Abstract
In this study, we identified two Mn2+ sites in apo-Photosystem II (PSII) using the pulsed electron-electron double resonance (PELDOR). A Mn2+ ion was bound to apo-PSII on the deactivation of the oxygen-evolving complex. The electron-electron magnetic dipole interaction of the Mn2+ to YD· was estimated to be 2.4 MHz. The site was assigned at the position between His332 and Glu189 in the D1 polypeptide, which is close to the Mn1 site in mature PS II. Using recent structures observed under electron microscopes (EM), the location of the Mn2+ site on photoactivation was reevaluated. The position between Asp170 and Glu189 in the D1 polypeptide is a good candidate for the initial high-affinity site for photoactivation. Based on a comparison with the PELDOR results, the two EM structures were evaluated.

Abstract
Photosynthetic O2 evolution is catalyzed by the Mn4CaO5 cluster of the water oxidation complex of the photosystem II (PSII) complex. The photooxidative self-assembly of the Mn4CaO5 cluster, termed photoactivation, utilizes the same highly oxidizing species that drive the water oxidation in order to drive the incorporation of Mn2+ into the high-valence Mn4CaO5 cluster. This multistep process proceeds with low quantum efficiency, involves a molecular rearrangement between light-activated steps, and is prone to photoinactivation and misassembly. A sensitive polarographic technique was used to track the assembly process under flash illumination as a function of the constituent Mn2+ and Ca2+ ions in genetically engineered membranes of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 to elucidate the action of Ca2+ and peripheral proteins. We show that the protein scaffolding organizing this process is allosterically modulated by the assembly protein Psb27, which together with Ca2+ stabilizes the intermediates of photoactivation, a feature especially evident at long intervals between photoactivating flashes. The results indicate three critical metal-binding sites: two Mn and one Ca, with occupation of the Ca site by Ca2+ critical for the suppression of photoinactivation. The long-observed competition between Mn2+ and Ca2+ occurs at the second Mn site, and its occupation by competing Ca2+ slows the rearrangement. The relatively low overall quantum efficiency of photoactivation is explained by the requirement of correct occupancy of these metal-binding sites coupled to a slow restructuring of the protein ligation environment, which are jointly necessary for the photooxidative trapping of the first stable assembly intermediate.

Abstract
This review describes the results from X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy studies that have contributed to an understanding of the role of Ca in the photosynthetic water-oxidation reaction. The results include the first Mn, Ca and Sr X-ray spectroscopy studies using Ca or Sr-substituted PS II samples that established the presence of a MnCa heteronuclear structure and its orientation, and the most recent Sr X-ray spectroscopy study using biosynthetically prepared Sr-containing PS II in the various S-states that provide important insights into the requirement for Ca in the mechanism of the Mn(4)Ca catalytic center.

Abstract
Cytochrome c(550) (cyt c(550)) is a component of photosystem II (PSII) from cyanobacteria, red algae, and some other eukaryotic algae. Its physiological role remains unclear. In the present work, measurements of the midpoint redox potential (E(m)) were performed using intact PSII core complexes preparations from a histidine-tagged PSII mutant strain of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus (T.) elongatus. When redox titrations were done in the absence of redox mediators, an E(m) value of +200 mV was obtained for cyt c(550). This value is ∼300 mV more positive than that previously measured in the presence of mediators (E(m) = -80 mV). The shift from the high potential form (E(m) = +200 mV) to the low potential form (E(m) = -80 mV) of cyt c(550) is attributed to conformational changes, triggered by the reduction of a component of PSII that is sequestered and out of equilibrium with the medium, most likely the Mn(4)Ca cluster. This reduction can occur when reduced low potential redox mediators are present or under highly reducing conditions even in the absence of mediators. Based on these observations, it is suggested that the E(m) of +200 mV obtained without mediators could be the physiological redox potential of the cyt c(550) in PSII. This value opens the possibility of a redox function for cyt c(550) in PSII.

Abstract
The Manganese Stabilizing Protein (MSP) of Photosystem II (PSII) is a so-called extrinsic subunit, which reversibly associates with the other membrane-bound PSII subunits. The MSP is essential for maximum rates of O(2) production under physiological conditions as stabilizes the catalytic [Mn(4)Ca] cluster, which is the site of water oxidation. The function of the MSP subunit in the PSII complex has been extensively studied in higher plants, and the structure of non-PSII associated MSP has been studied by low-resolution biophysical techniques. Recently, crystal structures of PSII from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus have resolved the MSP subunit in its PSII-associated state. However, neither any crystal structure is available yet for MSP from mesophilic organisms, higher plants or algae nor has the non-PSII associated form of MSP been crystallized. This article reviews the current understanding of the structure, dynamics, and function of MSP, with a particular focus on properties of the MSP from T. elongatus that may be attributable to the thermophilic ecology of this organism rather than being general features of MSP.

Abstract
Photosystem II catalyzes the oxidation of water and the reduction of plastoquinone. The active site cycles among five oxidation states, which are called the S(n) states. PSII purification procedures include the use of the cosolvents, sucrose and/or glycerol, to stabilize water splitting activity and for cryoprotection. In this study, the effects of sucrose and glycerol on PSII were investigated. Sucrose addition was observed to stimulate the steady-state rate of oxygen evolution in the range from 0 to 1.35 M. Glycerol addition was observed to stimulate oxygen evolution in the range from 0 to 30%. Both cosolvents were observed to be inhibitory at higher concentrations. Sucrose addition was shown to have no effect on the rate of Q(A)(-) oxidation or on the K(M) for exogenous acceptor. PSII was then treated to remove extrinsic proteins. In these samples, sucrose addition stimulated activity, but glycerol addition was inhibitory at concentrations higher than approximately 0.5 M. This inhibitory effect of glycerol at relatively low concentrations is attributed to glycerol binding to the active site, when extrinsic subunits are not present. Reaction induced FTIR spectra, associated with the S(1) to S(2) transition of the water-oxidizing complex, exhibited significant differences throughout the 1,800-1,200 cm(-1) region, when glycerol- and sucrose-containing samples were compared. These measurements suggest a cosolvent-induced shift in the pK(A) of an aspartic or glutamic acid side chain, as well as structural changes at the active site. These structural alterations are attributed to a change in preferential hydration of the oxygen-evolving complex.

Abstract
The (18)O exchange rates for the substrate water bound in the S(3) state were determined in different photosystem II sample types using time-resolved mass spectrometry. The samples included thylakoid membranes, salt-washed Triton X-100-prepared membrane fragments, and purified core complexes from spinach and cyanobacteria. For each sample type, two kinetically distinct isotopic exchange rates could be resolved, indicating that the biphasic exchange behavior for the substrate water is inherent to the O(2)-evolving catalytic site in the S(3) state. However, the fast phase of exchange became somewhat slower (by a factor of approximately 2) in NaCl-washed membrane fragments and core complexes from spinach in which the 16- and 23-kDa extrinsic proteins have been removed, compared with the corresponding rate for the intact samples. For CaCl(2)-washed membrane fragments in which the 33-kDa manganese stabilizing protein (MSP) has also been removed, the fast phase of exchange slowed down even further (by a factor of approximately 3). Interestingly, the slow phase of exchange was little affected in the samples from spinach. For core complexes prepared from Synechocystis PCC 6803 and Synechococcus elongatus, the fast and slow exchange rates were variously affected. Nevertheless, within the experimental error, nearly the same exchange rates were measured for thylakoid samples made from wild type and an MSP-lacking mutant of Synechocystis PCC 6803. This result could indicate that the MSP has a slightly different function in eukaryotic organisms compared with prokaryotic organisms. In all samples, however, the differences in the exchange rates are relatively small. Such small differences are unlikely to arise from major changes in the metal-ligand structure at the catalytic site. Rather, the observed differences may reflect subtle long range effects in which the exchange reaction coordinates become slightly altered. We discuss the results in terms of solvent penetration into photosystem II and the regional dielectric around the catalytic site.

Abstract
Exposure of photosystem II membranes to trypsin that has been treated to inhibit chymotrypsin activity produces limited hydrolysis of manganese stabilizing protein. Exposure to chymotrypsin under the same conditions yields substantial digestion of the protein. Further probing of the unusual insensitivity of manganese stabilizing protein to trypsin hydrolysis reveals that increasing the temperature from 4 to 25 degrees C will cause some acceleration in the rate of proteolysis. However, addition of low (100 microM) concentrations of NH2OH, that are sufficient to reduce, but not destroy, the photosystem II Mn cluster, causes a change in PS II-bound manganese stabilizing protein that causes it to be rapidly digested by trypsin. Immunoblot analyses with polyclonal antibodies directed against the N-terminus of the protein, or against the entire sequence show that trypsin cleavage produces two distinct peptide fragments estimated to be in the 17-20 kDa range, consistent with proposals that there are 2 mol of the protein/mol photosystem II. The correlation of trypsin sensitivity with Mn redox state(s) in photosystem II suggest that manganese stabilizing protein may interact either directly with Mn, or alternatively, that the polypeptide is bound to another protein of the photosystem II reaction center that is intimately involved in binding and redox activity of Mn.

Abstract
Photosynthetic water oxidation occurs at the Mn-containing catalytic site of photosystem II (PSII). By the use of 14C-labeled amines and SDS-denaturing PAGE, covalent adducts derived from primary amines and the PSII subunits, CP47, D2/D1, and the Mn-stabilizing protein, can be observed. When PSII contains the 18- and 24-kDa extrinsic proteins, which restrict access to the active site, no 14C labeling is obtained. NaCl, but not Na2SO4, competes with 14C labeling in Mn-containing PSII preparations, and the concentration dependence of this competition parallels the activation of oxygen evolution. Formation of 14C-labeled adducts is observed in the presence or in the absence of a functional manganese cluster. However, no significant Cl- effect on 14C labeling is observed in the absence of the Mn cluster. Isolation and quantitation of the 14C-labeled aldehyde product, produced from [14C]benzylamine, gives yields of 1. 8 +/- 0.3 mol/mol PSII and 2.9 +/- 0.2 mol/mol in Mn-containing and Mn-depleted PSII, respectively. The corresponding specific activities are 0.40 +/- 0.07 micromol(micromol PSII-hr)-1 and 0.64 +/- 0.04 micromol(micromol PSII-hr)-1. Cl- suppresses the production of [14C]benzaldehyde in Mn-containing PSII, but does not suppress the production in Mn-depleted preparations. Control experiments show that these oxidation reactions do not involve the redox-active tyrosines, D and Z. Our results suggest the presence of one or more activated carbonyl groups in protein subunits that form the active site of PSII.

Abstract
EPR properties of Cyt b-559 have been investigated in intact chloroplasts that are functionally competent in O2 evolution and in CO2 fixation. After chemical oxidation of Cyt b-559 by 10 mM 2,3-dicyano, 4,5-dichloro-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) the major part of Cyt b-559 is found to be present in the high spin Fe(III) form. Only a small fraction of low spin heme Fe(III) (less than 5%) was formed by chemical or light-induced oxidation. This fraction increased during aging of intact chloroplasts. A comparison with the EPR signal of Fe(III) in myoglobin (Mb) reveals that the structure of the high spin signal in intact chloroplasts is indicative for the presence of an axial OH- ligand at the heme Fe(III). This type of ligation comprised a considerable part (approximately 40%) of the total Cyt b-559 content. Removal of the Mn-cluster caused a change of the EPR parameters of OH- ligation. When in intact chloroplasts the heme Fe is chemically oxidized to Fe(III) ligated by OH-, this OH- ligation disappeared after a subsequent illumination at 80K by red light. Upon illumination at 140K this disappearance was accompanied by the formation of a high spin Fe(III) that is not ligated by OH-. These results are discussed in terms of removal of OH- from Fe(III) caused by structural changes or photooxidation at a complex of Cyt b-559 that could possibly also comprise the Mn-cluster. This photooxidation is assumed to be accompanied by the formation of a bound OH. radical. The possibility is discussed that this process is related to photosynthetic water oxidation.

Abstract
Using EPR and EXAFS spectroscopies we show that high concentrations of ammonium cations at alkaline pH are required for (1) inhibition of oxygen evolution: (2) an alteration of the EPR properties of the oxygen evolving complex: (3) the ability to detect YZ; and (4) the slow reduction of the Mn complex leading to the appearance of EPR detectable Mn2+. The inhibition of S state cycling, slowing of YZ reduction, appearance of Mn2+ and the yield of a Hpp < 10 mT S3 type EPR signal are decreased by calcium addition. This indicates that these effects were probably associated with calcium depletion arising from the high concentration of ammonium cation. The ammonia-induced changes to the S2 multiline EPR signal are not affected by calcium addition. The appearance of Mn2+ is shown to be reversible on illumination, suggesting that the Mn reduced from the native state is located at or near the native site. Simulations of the interaction which give rise to the S3 EPR signal are also presented and discussed. These indicate that lineshape differences occur through small changes in the exchange component of the interaction between the manganese complex and organic radical, probably through minor structural changes between the variously treated samples.

Several site-directed photosystem II mutants with substitutions at Asp-170 of the D1 polypeptide were characterized by noninvasive methods in vivo. In several mutants, including some that evolve oxygen, a significant fraction of photosystem II reaction centers are shown to lack photooxidizable Mn ions. In this fraction of reaction centers, either the high-affinity site from which Mn ions rapidly reduce the oxidized secondary electron donor, YZ+, is devoid of Mn ions or the Mn ion(s) bound at this site are unable to reduce YZ+. It is concluded that the Mn clusters in these mutants are unstable or are assembled inefficiently in vivo. Mutants were constructed in the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The in vivo characterization procedures employed in this study involved measuring changes in the yield of variable chlorophyll a fluorescence following a saturating flash or brief illumination given in the presence of the electron transfer inhibitor 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea, or following each of a series of saturating flashes given in the absence of this inhibitor. These procedures are easily applied to mutants that evolve little or no oxygen, facilitate the characterization of mutants with labile oxygen-evolving complexes, permit photosystem II isolation efforts to be concentrated on mutants having the stablest Mn clusters, and guide systematic spectroscopic studies of isolated photosystem II particles to mutants of particular interest.

Abstract
To identify amino acid residues that influence the assembly or stability of the manganese cluster in photosystem II, we have generated site-directed mutations in the D1 polypeptide of the cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Indirect evidence has suggested that the D1 polypeptide provides some of the ligands that are required for metal binding. Mutations at position 170 of D1 were selected for characterization, since an aspartate to asparagine mutation (DN170D1) at this position completely abolishes photoautotrophic growth, while retention of a carboxylic acid at this position (aspartate to glutamate, DE170D1) supports photoautotrophic growth. Photosystem II particles were purified from control, DE170D1, and DN170D1 cells by a procedure that retains high rates of oxygen evolution activity in control particles [Noren, G.H., Boerner, R.J., & Barry, B.A. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 3943-3950]. Spectroscopic analysis shows that the tyrosine radical, Z+, which normally oxidizes the manganese cluster, is rapidly reduced in the DE170D1 mutant, but not in the DN170D1 mutant. A possible explanation of this block or dramatic decrease in the rate of electron transfer between the manganese cluster and tyrosine Z is an alteration in the properties of the metal center. Quantitation of manganese in these particles is consistent with aspartate 170 influencing the stability or assembly of the manganese cluster, since the aspartate to asparagine mutation results in a decrease in the manganese content per reaction center. Photosystem II particles from DN170D1 show a 60% decrease in the amount of specifically bound manganese per reaction center, when compared to control particles. Also, we observe a 70% decrease in the amount of specifically bound manganese per reaction center in partially purified DN170D1 particles and at least an 80% decrease in the amount of hydroxylamine-reducible manganese in DN170D1 thylakoid membranes. Single-turnover fluorescence assays and steady-state EPR measurements demonstrate that the remaining, endogenous manganese does not rapidly reduce tyrosine Z+ in the DN170D1 mutant. Additional evidence that aspartate 170 influences the assembly or stability of the metal site comes from analysis of the DE170D1 mutant. Although this mutant assembles a functional manganese cluster, as assessed by oxygen evolution and spectroscopic assays, the properties of the manganese site are perturbed.

Abstract
AB96, a gene encoding a Pisum sativum chlorophyll a/b binding protein [Coruzzi et al. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 1399-1402], can be expressed in Escherichia coli and reconstituted with pigments by the procedure described by Plumley and Schmidt [(1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 84, 146-150]. Following purification by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the reconstituted pigment-protein complex (CP2) is shown to have similar pigment-binding characteristics to native CP2 complexes isolated from thylakoid membranes. Therefore, the AB96 gene product contains binding sites for chlorophylls a and b and xanthophylls, all of which are necessary for optimal reconstitution in vitro. Absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopy indicate that the pigments are oriented accurately and that chlorophylls a and b are adjoined for energy transfer. Studies with proteins produced after deletion mutagenesis of AB96 indicate that NH2-terminal amino acids 1-21 and COOH-terminal amino acids 219-228 do not play a role in pigment binding. In contrast, amino acids 50-57 and 204-212 (encompassing one of three conserved histidine residues) are essential for reconstitution. Residues near the presumed NH2- and COOH-terminal alpha-helix boundaries (22-49 and 213-218, respectively) affect the stability of reconstituted CP2 during electrophoresis at 4 degrees C. Correlation of diminished chlorophyll a binding with disappearance of a negative circular dichroism near 684 nm suggests that amino acids 213-218 near the COOH-terminal boundary of the third membrane-spanning helix affect the binding of some chlorophyll a molecules.

Abstract
Selective extraction-reconstitution experiments with the extrinsic Photosystem II polypeptides (33 kDa, 23 kDa and 17 kDa) have demonstrated that the manganese complex and the 33 kDa polypeptide are both necessary structural elements for the tight binding of the water soluble 17 and 23 kDa species. When the manganese complex is intact the 33 kDa protein interacts strongly with the rest of the photosynthetic complex. Destruction of the Mn-complex has two dramatic effects: i) The binding of the 33 kDa polypeptide is weaker, since it can be removed by exposure of the PS II system to 2 M NaCl, and ii) the 17 and 23 kDa species do not rebind to Mn-depleted Photosystem II membranes that retain the 33 kDa protein.

Abstract
The dark reaction of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) with the O2-evolving center of photosystem II (PSII) in the S1 state causes irreversible inhibition of O2 evolution. Similar inhibition is observed for several other amines: NH3, CH3NH2, (CH3)2NH, ethanolamine, and 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol. In PSII membranes, both depleted of the 17- and 23-kDa polypeptides and undepleted, the rate of reaction of Tris depends inversely upon the Cl- concentration. However, the rate of reaction of Tris is about 2-fold greater with PSII membranes depleted of the 17- and 23-kDa polypeptides than with undepleted PSII membranes. We have used low-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy to study the effect of Tris on the oxidation state of the Mn complex in the O2-evolving center, to monitor the electron-donation reactions in Tris-treated samples, and to observe any loss of the Mn complex (forming Mn2+ ions) after Tris treatment. We find that Tris treatment causes loss of electron-donation ability from the Mn complex at the same rate as inhibition of O2 evolution and that Mn2+ ions are released. We conclude that Tris reduces the Mn complex to labile Mn2+ ions, without generating any kinetically stable, partially reduced intermediates, and that the reaction occurs at the Cl(-)-sensitive site previously characterized in studies of the reversible inhibition of O2 evolution by amines.

Abstract
Calcium is required for oxidation of water to molecular oxygen by photosystem II; the Ca2+ demand of the reaction increases upon removal of 23- and 17-kDa extrinsic polypeptides from detergent-derived preparations of the photosystem. Employing the manganese reductant NH2OH as a probe to examine the function of Ca2+ in photosystem II reveals that (1) Ca2+ slows the rate of NH2OH inhibition of O2 evolution activity, but only in photosystem II membranes depleted of extrinsic proteins, (2) other divalent cations (Sr2+, Cd2+) that compete for the Ca2+ site also slow NH2OH inhibition, (3) Ca2+ is noncompetitive with respect to NH2OH, (4) in order to slow inhibition, Ca2+ must be present prior to the initiation of NH2OH reduction of manganese, and (5) Ca2+ appears not to interfere with NH2OH reduction of manganese. We conclude that the ability of Ca2+ to slow the rate of NH2OH inhibition arises from the site in photosystem II where Ca2+ normally stimulates O2 evolution and that the mechanism of this phenomenon arises from the ability of Ca2+ or certain surrogate metals to stabilize the ligation environment of the manganese complex.

Abstract
Flash excitation of Tris-treated photosystem II (PSII) membranes generated a thermoluminescence band peaking at -20 degrees C, indicating that a positively charged oxidizing equivalent is stably accumulated on donor side of PSII even in the absence of the Mn-cluster. This oxidizing equivalent was sensitive to low concentrations of exogenous Mn2+, and its stable accumulation was reversibly inhibited by diethylpyrocarbonate treatment that modifies histidine residues with high specificity. It was inferred that there is a photooxidizable histidine residue(s) on donor side of PSII and it provides a redox-active ligand for Mn.

Abstract
The dark incubation at room temperature of photosystem II (PS II) membrane fragments in a chloride-free medium at pH 6.3 slowly leads to large chloride-restorable and non-restorable O2 evolution activity losses with time as compared with control samples incubated in the presence of 10 mM NaCl. The chloride requirement in O2 evolution generated under these conditions reveals a complex interplay among various experimental parameters, including the source of the plant material, the times of incubation, the sample concentration, the chloride concentration, as well as those treatments which are believed to specifically displace chloride from PS II such as alkaline pH pretreatment and Na2SO4 addition. The results indicate that secondary, structural changes within the PS II complex are an important factor in determining the influence of chloride on the O2 evolution activity and raise the question whether or not chloride ions actually play a direct cofactor role in the water-oxidizing reactions leading to O2 evolution.

Abstract
Kinetic analyses were made of the effects of weak-light photoinhibition on the capacity of NH2OH-extracted photosystem II membranes to photooxidize the exogenous electron donors Mn2+, diphenylcarbazide, and I- or to assemble functional water-oxidizing complexes during photoactivation. The loss of capacity for photooxidation of the donors showed two first-order components (half-times of 2-3 min and 1-4 h) with relative amplitudes dependent on the donor, suggesting two photodamageable sites of electron donation (sites 1 and 2, respectively), a conclusion confirmed by analyses of velocity curves of electron donation by each donor. All of the donors appear to be oxidized preferentially by site 1 both at saturating and at limiting light intensity; however, the contribution by site 2 was nearly comparable in saturating light. Loss of photoactivation also exhibited biphasic kinetics, with components having half-times of approximately 0.8 and 3.2 min. The major component (t1/2 = 3.2 min) corresponded to loss of site 1; essentially no photoactivation was observed after its loss. From these and other analyses, we conclude (1) the relative contributions of site 1 and site 2 to the photooxidation of various exogenous electron donors is determined largely by the rates of equilibration of the donors with the two sites, and (2) only site 1 contributes to photoactivation of the water-oxidizing complex. Site 1 is attributed to tyrosine Z of the reaction center's D1 polypeptide. The molecular identity of site 2 is unknown but may be tyrosine D of the D2 polypeptide.

Abstract
In the last few years our knowledge of the structure and function of Photosystem II in oxygen-evolving organisms has increased significantly. The biochemical isolation and characterization of essential protein components and the comparative analysis from purple photosynthetic bacteria (Deisenhofer, Epp, Miki, Huber and Michel (1984) J Mol Biol 180: 385-398) have led to a more concise picture of Photosystem II organization. Thus, it is now generally accepted that the so-called D1 and D2 intrinsic proteins bind the primary reactants and the reducing-side components. Simultaneously, the nature and reaction kinetics of the major electron transfer components have been further clarified. For example, the radicals giving rise to the different forms of EPR Signal II have recently been assigned to oxidized tyrosine residues on the D1 and D2 proteins, while the so-called Q400 component has been assigned to the ferric form of the acceptor-side iron. The primary charge-separation has been meaured to take place in about 3 ps. However, despite all recent major efforts, the location of the manganese ions and the water-oxidation mechanism still remain largely unknown. Other topics which lately have received much attention include the organization of Photosystem II in the thylakoid membrane and the role of lipids and ionic cofactors like bicarbonate, calcium and chloride. This article attempts to give an overall update in this rapidly expanding field.

Abstract
We have raised antibodies against several major components of photosystem II. These antisera, which are directed against the apoproteins of two chlorophyll-binding proteins (CPa-1 and CPa-2), the apoprotein of light-harvesting complex II and the 33-kDa extrinsic protein of the oxygen-evolving complex, were used to examine the light regulation of photosystem II assembly in maize. The principal findings of this study are as follows. The 33-kDa protein is present in dark-grown maize and the content increases 5-10-fold upon illumination. The level of the protein is mediated at least in part by phytochrome and is independent of the accumulation of chlorophyll. In contrast, none of the three chlorophyll-binding proteins examined was detectable in leaves of maize grown in darkness or under other light regimes where chlorophyll does not accumulate. Even in the absence of photosystem II assembly, the 33-kDa protein is properly transported across the thylakoid into the lumen. However, the protein does not attach in the normal way to the inner surface of the membrane under these conditions.
