EFFECT OF QUINONE ON THE LIGHT-INDUCED CAPACITY OF CARBON DIOXIDE-FIXATION IN GREEN ALGAE

Abstract
Addition of quinone promptly suppresses Cl4O2 incorporation in light of dark cells of Chlorella ellipsoidea (cf. Jour. Biochem. (Tokyo), 42, 221 (1955)). The inhibitory effect of quinone reversibly disappears in 10-20 min. with quinone below 10-4.3 [image] but above 10-4.0 m quinone gives an irreversible inhibitory effect.
