Abstract
Nitrite reduction in either whole, isolated spinach chloroplasts (Spinacia oleracea L.) or in reconstituted spinach chloroplasts is stimulated by a short period of photosynthetic CO(2) fixation in the light prior to nitrite addition. With reconstituted chloroplasts, a similar stimulation can be obtained in nitrite reduction without CO(2) fixation by the addition of dihydroxyacetone phosphate or fructose 6-phosphate. Specific intermediate metabolites of the photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle may have a regulatory role in nitrite reduction in chloroplasts in the light.
