The generation of nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence
(qN) in the antenna of photosystem II (PSII) is accompanied by the
de-epoxidation of violaxanthin to antheraxanthin and zeaxanthin. The
function of zeaxanthin in two mechanisms of qN, energy-dependent quenching
(qE) and photoinhibitory quenching (qI), was investigated by measuring the
de-epoxidation state in the antenna subcomplexes of PSII during the
generation and relaxation of qN under varying conditions. Three different
antenna subcomplexes were separated by isoelectric focusing: Lhcb1/2/3,
Lhcb5/6, and the Lhcb4/PSII core. Under all conditions, the highest
de-epoxidation state was detected in Lhcb1/2/3 and Lhcb5/6. The kinetics of
de-epoxidation in these complexes were found to be similar to the formation
of qE. The Lhcb4/PSII core showed the most pronounced differences in the
de-epoxidation state when illumination with low and high light intensities
was compared, correlating roughly with the differences in qI. Furthermore,
the epoxidation kinetics in the Lhcb4/PSII core showed the most pronounced
differences of all subcomplexes when comparing the epoxidation after either
moderate or very strong photoinhibitory preillumination. Our data support
the suggestion that zeaxanthin formation/epoxidation in Lhcb1-3 and Lhcb5/6
may be related to qE, and in Lhcb4 (and/or PSII core) to qI.
