Planteome: Term Details for "photosynthesis, light reaction" (GO:0019684)

Accession: GO:0019684
Name: photosynthesis, light reaction
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: photolysis
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The light reactions of photosynthesis, which take place in photosystems II and I. Light energy is harvested and used to power the transfer of electrons among a series of electron donors and acceptors. The final electron acceptor is NADP+, which is reduced to NADPH. NADPH generated from light reactions is used in sugar synthesis in dark reactions. Light reactions also generate a proton motive force across the thylakoid membrane, and the proton gradient is used to synthesize ATP. There are two chemical reactions involved in the light reactions: water oxidation in photosystem II, and NADP reduction in photosystem I. Source: http://www.arabidopsis.org
