There is a growing interest in the use of microbial fermentation for the generation of high-demand, high-purity chemicals using cheap feedstocks in an environmentally friendly manner. One example explored here is the production of isoprene (C 5 H 8 )

It is now quite well accepted that charge separation in PS2 reaction centers starts predominantly from the accessory chlorophyll BA and not from the special pair P680. To identify spectral signatures of BA, and to further clarify the process of prima

The recent availability of X-ray crystallographic structures of Photosystem II (PSII) together with refined steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopic analyses of site-directed mutants, are leading to a more detailed understanding of the function o

The Ala344 residue of the D1 protein has been identified as a crucial residue of the catalytic cluster of the water-oxidizing complex, however, its function has not been fully clarified. Here we have used thermoluminescence and flash-induced chloroph

In photosystem I, oxidation of reduced acceptor A1– through iron-sulfur cluster FX is biphasic with half-times of ∼5–30 ns (“fast” phase) and ∼150–300 ns (“slow” phase). Whether these biphasic kinetics reflect unidirectional electro
