Quality control of Photosystem II: reversible and irreversible protein aggregation decides the fate of Photosystem II under excessive illumination

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
In response to excessive light, the thylakoid membranes of higher plant chloroplasts show dynamic changes including the degradation and reassembly of proteins, a change in the distribution of proteins, and large-scale structural changes such as ...

High-resolution model of Arabidopsis Photosystem II reveals the structural consequences of digitonin-extraction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In higher plants, the photosynthetic process is performed and regulated by Photosystem II (PSII). Arabidopsis thaliana was the first higher plant with a fully sequenced genome, conferring it the status of a model organism; nonetheless, a high-resolution ...

Picosecond fluorescence of intact and dissolved PSI-LHCI crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Over the last years many crystal structures of photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes have been determined, and used extensively to model spectroscopic results obtained on the same proteins in solution. However, the crystal structure is not necessarily

In Silico Analysis of Relationship between Proteins from Plastid Genome of Red Alga Palmaria sp. (Japan) and Angiotensin I Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Peptides

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2019
Plastid proteins are one of the main components in red algae. In order to clarify the angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides from red alga Palmaria sp. (Japan), we determined the plastid genome sequence.

Structural and functional characterisation of Photosystem II from two His-tagged transplastomic strains of Nicotiana tabacum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Photosystem II (PSII) is a polypeptide-cofactor complex organised as a homodimeric multisubunit protein embedded in the thylakoid membrane. PSII monomers are heterooligomers related to each other by a pseudo-twofold axis perpendicular to the membrane ...

The role of lipids in photosystem II

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2012
The thylakoid membranes of photosynthetic organisms, which are the sites of oxygenic photosynthesis, are composed of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG), sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (SQDG), and phosphatidylglycerol (PG).

Reduced model of photosystem II and its use to evaluate the photosynthetic apparatus characteristics according to the fluorescence induction curves [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2012
The approach for the analysis of some large-scale biological systems, on the base of quasiequilibrium stages is proposed. The approach allows us to reduce the detailed large-scaled models and obtain the simplified model with an analytical solution.

Kinetic models of photosystem II should accommodate the effect of donor side quenching on variable chlorophyll a fluorescence in the microseconds time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Quantitative data on laser flash-induced variable fluorescence in the 100 ns to 1 ms time range (Belyaeva et al. in Photosynth Res 98:105–119, 2008) confirming those of others (Steffen et al.

Tyrosyl radicals in Photosystem II

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2004
In PSII, there are two redox-active tyrosines, D and Z, with different midpoint potentials and different reduction kinetics. The factors responsible for these functional differences have not yet been elucidated. Recent model compound studies of tyrosinate and of tyrosine-containing dipeptides have demonstrated that perturbations of the amino and amide ...

Molecular Evolution of Far-Red Light-Acclimated Photosystem II

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Cyanobacteria are major contributors to global carbon fixation and primarily use visible light (400−700 nm) to drive oxygenic photosynthesis. When shifted into environments where visible light is attenuated, a small, but highly diverse and widespread ...
