Fig. 15. Parallel increase in the relative amounts of L protein(s) and chlorophyll synthesis during greening of y-1 cells. The amount of L protein(s) is represented as the ratio of optical density of the corresponding peak to peak 7, which does not change during the greening, as calculated from densitometer tracings of electrophoretograms of membrane proteins. (O----O), L proteins in light (A---A), chlorophyll in light ( --- ), L proteins in dark (A---A), chlorophyll in dark. (For experimental details, see ref. 70.)...

Fig. 13. Changes in fatty acid composition and ratio of chlorophyll to polyunsaturated acids during greening process of C. reinhardi y-1 cells. (A) Fatty acids whose synthesis is unaffected by light. (B) Chlorophyll (ch) and fatty acids whose synthesis is affected by light. (C) Ratio of chlorophyll to polyunsaturated fatty acids (18 2 + 18 3) as compared with saturated acid (18 1). Open symbols, incubation in the light filled symbols, incubation in the dark. (For experimental details see ref. 69.)...

Fig. 20. Changes in cytochrome / content and photooxidation during greening of C. reinhardi y-1 cells. (A) Increase in chlorophyll ( ), cytochrome/content (A) and its photooxidation (O). (B) Ratio of cytochrome/ to chlorophyll (A) Ratio of photoactive cytochrome/to total cytochrome/content ( ), and ratio of photoactive cytochrome/to chlorophyll content ( ). (For experimental details see ref. 73.)...
