The influence of illumination history of native bacterial reaction centers (BRCs) on the ability of binding and photo-induced oxidation of manganous ions was investigated in the pH range between 8.0 and 9.4. Binding of manganous ions to a buried site required 6 to 11-fold longer incubation periods, depending on the pH, in dark-adapted BRCs than in BRCs that were previously illuminated prior to manganese binding. The intrinsic electron transfer from the bound manganese ion to the photo-oxidized primary electron donor was found to be limited by a 2 to 5-fold slower precursor conformational step in the dark-adapted samples for the same pH range. The conformational gating could be eliminated by photoactivation, namely if the BRCs were illuminated prior to binding. Unlike in Photosystem II, photoactivation in BRCs did not involve cluster assembly. Photoactivation with manganese already bound was only possible at elevated detergent concentration. In addition, also exclusively in dark-adapted BRCs, a marked breaking point in the Arrhenius-plot was discovered around 15 °C at pH 9.4 indicating a change in the reaction mechanism, most likely caused by the change of orientation of the 2-acetyl group of the inactive bacteriochlorophyll monomer located near the manganese binding site. |
