The effect of two concentrations of cobalt (Co(2+)) on photosynthetic activity and antioxidative response in Lemna minor L. were assessed 24, 48 and 72h after the start of the exposure. Higher concentration of cobalt (1mM) induced growth inhibition while lower concentration (0.01mM) increased photosynthetic pigments content. Analysis of chlorophyll a fluorescence transients revealed high sensit...
Photosystem II (PSII) oxidizes water to produce oxygen through a four-step photocatalytic cycle. Understanding PSII structure-function relations is important for the development of biomimetic photocatalytic systems. The quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) analysis of substrate water binding to the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) has suggested a rearrangement of water ligands in a carous...
In one of the final stages of cyanobacterial Photosystem II (PS II) assembly, binding of up to four extrinsic proteins to PS II stabilizes the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Growth of cyanobacterial mutants deficient in certain combinations of these thylakoid-lumen-associated polypeptides is sensitive to changes in environmental pH, despite the physical separation of the membrane-embedded PS II...
The oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of Photosystem II (PSII) is an oxomanganese complex that catalyzes water-splitting into O2, protons and electrons. Recent breakthroughs in X-ray crystallography have resolved the cuboidal OEC structure at 1.9 Å resolution, stimulating significant interest in studies of structure/function relations. This article summarizes recent advances on studies of the OEC a...
The laboratory synthesis of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II has been the objective of synthetic chemists since the early 1970s. However, the absence of structural information on the OEC has hampered these efforts. Crystallographic reports on photosystem II that have been appearing at ever-improving resolution over the past ten years have finally provided invaluable structura...
The oxygen equilibrium curve (OEC) for hemoglobin, which is usually expressed as a S vs. P plot, was expressed by normalizing P by Pdmax, where S is oxygen saturation, P is partial pressure of oxygen, and Pdmax is P at which the slope of the usual OEC is maximized. The maximal slope of normalized OEC gives Pdmax.S'max, where S'max is the maximal slope of the usual OEC, a measure for the oxygen ...
The annual production of 260 Gtonnes of oxygen, during the process of photosynthesis, sustains life on earth. Oxygen is produced in the thylakoid membranes of green-plant chloroplasts and the internal membranes of cyanobacteria by photocatalytic water oxidation at the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII). Recent breakthroughs in X-ray crystallography and advances in quantum me...
The oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II contains a Mn(4)CaO(n) catalytic site, in which reactivity of bridging oxidos is fundamental to OEC function. We synthesized structurally relevant cuboidal Mn(3)MO(n) complexes (M = Mn, Ca, Sc; n = 3,4) to enable mechanistic studies of reactivity and incorporation of μ(3)-oxido moieties. We found that Mn(IV)(3)CaO(4) and Mn(IV)(3)ScO(4) were u...
Pulse EPR and 55Mn-ENDOR (electron nuclear double resonance) experiments at 34 GHz (Q-band) were performed on the S2 state of the OEC (oxygen-evolving complex) in PSII (Photosystem II) from Thermosynechococcus elongatus. The ENDOR spectra are discussed with respect to earlier data obtained from X- (9 GHz) and Q-band experiments on PSII preparations from spinach with and without the addition of ...
The S0 → S1 transition of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II is one of the least understood steps in the Kok cycle of water splitting. We introduce a quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) model of the S0 state that is consistent with extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction data. In conjunction with the QM/MM model of the S1 state, we ...
