Inorganic Carbon Acquisition

The role of the chloroplast in algal inorganic carbon acquisition is reviewed. Unicellular green algae possess the ability to grow photoautotrophically at very low CO2 concentrations. The presence of a CO2-concentrating system that elevates the CO2 level within the cell can account for the algae's ability to reduce photorespiration and grow under these conditions. The mechanism of this inorganic carbon transport is unclear at present, although both the plasmalemma and the chloroplast have been implicated in this process. Three aspects of the role of the chloroplast in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii inorganic carbon uptake are discussed in this review. First, the present models of inorganic carbon uptake are summarized. Second, the purity and integrity of intact chloroplast preparations are discussed. Third, an evaluation of the published data on inorganic carbon uptake by isolated intact chloroplasts is presented. Key words: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, carbonic anhydrase, chloroplast, active CO2 uptake.

Inorganic Carbon Acquisition

In the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, a form of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase that is localized outside of the plasma membrane is an inducible component of a system that is involved in inorganic carbon acquisition and concentration from the growth medium. This article contains a review and analysis of the current literature regarding the extracellular carbonic anhydrase from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and presents some new studies on its extracellular localization, physiological role in inorganic carbon acquisition, and some of the structural and catalytic properties of the enzyme. Key words: carbonic anhydrase, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, inorganic carbon utilization.
