The study investigated the influence of the xanthophyll cycle pigments DIADINOXANTHIN (cas 18457-54-0) (DD) and diatoxanthin (Dt) on the spectroscopic characteristics, structure and protein composition of isolated fucoxanthin chlorophyll protein (FCP) complexes of the pennate diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. 77 K fluorescence emission spectra revealed that Dt-containing FCP complexes showed a characteristic long wavelength fluorescence emission at 700 nm at a pH-value of 5 whereas DD-enriched FCPs retained the typical 680 nm fluorescence emission maximum of isolated FCPs. The 700 nm emission in Dt-containing FCPs indicates an aggregation of antenna complexes and is a typical feature of the quenching site Q1 in recent models for non-photochemical fluorescence quenching (NPQ). A comparable long-wavelength fluorescence emission was found in FCP complexes prepared with either triton X-100 or n-dodecyl β-D-maltoside as detergent. A treatment of the FCP complexes at low pH-values in the presence of a high concentration of Mg2+ ions showed that the extent of FCP aggregation which leads to the 700 nm fluorescence emission is different from the macro-aggregation of antenna complexes in higher plants. Protein analyses by mass spectrometry showed that the protein composition of the DD- and Dt-enriched FCP complexes was comparable. However, the Lhcf6 and Lhcr1 polypeptides were only found in Dt-enriched FCPs isolated with dodecyl maltoside whereas the Lhcf17 protein was only detected in DD-enriched FCPs prepared with triton. With respect to low pH-induced antenna aggregation it is important that the Lhcx1 protein was found in both DD- and Dt-enriched FCPs, albeit with only two peptides with confident scores.
