چکیده

A study of the hydrogen hyperfine couplings of the Mn-cluster of the oxygen-evolving complex of Photosystem II in the S(2) state of the Kok cycle by means of hyperfine sublevel correlation spectroscopy was achieved. Features corresponding to hyperfine interaction of at least two hydrogen nuclei were detected. Combining our results with previous ENDOR data, hyperfine constants were determined, and by using a model for the structure and electronic spin state of the Mn-cluster, relevant structural information of the S(2) state was obtained. This new information can be used for improving our knowledge about the structure and function of the Mn-cluster during light-driven water oxidation reaction in oxygenic photosynthetic organisms.

Two-dimensional (14)N HYSCORE spectroscopy of the coordination geometry of ligands in dimanganese di-μ-oxo mimics of the oxygen evolving complex of photosystem II.

We use two-dimensional hyperfine sublevel correlation (HYSCORE) spectroscopy to investigate the coordination geometry of the nitrogen ligands of biomimetic models of the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II. In the 2D HYSCORE spectroscopy study, [(bpy)2Mn(III)(μ-O)2Mn(IV)(bpy)2](ClO4)3 (bpy, 2,2'-bipyridine) (1) and [H2O(terpy)Mn(III)(μ-O)2Mn(IV)(terpy)OH2](NO3)3 (terpy = 2,2':6',2″-terpyr...

Is Mn-Bound Substrate Water Protonated in the S2 State of Photosystem II?

In spite of great progress in resolving the geometric structure of the water-splitting Mn(4)O(x)Ca cluster in photosystem II, the binding sites and modes of the two substrate water molecules are still insufficiently characterized. While time-resolved membrane-inlet mass spectrometry measurements indicate that both substrate water molecules are bound to the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) in the S...

Electronic structure of the oxygen evolving complex in photosystem II, as revealed by 55Mn Davies ENDOR studies at 2.5 K.

We report the first (55)Mn pulsed ENDOR studies on the S2 state multiline spin ½ centre of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) in Photosystem II (PS II), at temperatures below 4.2 K. These were performed on highly active samples of spinach PS II core complexes, developed previously in our laboratories for photosystem spectroscopic use, at temperatures down to 2.5 K. Under these conditions, relaxa...

Simulation of the S2 state multiline electron paramagnetic resonance signal of photosystem II: a multifrequency approach.

The S2 state electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) multiline signal of Photosystem II has been simulated at Q-band (35 Ghz), X-band (9 GHz) and S-band (4 GHz) frequencies. The model used for the simulation assumes that the signal arises from an essentially magnetically isolated MnIII-MnIV dimer, with a ground state electronic spin ST = 1/2. The spectra are generated from exact numerical solutio...

Multifrequency EPR studies of manganese catalases provide a complete description of proteinaceous nitrogen coordination.

Pulse electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is employed at two very different excitation frequencies, 9.77 and 30.67 GHz, in the study of the nitrogen coordination environment of the Mn(III)Mn(IV) state of the dimanganese-containing catalases from Lactobacillus plantarum and Thermus thermophilus. Consistent with previous studies, the lower-frequency results reveal one unique histid...
