Effect of PG depletion on heat inactivation of photosynthetic oxygen-evolving activity. Wild-type (squares), PG-depleted pgsA (circles), ΔpsbO (triangles), ΔpsbV (inverted triangles), and ΔpsbU (pentagons) cells were incubated for 20 min at the designated temperatures and photosynthetic oxygen-evolving activity was measured at 30°C. One hundred percent activity reflects the activity after incubation at 30°C for 20 min and were 1,030, 440, 840, 821, and 959 μmol O2 mg Chl−1 108 cells−1 for wild-type cells and PG-depleted pgsA, ΔpsbO, ΔpsbV, and ΔpsbU mutant cells, respectively.
