A cell-free system exhibiting both photophosphorylation (P/2e= 1) and oxidative phosphoryltion (P/O up to 0.8) is described for the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis. NADH ant NADPH were found to be equally effective as electron donors for oxidative phosphorylation. Low concentrations of UHDBT, an inhibitor of the cytochrome b/c complex of mitochondria ant loroplasts, were found to inhibit photosystem-II electron transport reactions, but did not affet the cytochrome b6/f-complex of Anabaena. The inhibition by myxothiazol, antimycin and heptyihydroxyquinoline corroborates the hypothesis that both respiration and photosynthesis share the cytochrome b6/f-complex.
