The Antarctic halophyte, &lt;i&gt;C. priscuii UWO241&lt;/i&gt; (UWO241), possesses constitutive high CEF rates and a stable PSI-supercomplex as a consequence of adaptation to permanent low temperatures and high salinity. To understand whether CEF represents a broader acclimation strategy to short- and long-term stress, we compared high salt acclimation between the halotolerant UWO241, the salt-sensitive model, &lt;i&gt;C. reinhardtii&lt;/i&gt;, and a moderately halotolerant Antarctic green alga, &lt;i&gt;C.&lt;/i&gt; sp. ICE-MDV (ICE-MDV). CEF was activated under high salt and associated with increased non-photochemical quenching in all three &lt;i&gt;Chlamydomonas&lt;/i&gt; species. Furthermore, high salt-acclimated cells of either strain formed a PSI-supercomplex, while state transition capacity was attenuated. How the CEF-associated PSI-supercomplex interferes with state transition response is not yet known. We present a model for interaction between PSI-supercomplex formation, state transitions, and the important role of CEF for survival during long-term exposure to high salt.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raymond, James A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rachael M.

Recently, &lt;em&gt;Chlamydomonas reinhardtii&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Dunaliella salina&lt;/em&gt; were shown to make glycerol with an unusual bidomain enzyme, which appears to be unique to algae, that contains a phosphoserine phosphatase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Here we report that two psychrophilic species of &lt;em&gt;Chlamydomonas&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;em&gt;C.&lt;/em&gt; spp. UWO241 and ICE-MDV) from Lake Bonney, Antarctica also produce high levels of glycerol to survive in the lake&amp;rsquo;s saline waters. Glycerol concentration increased linearly with salinity and at 1.3 M NaCl, exceeded 400 mM in &lt;em&gt;C.&lt;/em&gt; sp. UWO241, the more salt-tolerant strain. We also show that both species expressed several isoforms of the bidomain enzyme. An analysis of one of the isoforms of &lt;em&gt;C.&lt;/em&gt; sp. UWO241 showed that it was strongly upregulated by NaCl and is thus the likely source of glycerol. These results reveal another adaptation of the Lake Bonney &lt;em&gt;Chlamydomonas&lt;/em&gt; species that allow them to survive in an extreme polar environment.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
