Abstract :
[en] In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, prolonged anaerobiosis leads to the expression of enzymes <br />Received 30 August 2012 belonging to various fermentative pathways. Among them, oxygen-sensitive hydrogenases <br />Received in revised form (HydA1/2) catalyze the synthesis of molecular hydrogen from protons and reduced ferre- <br />12 November 2012 doxin in the stroma. In this work, by analyzing wild type and mutants affected in H2 <br />Accepted 16 November 2012 production, we show that maximal PSII photosynthetic electron transfer during the first <br />Available online 21 December 2012 seconds of illumination after a prolonged dark-anaerobiosis period is linearly related to <br />hydrogenase capacity. Based on the specific chlorophyll fluorescence induction kinetics <br />Keywords: typical of hydrogenase-deficient mutants, we set up an in vivo fluorescence imaging <br />Chlamydomonas reinhardtii screening protocol allowing to isolate mutants impaired in hydrogenase expression or <br />Anaerobic photosynthesis activity, as well as mutants altered in related metabolic pathways required for energy <br />Hydrogenase production in anaerobiosis. Compared to previously described screens for mutants <br />Chlorophyll fluorescence impaired in H2 production, our screening method is remarkably fast, sensitive and non- <br />Microalgae invasive. Out of 3000 clones from a small-sized insertional mutant library, five mutants <br />Hydrogen photoproduction were isolated and the most affected one was analyzed and shown to be defective for the <br />hydrogenase HydG assembly factor.
