The oxygen-evolving manganese cluster (OEC) of photosynthesis is oxidised by the photochemically generated primary oxidant (P(+*)(680)) of photosystem II via a tyrosine residue (Y(Z), Tyr161 on the D1 subunit of Synechocystis sp. PCC6803). The redox span between these components is rather small and probably tuned by protonic equilibria. The very efficient electron transfer from Y(Z) to P(+*)(68...
A catalytic manganese (Mn) cluster is required for the oxidation of water in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII) in plants. Despite this essential role of Mn in generating the electrons driving photosynthesis, limited information is available on how Mn deficiency affects PSII functionality. We have here used parameters derived from measurements of fluorescence induction k...
Light damages photosynthetic machinery, primarily photosystem II (PSII), and it results in photoinhibition. A new photodamage model, the two-step photodamage model, suggests that photodamage to PSII initially occurs at the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) by light energy absorbed by manganese and that the PSII reaction center is subsequently damaged by light energy absorbed by photosynthetic pigme...
Photoinhibition is light-induced inactivation of PSII. Hypotheses about the photoreceptor(s) of photoinhibition include the Chl antenna of PSII, manganese of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC), uncoupled Chl and iron-sulfur centres. We measured the action spectrum of photoinhibition in vivo from wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana L. and from the npq1-2 and npq4-1 mutants defective in non-photochemic...
Full geometry optimizations of several inorganic model clusters, CaMn(4)O(4)XYZ(H(2)O)(2) (X, Y, Z = H(2)O, OH(-) or O(2-)), by the use of the B3LYP hybrid density functional theory (DFT) have been performed to illuminate plausible molecular structures of the catalytic site for water oxidation in the S(0), S(1), S(2) and S(3) states of the Kok cycle for the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of phot...
The low-temperature S2-state EPR signal at g = 4 from the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of spinach Photosystem-II-enriched membranes is examined at three frequencies, 4 GHz (S-band), 9 GHz (X-band) and 16 GHz (P-band). While no hyperfine structure is observed at 4 GHz, the signal shows little narrowing and may mask underlying hyperfine structure. At 16 GHz, the signal shows g-anisotropy and a s...
Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) is generally considered to negatively impact the photosynthetic apparatus and plant growth. UV-B damages PSII but does not directly influence PSI. However, PSI and PSII successively drive photosynthetic electron transfer, therefore, the interaction between these systems is unavoidable. So we speculated that UV-B could indirectly affect PSI under chilling-light con...
18 O isotope exchange measurements of photosystem II (PSII) in thylakoids from wild-type and mutant Synechocystis have been performed to investigate binding of substrate water to the high-affinity Mn4 site in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). The mutants investigated were D1-D170H, a mutation of a direct ligand to the Mn4 ion, and D1-D61N, a mutation in the second coordination sphere. The subs...
Different approaches have been explored to increase the water oxidation activity of nanostructured hematite (α-Fe2O3) photoanodes, including doping with various elements, surface functionalization with both oxygen evolving catalysts (OEC) and functional overlayers and, more recently, the introduction of ultrathin oxide underlayers as tunneling back contacts. Inspired by this latter strategy, we...
In photosynthesis, photosystem II (PSII) is the multi-subunit membrane protein complex that catalyzes photo-oxidation of water into dioxygen through the oxygen evolving complex (OEC). To understand the water oxidation reaction, it is important to get structural information about the transient and intermediate states of the OEC in the dimeric PSII core complex (dPSIIcc). In recent times, femtose...
