluded that 1O2 formation correlates with R• formation on the donor side of PSII due to oxidation of organic molecules (lipids and proteins) by long-lived P680•+/TyrZ•. It is proposed here that the Russell mechanism for the recombination of two peroxyl radicals formed by the interaction of R• with molecular oxygen is a plausible mechanism for 1O2 formation in the donor side photoinhibition of PSII. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
