Linear photosynthetic electron flow (LEF) produces NADPH and generates a proton electrochemical potential gradient across the thylakoid membrane used to synthesize ATP, both of which are required for CO2fixation. As cellular demand for ATP and NADPH are variable, cyclic electron flow (CEF) between PSI and cytochromeb6fcomplex (b6f) produces extra ATP. Theb6fregulates LEF and CEF via photosynthetic control, which is a pH-dependentb6fslowdown of plastoquinol oxidation at the lumenal site. This protection mechanism is triggered at more alkaline lumen pH in thepgr1mutant of the vascular plantArabidopsis thaliana, carrying Pro194Leu in theb6fRieske Iron-sulfur protein. In this work, we introducedpgr1mutation in the green algaChlamydomonas reinhardtii(PETC-P171L). Consistent withpgr1phenotype,PETC-P171Ldisplayed an impaired NPQ induction along with slower photoautotrophic growth under high light conditions. Our data provides evidence that the ΔpH component inPETC-P171Lis dependent on oxygen availability. Only under low oxygen conditions the ΔpH component was sufficient to trigger a phenotype in algalPETC-P171Lwhere the mutantb6fwas more restricted to oxidize the PQ pool and showed a diminished electron flow through theb6fcomplex.One sentence summaryChange of PETC to P171L via site directed mutagenesis alters the pH dependency of the photosynthetic control mechanism
