| Abstract | It has been suggested that both free metals and reduced ferredoxin (Fd) participate in the light-induced production of hydroxyl radicals (OH˙) in thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. The most direct evidence for the involvement of Fd in OH˙ formation under physiological conditions was reported by Jakob and Heber (Plant Cell Physiol., 1996, 37, 629–635), who used the oxidation of dimethylsulfoxide to methane sulfinic acid as an indicator of OH˙ production. We confirmed their conclusions using a more sensitive and reliable EPR spin-trapping method and extended their work by additional findings. Free metal-dependent and ferredoxin-dependent OH˙ production was studied simultaneously and strong metal chelator Desferal was used to distinguish between these reaction pathways. The participation of protein-bound iron within photosystem I was confirmed by partial suppression of OH˙ generation in broken chloroplasts by methyl viologen. The enhancement in the production of OH˙ in thylakoid membranes by externally added ferredoxin can be considered as a straightforward evidence of the involvement of ferredoxin in OH˙ formation. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
