The 515 nm absorbance change was studied in mesophyll and bundle sheath chloroplasts of maize, which contain different amounts of grana. The amplitude of the 515 nm signal (induced by 3 micro seconds flashes repeated at 4 s intervals) has shown a correlation with the granum content of the samples. However, upon addition of N-methylphenazonium methosulphate the 515 nm signal became independent of the amount of grana: in agranal thylakoids a large pool of silent Photosystem I was activated and, as a result, the amplitude of the 515 nm signal of agranal chloroplasts increased to the level exhibited by granal chloroplasts. These data show that the 515 nm absorbance change is not limited to small closed vesicles like grana, but in the presence of suitable electron donors single lamellae of bundle sheath chloroplasts can also be active.
