The interrelations between thylakoid polypeptide components and Mg 2+ induced Chl a fluorescence and thylakoid surface charge changes were investigated in Zostera marina chloroplasts treated with Ca 2+ and trypsin. It was observed that:1. The increase of Mg 2+ induced PSⅡ fluorescence intensity was closely related to the decrease of Mg 2+ induced surface charge density of the thylakoid membrane in the normal chloroplast; 2. Removal of the 32~34 kD polypeptides of the thylakoid surface by Ca 2+ extraction of the chloroplast did not affect the Mg 2+ induced phenomena; 3. If the Ca 2+ treated chloroplast was further digested by trypsin to remove the 26 kD polypeptide of the membrane surface, the Mg 2+ induced phenomena disappeared completely. These results clearly indicated that the 26 kD polypeptide of thylakoid surface is the specific acting site of the cation that induced these two correlated phenomena in the chloroplast from Zostera marina. The mechanism on the regulating effect of the cation on excitation energy distribution between PSⅡ and PSⅠ was discussed.
