The expression of the cytM gene, which encodes cytochrome cM in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, is induced under stress conditions such as low temperature. Results of spectrophotometric studies revealed that cytochrome cM was oxidized by light absorbed by photosystem I in cells that had acclimatized to a low temperature. However, no similar light‐induced oxidation of cytochrome cM
