| Abstract | In most oxygenic phototrophs, including cyanobacteria, two independent enzymes catalyze the reduction of protochlorophyllide to chlorophyllide, which is the penultimate step in chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthesis. One is light-dependent NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (LPOR) and the second type is dark-operative protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (DPOR). To clarify the roles of both enzymes, we assessed synthesis and accumulation of Chl-binding proteins in mutants of cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 that either completely lack LPOR or possess low levels of the active enzyme due to its ectopic regulatable expression. The LPOR-less mutant grew photoautotrophically in moderate light and contained a maximum of 20 % of the wild-type (WT) Chl level. Both Photosystem II (PSII) and Photosystem I (PSI) were reduced to the same degree. Accumulation of PSII was mostly limited by the synthesis of antennae CP43 and especially CP47 as indicated by the accumulation of reaction center assembly complexes. The phenotype of the LPOR-less mutant was comparable to the strain lacking DPOR that also contained <25 % of the wild-type level of PSII and PSI when cultivated under light-activated heterotrophic growth conditions. However, in the latter case, we detected no reaction center assembly complexes, indicating that synthesis was almost completely inhibited for all Chl-proteins, including the D1 and D2 proteins. |

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.
