Photosystem II or PS II is the membrane-embedded-protein-complex, consisting of more than 20 subunits and around 100 cofactors. The light is absorbed by the pigments such as carotenoids, chlorophyll, and phycobilin in the region known as antennae and further this excited energy is transferred to the reaction center.

Photosystem II (PSII) is a membrane protein complex which functions to catalyze light-induced water oxidation in oxygenic photosynthesis. Through the water-splitting reaction of PSII, light energy is converted into biologically useful chemical energy, and molecular oxygen is formed which transformed the atmosphere into an aerobic one and sustained aerobic life on the Earth.

Das Reaktionszentrum des Photosystems I hat ein Absorptionsmaximum bei einer Wellenlänge von 700 nm, es wird deshalb auch als „P700“ bezeichnet. Das Photosystem II enthält insgesamt zirka 250 Moleküle Chlorophyll a und b sowie ca. 110 Carotinoide. Photosystem II preparations poised in the S(2)Q(A) state produce no detectable intermediate during straightforward illumination at liquid helium temperatures.

Plasticity at Protein–Protein Molecular engineering of Photosystem II. We made the first computer models of the D1 and D2 proteins which form the core of photosystem II, by using the X-ray crystallographic structure of Rps. viridis as a template. We have used these to predict sites for modification of the catalytic sites by site-directed mutagenesis. Photosystem II captures sunlight and powers the unique photo-induced oxidation of water to atmospheric oxygen. Crystallographic investigations of cyanobacterial photosystem II have provided several medium-resolution structures (3.8 to 3.2 A) that explain the general arrangement of the protein matrix and cofactors, but do not give a full picture of the complex.

The paper describes a project aiming at the construction of functional mimics of the oxygen evolving complex of Photosystem II, coupled to photoinduced charge

Photosystem II preparations poised in the S(2)Q(A) state produce no detectable intermediate during straightforward illumination at liquid helium temperatures. Abstract. Photosystem II uses light to drive water oxidation and plastoquinone (PQ) reduction.

Many heavy metals inhibit electron transfer reactions in Photosystem II (PSII). Cd2+ is known to exchange, with high affinity in a slow reaction, for the Ca2+

By replenishing lost electr The light reaction of photosynthesis. The light reaction occurs in two photosystems (units of chlorophyll molecules). Light energy (indicated by wavy arrows) absorbed by photosystem II causes the formation of high-energy electrons, which are transferred along a series of acceptor molecules in an electron transport chain to photosystem I. Photosystem II obtains replacement electrons from water molecules, resulting in their split into hydrogen ions (H+) and oxygen atoms. Photosystem II (PSII) is a membrane protein complex which functions to catalyze light-induced water oxidation in oxygenic photosynthesis. Through the water-splitting reaction of PSII, light energy is converted into biologically useful chemical energy, and molecular oxygen is formed which transformed the atmosphere into an aerobic one and sustained aerobic life on the Earth.

This reaction center is surrounded by light-harvesting complexes that enhance the absorption of light.. Two families of reaction centers in photosystems exist: type I reaction centers (such as photosystem I in chloroplasts and in green-sulphur bacteria) and 2020-06-02 Photosystem II is the first link in the chain of photosynthesis. It captures photons and uses the energy to extract electrons from water molecules. These electrons are used in several ways.

2013-01-17 · Photosynthesis starts with photosystem 2. In PS2, the reactants are light energy and two water molecules. The products are two electrons, two helium ions and one oxygen atom. The two electrons produced replace the two electrons passed down into the electron transport chain in the first place.
