Abstract

AbstractThe phycobilisome is an important photosynthetic antenna in the photosynthetic cyanobacteria, and phycocyanin is one of the main components of phycobilisomes. It helps cells absorb green light that green-lineage photo-synthetic organisms cannot. In this work, phycocyanin, heme oxidase and ferredoxin oxidoreductase from Arthrospira platensis FACHB 314 were successfully expressed in the green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Then the effects of this expression on the photosynthesis and growth of C. reinhardtii were detected. Transcriptional level analysis showed that the phycocyanin gene was successfully expressed stably in the transgenic strains. The results of low-temperature fluorescence emission spectra and chlorophyll fluorescence showed that recombinant phycocyanin has considerable optical activity. The expression of phycocyanin, heme oxidase and ferredoxin oxidoreductase in low-light conditions is particularly evident in the promotion of photosynthesis in C. reinhardtii. The growth of transgenic strains was significantly promoted in the early growth phase under low-light conditions. However, the final growth and biomass accumulation of transgenic C. reinhardti were inhibited by this expression. In this paper, the possibility of photoenergy transfer between phycocyanin and heterologous host thylakoid membrane was researched, which provided a useful attempt for the construction of a new photosynthetic system using phycobiliprotein from cyanobacteria.One-sentence summaryPhycocyanin from Arthrospira platensis FACHB 314 expressed in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii can effect the photosynthetic system of C. reinhardtii.
