An EPR and ENDOR Spectroscopic Investigation of the Ca2+-Depleted Oxygen-Evolving Complex of Photosystem II
Multifrequency EPR and 55Mn ENDOR spectroscopy were used to characterize the S2 ′ state of the Ca2+- depleted oxygen-evolving complex. The 55Mn ENDOR spectrum of the S2 ′ state is ...

Structure of the Photosynthetic Mn4Ca Cluster Using X-ray Spectroscopy
Single crystals of Photosystem II (PSII) isolated from thermophilic cyanobacteria have been studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) with resolutions between 3 and 3.8 Å (Ferreira et al. 2004; Loll et al. 2005). The...

Effects of Chloride/Bromide Substitution on Substrate Water Exchange Rates in Photosystem II
The role of chloride in photosynthetic water oxidation is still under discussion since both its precise function and possible binding site are unresolved. In the present study the effects of Cl− on substrate wate...

Oxygen Evolving Reactions by Synthetic Manganese Complexes
Four manganese complexes were screened for O2 formation under coherent experimental conditions. We identified several new oxygen evolving reactions and in one case 18O labelling with the expected isotope ratio in...

Formate-Induced Release of Carbon Dioxide/ Hydrogencarbonate from Photosystem II
Using Membrane-Inlet Mass Spectrometry (Mims) We Confirm That Injections Of High Concentrations (100 Mm Final Concentration) Of Formate Into The Psii Samples Induce A Slow Release Of Carbon Dioxide/Hydrogencar...

Electronic Structure and Oxidation State Changes in the Mn4Ca Cluster of Photosystem II
Oxygen-evolving complex (Mn4Ca cluster) of Photosystem II cycles through five intermediate states (Si-states, i = 0–4) before a molecule of dioxygen is released. During the Sstate transitions, electrons are extra...
