Abstract

1. 1. A water-soluble, photosensitive chlorophyll protein was obtained from the leaves of Chenopodium album. 2. 2. The substance, purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and column chromatography, showed a single-peaked sedimentation pattern on ultracentrifugal analysis. 3. 3. The native chlorophyll protein (prepared in the dark) showed absorption bands at 277, 429 and 667 mμ. Irradiation caused a marked change of the spectrum. New peaks appeared at 362, 399, 567 and 743 mμ. 4. 4. The chlorophyll protein contained chlorophylls a and b. The irradiated protein had three additional pigments which were not found in the native one.
