چکیده
In this communication, we report the synthesis, characterization, and electrochemistry of a 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-manganese oxide hybrid. Our results suggest that this compound is a promising model for the manganese cluster together with tyrosine-161 and histidine-190 in photosystem II of plants, algae and cyanobacteria.

A manganese oxide with phenol groups as a promising structural model for water oxidizing complex in Photosystem II: a 'golden fish'.
We describe here the ability of manganese oxide monosheets to aggregate to form layered structures with 4-aminophenol molecules. These aggregated monosheets could be considered as the first step to synthesize a self-assembled layered hybrid of phenol-manganese ions with phenol and manganese(III) and (IV) as exists in the water oxidizing complex of Photosystem II.
متن کاملThermoluminescence evidence for light-induced oxidation of tyrosine and histidine residues in manganese-depleted photosystem II particles.
In the thermoluminescence (TL) glow curve of photosystem II, particles depleted of manganese, a tyrosine modifier, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD) abolishes the TL band appearing around -55 degrees C (TL-55). Addition of a histidine modifier, diethylpyrocarbonate results in the disappearance of the band peaking around -30 degrees C (TL-30). NBD treatment also abolishes the EPR sign...
متن کاملAn engineered polypeptide around nano-sized manganese-calcium oxide: copying plants for water oxidation.
Synthesis of new efficient catalysts inspired by Nature is a key goal in the production of clean fuel. Different compounds based on manganese oxide have been investigated in order to find their water-oxidation activity. Herein, we introduce a novel engineered polypeptide containing tyrosine around nano-sized manganese-calcium oxide, which was shown to be a highly active catalyst toward water ox...
متن کاملMultifrequency pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance study of the S2 state of the photosystem II manganese cluster.
Multifrequency electron spin-echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) spectroscopy is employed to measure the strength of the hyperfine coupling of magnetic nuclei to the paramagnetic (S = 1/2) S2 form of photosystem II (PSII). Previous X-band-frequency ESEEM studies indicated that one or more histidine nitrogens are electronically coupled to the tetranuclear manganese cluster in the S2 state of PSII. ...
متن کاملProximity of the manganese cluster of photosystem II to the redox-active tyrosine YZ.
Electron spin echo electron-nuclear double resonance (ESE-ENDOR) experiments performed on a broad radical electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal observed in photosystem II particles depleted of Ca2+ indicate that this signal arises from the redox-active tyrosine YZ. The tyrosine EPR signal width is increased relative to that observed in a manganese-depleted preparation due to a magnetic i...
