摘要
Nitric oxide (NO) stimulated the activity of plasma membrane H+-ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase, peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase in ultraviolet B (UV-B) irradiated Chlorella pyrenoidosa. It also boosted the activity of nitrogen-metabolism enzymes such as nitrate reductase, nitrite reductase, glutamine synthetase, which were inhibited by UV-B irradiation. The chlorophyll fluorescence ratio (Fv/Fm) of the UV-B irradiated algae and decreased continuously after the cells were transferred to UV-B irradiation. A continuing decrease of the Fv/Fm was observed even after the cells were transferred to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). After adaptation for 8 h under PAR (after treatment with nitric oxide), Fv/Fm recovered to 55% of normal levels - without NO the value approached zero. Exogenous NO stopped the decay of chlorophyll and thylakoid membrane in cells exposed to UV-B irradiation. NO plays probably a key role in damage induced by UV-B irradiation in green algae.
