This document discusses key concepts related to ATP synthesis in photosynthesis including:
1) Coupling factors and the chemiosmotic mechanism of ATP synthesis, where a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane powers ATP synthase to form ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate.
2) The concept of quantum yield, which is the number of oxygen molecules released per photon of light absorbed in photosynthesis.
3) The difference between light and dark reactions, cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation, and how assimilatory powers like ATP and NADPH are generated during the light reaction.
Photosynthesis is a major process which all should know. For this only this ppt has been made to understand the basics as well as more about it . It will help all students in their project submission. Hope find well.

Living cells require transfusions of energy from outside sources to perform their many tasks. All organism need to obtain this energy from organic molecules of food through photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Respiration breaks this fuel down, using oxygen and generating ATP. The waste products of this type of respiration, carbon dioxide and water, are the raw materials for photosynthesis. In this slide, I try to explain how cells harvest this energy stored in organic molecules and used it to generate ATP through cellular respiration.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

1. COUPLING FACTORS AND MECHANISM OF ATP
SYNTHESIS AND CONCEPT OF QUANTUM YIELD
PRESENTED BY,
P S KIRAN

2. LIGHT REACTION V/S DARK REACTION
• What differentiate between light and dark reactions?
• Does dark reaction completely independent of light?
• What happens in light reaction?
• Cyclic and Non cyclic photophosphorylation
• What is the difference between NADPH and NADH2?
• How the assimilatory powers are formed in light reaction?
• Coupling factors and mechanism of ATP synthesis
• Concept of quantum yield
4. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIGHT AND DARK REACTION
LIGHT REACTION
• Light reaction only takes place in the
presence of light
• Takes place in grana
• Also called photo-chemical phase
• Oxidation of water and production of
“assimilatory powers”
DARK REACTION
• Takes place with the presence or
absence of sunlight
• Takes place in stroma
• Also called as biosynthetic phase
• Reduction of co2 to carbohydrate
using the “assimilatory powers”
5. DOES DARK REACTION IS COMPLETELY
INDEPENDENT OF LIGHT?
• This is a misnomer that light reaction occurs in morning(presence of sunlight) and
dark reaction occurs in the night(absence of sunlight)
• Light reaction and dark reaction occurs spontaneously i.e , one after the other
• Four enzymes in dark reaction are indirectly dependent (activated) on light
a)Ribulose 5-phosphate kinase
b)Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase
c)Sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphatase
d)Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase
6. WHAT HAPPENS IN LIGHT REACTION?
• Light dependant phase of photosynthesis in which ATP and NADPH are formed in
the presence of light
• Consists of following steps:
a) light absorption
b) water splitting
c)oxygen release
d)formation of high energy chemical intermediates (ATP & NADPH)
7. LIGHT ABSORPTION
Chl + h 𝜗 → Chl*
Role of photosystems I and II (PSI and PSII)
Light absorbed by PSII PSII* ETC (pheophytin,PQ,Cyt b6f
complex) PSI PSI*
PSII-680nm & PSI-700nm
PSI present in stroma lamellae and non appressed region of grana
whereas PSII present in appressed region of grana lamella
Photosystem I produces a strong reductant, capable of
reducing NADP+, and a weak oxidant
Photosystem II produces a very strong oxidant, capable of oxidizing water,
and a weaker reductant than the one produced by photosystem I.
8.
9. WATER SPLITTING
• Complex for splitting of water present in inner side of thylakoid membrane
attached to PSII
• H+ ions , e- and oxygen is liberated on photolysis of water
• PSII is essential for photolysis of water to occur
• H2O 2H+ + 2e- + O2
10. OXYGEN RELEASE
• Oxygen is liberated from splitting of water and not from carbon dioxide
• Oxygen produced as a by product in splitting of water is liberated in the lumen of
the thylakoid which then diffuses into the stroma
11. FORMATION OF ASSIMILATORY POWERS
• ATP and NADPH are called as the assimilatory powers of light reaction which is
used as reducing agent in carbon fixation in dark reaction
• ATP and NADPH is formed in non cyclic photophosphorylation whereas in cyclic
photophosphorylation only ATP is formed
• NADP reductase enzyme is present in the outer membrane of thylakoid
• H+ ions for reduction of NADP comes from stroma
12. CYCLIC AND NON CYCLIC
PHOTOPHOSPHORYLATION
CYCLIC PHOTOPHOSPHORYLATION
• PSI is functional
• Only ATP is formed
• Photolysis of water is absent
• Mostly occurs in stroma lamella
• Found dominant in photosynthetic
bacteria
NON CYCLIC
PHOTOPHOSPHORYLATION
• Both PSI and PSII are functional
• ATP and NADPH is formed
• Photolysis of water is present
• Occurs mostly in grana lamella
• Dominant in green plants
13.
14. NADPH AND NADH2
NADPH
• Occurs as an assimilatory power in
photosynthetic light reaction
• Mostly involved in anabolic processes
• Acts as a strong reducing agent for
reducing carbon dioxide to glucose
NADH2
• Occurs as a proton carrier in
respiration
• Mostly involved in catabolic
processes
• It liberates ATP when required and
also act as a proton carrier in
mitochondrial ETC
15. PROTON TRANSPORT AND ATP
SYNTHESIS IN THE CHLOROPLAST
• In the preceding sections we learned how captured light energy is used to reduce
NADP+ to NADPH. Another fraction of the captured light energy is used for light-
dependent ATP synthesis, which is known as photophosphorylation
• It is now widely accepted that photo phosphorylation works via the chemiosmotic
mechanism, first proposed in the 1960s by Peter Mitchell.
• Differences in chemical potential of any molecular species whose concentrations are
not the same on opposite sides of a membrane provide such a source of energy.
• The direction of proton translocation is such that the stroma becomes more alkaline
(fewer H+ ions) and the lumen becomes more acidic (more H+ ions) as a result of
electron transport
16.
17. COUPLING FACTORS AND MECHANISM OF ATP
SYNTHESIS
• Chemiosmotic hypothesis by Peter Mitchell
• ATP production driven by proton gradient difference
• High concentration of H+ in lumen and low concentration of H+ in stroma creates
a gradient and proton is transported from lumen to stroma through CF0-CF1
complex
• CF0 is an integral protein present in the outer thylakoid membrane which helps in
the facilitated diffusion of H+ from lumen to stroma
• CF1 is the ATP synthase complex where iP combines with ADP to form ATP in the
presence of high energy H+ ions

28. CONCEPT OF QUANTUM YIELD
• The number of photons/quanta required to release one molecule of oxygen in
photosynthesis is called as quantum requirement . On the other hand, number
of oxygen molecule released per photon of light in photosynthesis is called as
quantum yield . The quantum yield is always in fraction of one
29. RED DROP AND EMERSON ENHANCEMENT EFFECT
• Sudden fall in photosynthesis yield observed beyond red region of visible
spectrum is called Red drop/Emerson’s first effect
• The increase in photosynthetic activity by combined effect of short and long
wavelengths of light is called Emerson’s enhancement effect/second effect
