Scope And Outline Of This Thesis

Chapter 1: Introduction to Photosynthetic Energy Transduction in Cyanobacteria

Chapter 2: Characterization and transcriptional regulation of the Synechocystis PCC 6803 petH gene, encoding Ferredoxin-NADP+ oxidoreductase: Involvement of a novel type of divergent operator.

Chapter 3: The N-terminal CpcD homologous domain of FerredoxiniNADF+ reductase from Synechocystis PCC 6803 is required for salt-shock induced increase in Photosystem I dependent cyclic electron transport

Chapter 4: Kinetic evidence for a PsaE dependent transient ternary complex photosystem I / ferredoxin / ferredoximNADP+ reductase in a cyanobacterium

Chapter 5: Synechocystis PCC 6803 ferredoxin:NADP+ reductase is tightly bound to the core-proximal phycocyanin hexamer of the phycobilisome complex, yet does not significantly contribute to energy transfer to the reaction centers.

Chapter 6: Conditional circadian transcriptional control of chaperone-encoding dnaK and of the light-stimulated genes petH and psbA in Synechocystis PCC 6803

Chapter 7: Characterization of the Photoconversion of Green Fluorescent Protein with FTIR spectroscopy

Chapter 8: General conclusions
