真核微藻蓝光受体及其功能研究进展
Research Progress on Blue-photoreceptors and Its Functions in Eukaryotic Microalgae
摘要
Abstract
Eukaryotic microalgae,as a kind of photosynthetic eukaryotes,originate from endosymbiotic events. Their broad varieties, wide distribution,and complexity of evolutionary history make it become an ideal experimental material for research in algal stress physiology. Light is one of the important signal factors in the environment,it is not only the energy source for eukaryotic microalgae,but also provides information,and regulates the growth and development. For adapting the information of light intensity,quality and cycles,eukaryotic microalgae form a set system of fine light signal receiving and transducing during the long-time evolution. Photoreceptor plays the critical linkage role of receiving and transforming in the light signal pathway. Based on the various wavelengths of light,there are four types of photoreceptors, i.e.,red/far-red,blue,green and ultraviolet. Blue-photoreceptors can perceive 320-400 nm light and play key roles in the regulation of multiple plant physiological processes. Referenced by the study advances on the structures and functions of blue-photoreceptors in higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana,we summarized the study advances on the photoreceptor of eukaryotic microalgae,mainly focusing on their gene cloning, protein structure,molecular evolution,photochemical characteristics,physiological functions,and light signal transduction. Moreover,we suggested the future issues and focuses on the studies of blue-photoreceptors in eukaryotic microalgae,which provide reference for the research of blue photoreceptors from eukaryotic microalgae.关键词
