Effects of Crosslinking Agent-DFDNB on Energy-transducing Reactions of Chloroplast Thylakoid Membrane Proteins

Abstract: The effects of crosslinking agent-DFDNB (difluoro dinitro benzene) on functions of chloroplast thylakoid membrane proteins were investigated. DFDNB inhibited activities of PSP and membrane-bound ATPase in chloroplasts. It decreased proton uptake of light-inducted chloroplast thylakoids and the relative value of fluorescence quenching of 9-aminoacridine, and inhibited the rate of fast electrogenic phase of absorption change at 515 nm in chloroplasts. In addition, the isolated CF1-ATPase was crosslinked with DFDNB. The pattern of polymers of crosslinked CF1-ATPase was observed on SDS-PAGE.

Key words: DFDNB (difluore dinitro benzene), Thylakoids, Protein, Energy-trasduc-ing reaction, Crosslinking
