| Popis: | The association of water with the Mn of the water oxidizing complex was investigated using H2(17)O- and 2H2O-reconstituted lyophilized photosystem II particles. The pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technique of electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) was used to investigate the interaction of the magnetic 2H and 17O nuclei with the paramagnetic S2 state of the Mn complex and other photosystem II components. ESEEM offers a much more specific and sensitive detection of this type of interaction than continuous wave (CW) EPR. Unlike earlier reports using CW EPR, these experiments did not detect any interaction of water with the multiline EPR signal from the S2 state of the Mn complex. No signals indicating specific interaction of either H or O with the multiline signal were detected. Signals due to 2H and 17O were detected only at the Larmour frequency, indicating nonspecific "distant ENDOR" effects. A weak interaction with 17O was detected both in S1, when the Mn is EPR silent, and in S2, but only on the high-field side of g = 2. This interaction may be with the Rieske iron-sulfur center in the cytochrome b6f complex. The results were the same whether the multiline signal was generated by 200 K illumination of dark-frozen samples, or by room temperature illumination in the presence of the inhibitor 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU). Illumination at room temperature in the presence of an electron acceptor to allow multiple turnovers of the system with cycling of the S states did not result in the appearance of any new interactions. These results appear to exclude close (less than 6 A) binding of water to the Mn center giving rise to the multiline signal, and also to exclude mechanisms in which water oxidation involves the breaking and re-formation of the mu-oxo bridges of the Mn complex. They cannot, however, exclude models in which water binding to the manganese complex and direct oxidation by the manganese complex occur in the higher S states, or are catalyzed by one bis(mu-oxo) Mn dimer while oxidizing equivalents are accumulated in the S2 state by a second bis(mu-oxo) Mn dimer. |
