Figure 1. Hydrogenases (H₂ases) were genetically attached to photosystem (PS)I to intercept electrons for H₂
production. H₂ production was light driven both in the engineered cyanobacterial strain (PsaD-HoxYH) as well as in the
engineered algal strain (H1). The cyanobacterial NiFe-H₂ase HoxYH was fused to PSI subunit PsaD, whereas the algal
FeFe-H₂ase HydA2 was inserted into the PSI subunit PsaC. H₂ production was partly driven by water oxidation at PSII as
desired. In addition, glucose provided electrons for cyanobacterial photosynthetic H₂ production in the mutant strain. If
acetate did likewise contribute to photoH₂ production in H1 is unclear, as low PSI-HydA2 levels in relation to PSII kept
the PQ pool reduced in this mutant.
