The marine chlorophyte Dunaliella tertiolecta Butcher responds to a one-step transition from a high growth irradiance level (700 micromoles quanta per square meter per second) to a low growth irradiance level (70 micromoles quanta per square meter per second) by increasing the total amount of light-harvesting chlorophyll (Chl) a/b binding protein associated with photosystem II (LHC II), and by modifying the relative abundance of individual LHC II apoproteins. When high light-adapted cells were incubated with gabaculine, which inhibits Chl synthesis, and transferred to low light, the LHC II apoproteins were still synthesized and the (35)S-labeled LHC II apoproteins remained stable after a 24 hour chase. These results suggest that Chl synthesis is not required for stability of the LHC II apoproteins in this alga. However, when the control cells are transferred from high light to low light, the amount of the four LHC II apoproteins per cell increases, whereas it does not in the presence of gabaculine. These results suggest that Chl synthesis is required for a photoadaptive increase in the cellular level of LHC II.
