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

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.

Digalactosyl-diacylglycerol-deficiency lowers the thermal stability of thylakoid membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We investigated the effects of digalactosyl-diacylglycerol (DGDG) on the organization and thermal stability of thylakoid membranes, using wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana and the DGDG-deficient mutant, dgd1. Circular-dichroism measurements reveal that DGDG-

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Acyl lipids in the supramolecular chlorophyll-protein complexes of photosystems - isolation artifacts or integral components regulating their structure and functions?

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The precise nature of interactions between the chloropnyll-protein complexes related to photosystem I or photosystem II and the acyl lipids in the thylakoid membranes is not yet fully elucidated.

The extrinsic proteins of Photosystem II

open access: yesPhotosynthesis Research, 2007
Years of genetic, biochemical, and structural work have provided a number of insights into the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of Photosystem II (PSII) for a variety of photosynthetic organisms. However, questions still remain about the functions and interactions among the various subunits that make up the OEC.

A Personal Perspective on Metalloprotein Structure and the Future of Macromolecular X‐Ray Crystallography

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
While X‐ray crystallography has been the primary method for determining the structures of metalloproteins, cryoEM has taken over this role, illustrated by [4Fe4S]‐cluster containing proteins deposited in the Protein Data Bank. What will be the role for X‐ray crystallography as cryoEM and machine learning methods dominate the initial structural analysis?

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

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 ...

Picosecond fluorescence of intact and dissolved PSI-LHCI crystals

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

Multiple impacts of loss of plastidic phosphatidylglycerol biosynthesis on photosynthesis during seedling growth of Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is the only major phospholipid in the thylakoid membrane in cyanobacteria and plant chloroplasts. Although PG accounts only for ~10% of total thylakoid lipids, it plays indispensable roles in oxygenic photosynthesis. In contrast

From Mn(II)3 to Mn(IV)3: Controlled Multielectron Oxidation and Hydrocarbon Oxygenation Within a 7‐Dipy Trinuclear Scaffold

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
A trinuclear manganese complex supported by the 7‐Dipy scaffold undergoes controlled multielectron oxidation from Mn(II)3 to high‐valent Mn(IV)3 states. Spectroscopic signatures, including 16‐line and geff ≈ 5 EPR features, reveal stepwise redox accumulation. The oxidized Mn3 cluster mediates efficient oxygen‐atom transfer to strong CH bonds, enabling
