Intracellular Location of Phytochrome

  • Chapter
Book cover Trends in Photobiology

Abstract

Attempts to elucidate the molecular mechanism of phytochrome action must reconcile two superficially contradictory sets of data: (a) Physiological studies where rapid, phytochrome-mediated changes in membrane properties have led to the hypothesis that the pigment directly modifies cellular membrane function as its primary action upon photoconversion to pfp.1,2,3,4 and (b) Biochemical and immunocytochemical studies where most of the phytochrome is, respec tively, extractable as a water soluble protein under conventional conditions and apparently uniformly distributed in the cytosol in situ -at least in unirradiated, etiolated tissue.5
