Two different charge separation pathways in photosystem II.
Charge separation is an essential step in the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy in photosynthesis. To investigate this process, we performed transient absorption experiments at 77 K with various excitation conditions on the isolated Photosystem II reaction center preparations from spinach. The results have been analyzed by global and target analysis and demonstrate that at least t...
متن کاملPhotophosphorylation Associated with Photosystem II: IV. KINETIC ANALYSES OF PHOTOSYSTEM II CYCLIC PHOTOPHOSPHORYLATION ACTIVITY: EVIDENCE FOR TWO CYCLIC REACTIONS.
Photosystem II-dependent cyclic photophosphorylation activity produced by addition of p-phenylenediamines to KCN-Hg-NH(2)OH-inhibited chloroplasts is the product of two separate reactions when a proton/electron donor is the catalyst. The activity observed with an electron donor as catalyst consists of a single reaction. One of the cyclic reactions, evoked by low (</=40 micromolar) concentration...
متن کاملPhotosystem II
Photosystem II is a specialized protein complex that uses light energy to oxidize water, resulting in the release of molecular oxygen into the atmosphere, and to reduce plastoquinone, which is released into the hydrophobic core of the photosynthetic membrane. All oxygenic photosynthetic organisms, which include plants, algae and some bacteria, depend on photosystem II to extract electrons from ...
متن کاملPlants switch photosystem at high temperature to protect photosystem II
Plants are often exposed to temperatures of around 40 °C. These temperatures can cause serious damage to photosystems, yet plants can survive with minimum damage. Here, we show that plants switch photosystem to protect photosystem II (PSII) at 40 °C. Using wheat and Arabidopsis seedlings, we investigated the mechanisms of heat-derived damage in the dark and avoidance of damage in the light. Hea...
متن کاملCyanobacterial Acclimation to Photosystem I or Photosystem II Light.
The organization and function of the photochemical apparatus of Synechococcus 6301 was investigated in cells grown under yellow and red light regimes. Broadband yellow illumination is absorbed preferentially by the phycobilisome (PBS) whereas red light is absorbed primarily by the chlorophyll (Chl) pigment beds. Since PBSs are associated exclusively with photosystem II (PSII) and most of the Ch...
