A novel chlorophyll protein complex in the repair cycle of photosystem II [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019 Significance Photosystem II (PSII) converts sunlight into chemical energy, powering nearly all life on Earth. The efficiency of this process is maximized under various environmental conditions by a frequent repair and reassembly cycle that follows ...

Advances in the Understanding of the Lifecycle of Photosystem II
Microorganisms, 2022 Photosystem II is a light-driven water-plastoquinone oxidoreductase present in cyanobacteria, algae and plants. It produces molecular oxygen and protons to drive ATP synthesis, fueling life on Earth.

Dynamics of photosystem II: a proteomic approach to thylakoid protein complexes [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2004 Oxygenic photosynthesis produces various radicals and active oxygen species with harmful effects on photosystem II (PSII). Such photodamage occurs at all light intensities. Damaged PSII centres, however, do not usually accumulate in the thylakoid membrane due to a rapid and efficient repair mechanism.

Identification and roles of Photosystem II assembly, stability, and repair factors in Arabidopsis
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Photosystem II (PSII) is a multi-component pigment-protein complex that is responsible for water splitting, oxygen evolution, and plastoquinone reduction.

Quality control of photosystem II: lipid peroxidation accelerates photoinhibition under excessive illumination. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Environmental stresses lower the efficiency of photosynthesis and sometimes cause irreversible damage to plant functions. When spinach thylakoids and Photosystem II membranes were illuminated with excessive visible light (100-1,000 µmol photons m(-1) s ...

Truncated recombinant light harvesting complex II proteins are substrates for a protein kinase associated with photosystem II core complexes [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1998 Previous studies directed towards understanding phosphorylation of the chlorophyll a/b binding proteins comprising light harvesting complex II (LHC II) have concentrated on a single phosphorylation site located close to the N‐terminus of the mature proteins.
