Flavodiiron proteins act as safety valve for electrons in Physcomitrella patens.

TL;DR: In P. patens, Flavodiiron (FLV) proteins are acting as an electron sink to avoid photosynthetic electron transport chain over-reduction after any increase in illumination and are fundamental for protection under fluctuating light conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flavodiiron Protein Flv2/Flv4-Related Photoprotective Mechanism Dissipates Excitation Pressure of PSII in Cooperation with Phycobilisomes in Cyanobacteria

TL;DR: Results of biophysical measurements indicate that the flv4-2 operon functions in an alternative electron transfer pathway from PSII, and thus alleviates PSII excitation pressure by channeling up to 30% of PSII-originated electrons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hunting the main player enabling Chlamydomonas reinhardtii growth under fluctuating light.

TL;DR: Different roles, yet a close relationship, are suggested between the function of PGR5, PGRL1 and FDP proteins in photoprotection, with flv mutant lines unable to survive even mild FL conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new approach for sustained and efficient H2 photoproduction by Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

TL;DR: Sustained H2 photoproduction is demonstrated in green algae under a train of strong white light pulses interrupted by longer dark phases, which relies on the presence of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase in algal chloroplasts.
