| Abstract | Generation of action potential (AP) in plasma membranes of characean algae has a strong impact on photoreactions occurring in chloroplasts. Under physiological conditions, AP suppresses electron transport in alkaline and acidic regions, although to a different extent; these changes are transient and reversible. In the presence of the artificial electron acceptor, methyl viologen (MV$^{2+}$), AP-induced changes in electron transport in photosystem II become irreversible. Incubation of Chara corallina internodal cells with MV$^{2+}$ has no effect on the chlorophyll P700 photooxidation kinetics in photosystem I reaction centers, suggesting that MV$^{2+}$ is inaccessible for interactions with photosystem I, because its permeation into chloroplasts of a resting cell is hindered by membrane barriers. At the same time, AP generation in the presence of MV$^{2+}$ is accompanied by irreversible modification of P700 photooxidation kinetics, as can be evidenced from differences in absorption changes at 810 and 870 nm (ΔA $_{810}$ signals). These findings suggest that MV$^{2+}$ permeation into chloroplasts in situ is facilitated during or after the AP generation. Similar to the ΔA $_{810}$ signals, light-induced changes in membrane potential do not depend on the presence of MV$^{2+}$ in the external medium until the first excitatory stimulus is applied. Electric photoresponses of the cell are irreversibly modified by AP generated in the presence of MV$^{2+}$ at the expense of non-cyclic photosynthetic electron transport redirected to the MV$^{2+}$ reduction. It is concluded that AP effects on chloroplast photosynthesis in situ are complex and involve permeability changes for MV$^{2+}$ in membrane barriers of the “plasmalemma-chloroplast envelope” system. |

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.
