Cyclic Photophosphorylation Definition:
Formation of ATP when light energy is used to move electrons cyclically through an electron transport chain during photosynthesis.
Prescott's Microbiology 9th Edition by Joanne Willey, Linda Sherwood, Christopher J. Woolverton
Cyclic Photophosphorylation Notes:
Cyclic Photophosphorylation is the process of the synthesis of ATP, coupled with electron transport. This cycle is activated by Photosystem I, therefore it can proceed in long wavelength light (03BB 2265 700 nm). Moreover, the process is not affected by the specific inhibitors of the Photosystem II, like DCMU, CMU and orthophenanthroline.
