Evidence for localisation of accumulated chlorophyll cation on the D1-accessory chlorophyll in the reaction centre of Photosystem II

Absorption and circular dichroism spectra of Photosystem II (PS II) reaction centres (RC) were studied and compared with spectra calculated on the basis of point-dipole approximation. Chlorophyll cation was accumulated during a light treatment of PS II RC in the presence of artificial electron accep...

Zusammenfassung:Absorption and circular dichroism spectra of Photosystem II (PS II) reaction centres (RC) were studied and compared with spectra calculated on the basis of point-dipole approximation. Chlorophyll cation was accumulated during a light treatment of PS II RC in the presence of artificial electron acceptor silicomolybdate. Light-induced difference spectra and their calculated counterparts revealed the location of accumulated cation at the accessory chlorophyll of the D1 protein subunit.
