Inhibition of Photosynthesis by Oxygen in Isolated Spinach Chloroplasts 12

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The inhibition of photosynthetic CO2 fixation by O2, commonly referred to as the Warburg effect, was examined in isolated intact spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplasts. The major characteristics of this effect in isolated chloroplasts are rapid reversibility when O2 is replaced by N2, an increased inhibition by O2 at low concentrations of CO2 and a decreased effect of O2 with increased concentrations of CO2.
