[Effect of IAA on the photophosphorylation of pea isolated chloroplasts]

Effect of IAA (10(-10)-10(-3) M) on photophosphorylation, NADP reduction and the oxygen exchange is investigated. It is shown that low concentrations of IAA (10(-10)-10(-7) M) increase the photophosphorylation reaction and the flow of electrones to NADP under the phosphorylation conditions in the chloroplasts, and their effect on the O2 exchange is not the same in different types of photophosphorylation. It is supposed that the effect of IAA on the photophosphorylation is connected with H292 metabolism in chloroplasts and with catalase and peroxidase functions.
