Abstract
ATP synthesis and phosphorylating (coupled) electron flow of freshly l ysed pea chloroplasts were inhibited by piquerol A and diacetyl piquer ol, the latter being more active. H+-uptake, basal and uncoupled elect ron transport were not affected by either compound, indicating that th ey act as inhibitors of photophosphorylation at the H+-ATPase complex.
