Abstract
The Mn4CaO5(6) cluster in photosystem II catalyzes water splitting through the Si state cycle (i = 0-4). Molecular O2 is formed and the natural catalyst is reset during the final S3 → (S4) → S0 transition. Only recently experimental breakthroughs have emerged for this transition but without explicit information on the S0-state reconstitution, thus the progression after O2 release remains elusive. In this report, our molecular dynamics simulations combined with density functional calculations suggest a likely missing link for closing the cycle, i.e., restoring the first catalytic state. Specifically, the formation of closed-cubane intermediates with all hexa-coordinate Mn is observed, which would undergo proton release, water dissociation, and ligand transfer to produce the open-cubane structure of the S0 state. Thereby, we theoretically identify the previously unknown structural isomerism in the S0 state that acts as the origin of the proposed structural flexibility prevailing in the cycle, which may be functionally important for nature's water oxidation catalysis.

Abstract
This paper reviews our historical developments of broken-symmetry (BS) and beyond BS methods that are applicable for theoretical investigations of metalloenzymes such as OEC in PSII. The BS hybrid DFT (HDFT) calculations starting from high-resolution (HR) XRD structure in the most stable S1 state have been performed to elucidate structure and bonding of whole possible intermediates of the CaMn4Ox cluster (1) in the Si (i = 0 ~ 4) states of the Kok cycle. The large-scale HDFT/MM computations starting from HR XRD have been performed to elucidate biomolecular system structures which are crucial for examination of possible water inlet and proton release pathways for water oxidation in OEC of PSII. DLPNO CCSD(T0) computations have been performed for elucidation of scope and reliability of relative energies among the intermediates by HDFT. These computations combined with EXAFS, XRD, XFEL, and EPR experimental results have elucidated the structure, bonding, and reactivity of the key intermediates, which are indispensable for understanding and explanation of the mechanism of water oxidation in OEC of PSII. Interplay between theory and experiments have elucidated important roles of four degrees of freedom, spin, charge, orbital, and nuclear motion for understanding and explanation of the chemical reactivity of 1 embedded in protein matrix, indicating the participations of the Ca(H2O)n ion and tyrosine(Yz)-O radical as a one-electron acceptor for the O-O bond formation. The Ca-assisted Yz-coupled O-O bond formation mechanisms for water oxidation are consistent with recent XES and very recent time-resolved SFX XFEL and FTIR results.

Abstract
O2 formation in photosystem II (PSII) is a vital event on Earth, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. The presently prevailing theoretical model is "radical coupling" (RC) involving a Mn(IV)-oxyl unit in an "open-cubane" Mn4CaO6 cluster, which is supported experimentally by the S3 state of cyanobacterial PSII featuring an additional Mn-bound oxygenic ligand. However, it was recently proposed that the major structural form of the S3 state of higher plants lacks this extra ligand, and that the resulting S4 state would feature instead a penta-coordinate dangler Mn(V)=oxo, covalently linked to a "closed-cubane" Mn3CaO4 cluster. For this proposal, we explore here a large number of possible pathways of O-O bond formation and demonstrate that the "nucleophilic oxo-oxo coupling" (NOOC) between Mn(V)=oxo and μ3-oxo is the only eligible mechanism in such a system. The reaction is facilitated by a specific conformation of the cluster and concomitant water binding, which is delayed compared to the RC mechanism. An energetically feasible process is described starting from the valid S4 state through the sequential formation of peroxide and superoxide, followed by O2 release and a second water insertion. The newly found mechanism is consistent with available experimental thermodynamic and kinetic data and thus a viable alternative pathway for O2 formation in natural photosynthesis, in particular for higher plants.

Abstract
In the first steps of natural oxygenic photosynthesis, sunlight is used to oxidize water molecules to protons, electrons and molecular oxygen. This reaction takes place on the Mn4Ca cluster located in the reaction centre of Photosystem II (PSII), where the cluster is assembled and continuously repaired through a process known as photoactivation. Understanding the molecular details of such a process has important implications in different fields, in particular inspiring synthesis and repair strategies for artificial photosynthesis devices. In this regard, a detailed structural and dynamic characterization of Photosystem II lacking a Mn4Ca cluster, namely apo PSII, is a prerequisite for the full comprehension of the photoactivation. Recently, the structure of the apo PSII was resolved at 2.55 Å resolution [Zhang et al., eLife, 2017, 6, e26933], suggesting a pre-organized structure of the protein cavity hosting the cluster. Anyway, the question of whether these findings are a feature of the method used remains open. Here, by means of classical Molecular Dynamics simulations, we characterized the structural and dynamic features of the apo PSII for different protonation states of the cluster cavity. Albeit an overall conformational stability common to all investigated systems, we found significant deviations in the conformation of the side chains of the active site with respect to the X-ray positions. Our findings suggest that not all residues acting as Mn ligands are pre-organized prior to the Mn4Ca formation and previous local conformational changes are required in order to bind the first Mn ion in the high-affinity binding site.

Abstract
In photosynthesis, the protein-bound natural oxygen-evolving center (OEC) undergoes multiple oxidation-state transitions in the light-driven water splitting reactions with a stepwise change in the oxidation potential. Because the protein is vulnerable to electrochemical oxidation, the multiple oxidation/reduction-state transitions can hardly be achieved by electrochemical oxidation with a continuous change in the oxidation potential. An OEC mimic that can undergo four redox transitions has been synthesized (Zhang, C., Science, 2015, 348, 690-693). Here we report an electrochemical FTIR spectroscopic study of this synthetic complex at its multiple oxidation states in the low-frequency region for Mn-O bonds. Compared with those of the native OEC induced by pulsed laser flashes, our results also show the existence of two structural isomers in the S2 state, with the closed cubane conformer being more stable than the open cubane conformer, in contrast to that of the native OEC in which the open form is more stable.

Abstract
Water oxidation occurring in the first steps of natural oxygenic photosynthesis is catalyzed by the pigment/protein complex Photosystem II. This process takes place on the Mn4Ca cluster located in the core of Photosystem II and proceeds along the five steps (S0-S4) of the so-called Kok-Joliot cycle until the release of molecular oxygen. The catalytic cycle can therefore be started afresh through insertion of a new water molecule. Here, combining quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics simulations and minimum energy path calculations, we characterized on different spin surfaces the events occurring in the last sector of the catalytic cycle from structural, electronic, and thermodynamic points of view. We found that the process of oxygen evolution and water insertion can be described well by a two-step mechanism, with oxygen release being the rate-limiting step of the process. Moreover, our results allow us to identify the upcoming water molecule required to regenerate the initial structure of the Mn4Ca cluster in the S0 state. The insertion of the water molecule was found to be coupled with the transfer of a proton to a neighboring hydroxide ion, thus resulting in the reconstitution of the most widely accepted model of the S0 state.

Abstract
Domain-based local pair natural orbital (DLPNO) coupled cluster single and double (CCSD) with triple perturbation (T) correction methods were performed to elucidate the relative stabilities of ten different intermediate structures of the CaMn4Ox cluster in the S0 state of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII). Full geometry optimizations of all the S0 intermediates were performed by the UB3LYP-D3/Def2-TZVP methods, providing the assumed geometrical structures and starting natural orbitals (UNO) for DLPNO-CCSD(T)/Def2TZVP calculations. The effective exchange integrals (J) for the spin Hamiltonian models for the ten intermediates were obtained by the UB3LYP/Def2-TZVP calculations followed by the general spin projections. DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations followed by the CBS extrapolation procedure elucidated that the (II, III, IV, IV) and (III, III, III, IV) valence states in the CaMn4O5 cluster of the OEC of the PS II were nearly degenerated in energy in the S0 state, indicating an important role of dynamical electron correlation effects for the valence and spin fluctuations in strongly correlated electron systems (SCESs) consisting of 3d transition metals.

Abstract
Photosynthetic water oxidation is catalyzed by the Mn4CaO5 cluster of photosystem II (PSII) with linear progression through five S-state intermediates (S0 to S4). To reveal the mechanism of water oxidation, we analyzed structures of PSII in the S1, S2, and S3 states by x-ray free-electron laser serial crystallography. No insertion of water was found in S2, but flipping of D1 Glu189 upon transition to S3 leads to the opening of a water channel and provides a space for incorporation of an additional oxygen ligand, resulting in an open cubane Mn4CaO6 cluster with an oxyl/oxo bridge. Structural changes of PSII between the different S states reveal cooperative action of substrate water access, proton release, and dioxygen formation in photosynthetic water oxidation.

Abstract
Water splitting, in which water molecules can be transformed into hydrogen and oxygen, is an appealing energy conversion and transformation strategy to address the environmental and energy crisis. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is dynamically slow, which limits energy conversion efficiency during the water-splitting process and requires high-efficiency water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) to overcome the OER energy barrier. It is generally accepted that multinuclear WOCs possess superior OER performances, as demonstrated by the CaMn4 O5 cluster in photosystem II (PSII), which can catalyze the OER efficiently with a very low overpotential. Inspired by the CaMn4 O5 cluster in PSII, some multinuclear WOCs were synthesized that could catalyze water oxidation. In addition, some mononuclear molecular WOCs also show high water oxidation activity. However, it cannot be excluded that the high activity arises from the formation of dimeric species. Recently, some mononuclear heterogeneous WOCs showed a high water oxidation activity, which testified that mononuclear active sites with suitable coordination surroundings could also catalyze water oxidation efficiently. This Review focuses on recent progress in the development of mono-/multinuclear homo- and heterogeneous catalysts for water oxidation. The active sites and possible catalytic mechanisms for water oxidation on the mono-/multinuclear WOCs are provided.

Abstract
The optimized geometries of the CaMn4 OX (X = 5, 6) cluster in the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII) by large-scale quantum mechanics (QM) and molecular mechanics (MM) calculations are compared with recent serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) results for the Si (i = 0-3) states. The valence states of four Mn ions by the QM/MM calculations are also examined in relation to the experimental results by the X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) for the Si intermediates. Geometrical and valence structures of right-opened Mn-hydroxide, Mn-oxo and Mn-peroxide intermediates in the S3 state are investigated in detail in relation to recent SFX and XES experiments for the S3 state. Interplay between theory and experiment indicates that the Mn-oxo intermediate is a new possible candidate for the S3 state. Implications of the computational results are discussed in relation to possible mechanisms of the oxygenoxygen bond formation for water oxidation in OEC of PSII.

Abstract
AbstractCyanobacteria and plants carry out oxygenic photosynthesis. They use water to generate the atmospheric oxygen we breathe and carbon dioxide to produce the biomass serving as food, feed, fibre and fuel. This paper scans the emergence of structural and mechanistic understanding of oxygen evolution over the past 50 years. It reviews speculative concepts and the stepped insight provided by novel experimental and theoretical techniques. Driven by sunlight photosystem II oxidizes the catalyst of water oxidation, a hetero-metallic Mn4CaO5(H2O)4 cluster. Mn3Ca are arranged in cubanoid and one Mn dangles out. By accumulation of four oxidizing equivalents before initiating dioxygen formation it matches the four-electron chemistry from water to dioxygen to the one-electron chemistry of the photo-sensitizer. Potentially harmful intermediates are thereby occluded in space and time. Kinetic signatures of the catalytic cluster and its partners in the photo-reaction centre have been resolved, in the frequency domain ranging from acoustic waves via infra-red to X-ray radiation, and in the time domain from nano- to milli-seconds. X-ray structures to a resolution of 1.9 Å are available. Even time resolved X-ray structures have been obtained by clocking the reaction cycle by flashes of light and diffraction with femtosecond X-ray pulses. The terminal reaction cascade from two molecules of water to dioxygen involves the transfer of four electrons, two protons, one dioxygen and one water. A rigorous mechanistic analysis is challenging because of the kinetic enslaving at millisecond duration of six partial reactions (4e−, 1H+, 1O2). For the time being a peroxide-intermediate in the reaction cascade to dioxygen has been in focus, both experimentally and by quantum chemistry. Homo sapiens has relied on burning the products of oxygenic photosynthesis, recent and fossil. Mankind's total energy consumption amounts to almost one-fourth of the global photosynthetic productivity. If the average power consumption equalled one of those nations with the highest consumption per capita it was four times greater and matched the total productivity. It is obvious that biomass should be harvested for food, feed, fibre and platform chemicals rather than for fuel.

Abstract
Photosynthetic water oxidation is a fundamental process that sustains the biosphere. A Mn4Ca cluster embedded in the photosystem II protein environment is responsible for the production of atmospheric oxygen. Here, time-resolved x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) was used to observe the process of oxygen formation in real time. These experiments reveal that the oxygen evolution step, initiated by three sequential laser flashes, is accompanied by rapid (within 50 μs) changes to the Mn Kβ XES spectrum. However, no oxidation of the Mn4Ca core above the all MnIV state was detected to precede O-O bond formation, and the observed changes were therefore assigned to O-O bond formation dynamics. We propose that O-O bond formation occurs prior to the transfer of the final (4th) electron from the Mn4Ca cluster to the oxidized tyrosine YZ residue. This model resolves the kinetic limitations associated with O-O bond formation, and suggests an evolutionary adaptation to avoid releasing of harmful peroxide species.

Abstract
The biological energy cycle of our planet is driven by photosynthesis whereby sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and other accessory pigments. The excitation energy is then efficiently transferred to a reaction centre where charge separation occurs in a few picoseconds. In the case of photosystem II (PSII), the energy of the charge transfer state is used to split water into oxygen and reducing equivalents. This is accomplished by the relatively low energy content of four photons of visible light. PSII is a large multi-subunit membrane protein complex embedded in the lipid environment of the thylakoid membranes of plants, algae and cyanobacteria. Four high energy electrons, together with four protons (4H+), are used to reduce plastoquinone (PQ), the terminal electron acceptor of PSII, to plastoquinol (PQH2). PQH2 passes its reducing equivalents to an electron transfer chain which feeds into photosystem I (PSI) where they gain additional reducing potential from a second light reaction which is necessary to drive CO2 reduction. The catalytic centre of PSII consists of a cluster of four Mn ions and a Ca2+ linked by oxo bonds. In addition, there are seven amino acid ligands. In this Article, I discuss the structure of this metal cluster, its stability and the probability that an acid-base (nucleophilic-electrophilic) mechanism catalyses the water splitting reaction on the surface of the metal-cluster. Evidence for this mechanism is presented from studies on water splitting catalysts consisting of organo-complexes of ruthenium and manganese and also by comparison with the enzymology of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH). Finally the relevance of our understanding of PSII is discussed in terms of artificial photosynthesis with emphasis on inorganic water splitting catalysts as oxygen generating photoelectrodes.

Abstract
Tanaka et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2017, 139, 1718) recently reported the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII) by X-ray diffraction (XRD) using extremely low X-ray doses of 0.03 and 0.12 MGy. They observed two different 3D structures of the CaMn4O5 cluster with different hydrogen-bonding interactions in the S1 state of OEC keeping the surrounding polypeptide frameworks of PSII the same. Our Jahn-Teller (JT) deformation formula based on large-scale quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) was applied for these low-dose XRD structures, elucidating important roles of JT effects of the MnIII ion for subtle geometric distortions of the CaMn4O5 cluster in OEC of PSII. The JT deformation formula revealed the similarity between the low-dose XRD and damage-free serial femtosecond X-ray diffraction (SFX) structures of the CaMn4O5 cluster in the dark stable state. The extremely low-dose XRD structures were not damaged by X-ray irradiation. Implications of the present results are discussed in relation to recent SFX results and a blue print for the design of artificial photocatalysts for water oxidation.

Abstract
In the cyanobacterial photosystem II (PSII), the O4-water chain in the D1 and CP43 proteins, a chain of water molecules that are directly H-bonded to O4 of the Mn4Ca cluster, is linked with a channel that connects the protein bulk surface along with a membrane-extrinsic protein subunit, PsbU (O4-PsbU channel). The cyanobacterial PSII structure also shows that the O1 site of the Mn4Ca cluster has a chain of H-bonded water molecules, which is linked with the channel that proceeds toward the bulk surface via PsbU and PsbV (O1-PsbU/V channel). Membrane-extrinsic protein subunits PsbU and PsbV in cyanobacterial PSII are replaced with PsbP and PsbQ in plant PSII. However, these four proteins have no structural similarity. It remains unknown whether the corresponding channels also exist in plant PSII, because water molecules are not identified in the plant PSII cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure. Using the cyanobacterial and plant PSII structures, we analyzed the channels that proceed from the Mn4Ca cluster. The cyanobacterial O4-PsbU and O1-PsbU/V channels were structurally conserved as the channel that proceeds along PsbP toward the protein bulk surface in the plant PSII (O4-PsbP and O1-PsbP channels, respectively). Calculated protonation states indicated that in contrast to the original geometry of the plant cryo-EM structure, protonated PsbP-Lys166 may form a salt-bridge with ionized D1-Glu329 and protonated PsbP-Lys173 may form a salt-bridge with ionized PsbQ-Asp28 near the O1-PsbP channel. The existence of these channels might explain the molecular mechanism of how PsbP can interact with the Mn4Ca cluster.

Abstract
Sunlight is absorbed and converted to chemical energy by photosynthetic organisms. At the heart of this process is the most fundamental reaction on Earth, the light-driven splitting of water into its elemental constituents. In this way molecular oxygen is released, maintaining an aerobic atmosphere and creating the ozone layer. The hydrogen that is released is used to convert carbon dioxide into the organic molecules that constitute life and were the origin of fossil fuels. Oxidation of these organic molecules, either by respiration or combustion, leads to the recombination of the stored hydrogen with oxygen, releasing energy and reforming water. This water splitting is achieved by the enzyme photosystem II (PSII). Its appearance at least 3 billion years ago, and linkage through an electron transfer chain to photosystem I, directly led to the emergence of eukaryotic and multicellular organisms. Before this, biological organisms had been dependent on hydrogen/electron donors, such as H2S, NH3, organic acids and Fe2+, that were in limited supply compared with the oceans of liquid water. However, it is likely that water was also used as a hydrogen source before the emergence of PSII, as found today in anaerobic prokaryotic organisms that use carbon monoxide as an energy source to split water. The enzyme that catalyses this reaction is carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH). Similarities between PSII and the iron- and nickel-containing form of this enzyme (Fe-Ni CODH) suggest a possible mechanism for the photosynthetic O-O bond formation.

Light-induced structural changes and the site of O=O bond formation in PSII caught by XFEL. Nature 2017; 543:131-135.

Abstract
Photosystem II (PSII) is a huge membrane-protein complex consisting of 20 different subunits with a total molecular mass of 350 kDa for a monomer. It catalyses light-driven water oxidation at its catalytic centre, the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). The structure of PSII has been analysed at 1.9 Å resolution by synchrotron radiation X-rays, which revealed that the OEC is a Mn4CaO5 cluster organized in an asymmetric, 'distorted-chair' form. This structure was further analysed with femtosecond X-ray free electron lasers (XFEL), providing the 'radiation damage-free' structure. The mechanism of O=O bond formation, however, remains obscure owing to the lack of intermediate-state structures. Here we describe the structural changes in PSII induced by two-flash illumination at room temperature at a resolution of 2.35 Å using time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography with an XFEL provided by the SPring-8 ångström compact free-electron laser. An isomorphous difference Fourier map between the two-flash and dark-adapted states revealed two areas of apparent changes: around the QB/non-haem iron and the Mn4CaO5 cluster. The changes around the QB/non-haem iron region reflected the electron and proton transfers induced by the two-flash illumination. In the region around the OEC, a water molecule located 3.5 Å from the Mn4CaO5 cluster disappeared from the map upon two-flash illumination. This reduced the distance between another water molecule and the oxygen atom O4, suggesting that proton transfer also occurred. Importantly, the two-flash-minus-dark isomorphous difference Fourier map showed an apparent positive peak around O5, a unique μ4-oxo-bridge located in the quasi-centre of Mn1 and Mn4 (refs 4,5). This suggests the insertion of a new oxygen atom (O6) close to O5, providing an O=O distance of 1.5 Å between these two oxygen atoms. This provides a mechanism for the O=O bond formation consistent with that proposed previously.

Abstract
Large-scale QM/MM calculations were performed to elucidate an optimized geometrical structure of a CaMn4O5 cluster with and without water insertion in the S3 state of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII). The left (L)-opened structure was found to be stable under the assumption of no hydroxide anion insertion in the S3 state, whereas the right (R)-opened structure became more stable if one water molecule is inserted to the Mn4Ca cluster. The optimized Mna(4)–Mnd(1) distance determined by QM/MM was about 5.0 Å for the S3 structure without an inserted hydroxide anion, but this is elongated by 0.2–0.3 Å after insertion. These computational results are discussed in relation to the possible mechanisms of O–O bond formation in water oxidation by the OEC of PSII.

Abstract
Light-induced oxidation of water by photosystem II (PS II) in plants, algae and cyanobacteria has generated most of the dioxygen in the atmosphere. PS II, a membrane-bound multi-subunit pigment protein complex, couples the one-electron photochemistry at the reaction centre with the four-electron redox chemistry of water oxidation at the Mn4CaO5 cluster in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Under illumination, the OEC cycles through five intermediate S-states (S0 to S4), in which S1 is the dark-stable state and S3 is the last semi-stable state before O-O bond formation and O2 evolution. A detailed understanding of the O-O bond formation mechanism remains a challenge, and will require elucidation of both the structures of the OEC in the different S-states and the binding of the two substrate waters to the catalytic site. Here we report the use of femtosecond pulses from an X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) to obtain damage-free, room temperature structures of dark-adapted (S1), two-flash illuminated (2F; S3-enriched), and ammonia-bound two-flash illuminated (2F-NH3; S3-enriched) PS II. Although the recent 1.95 Å resolution structure of PS II at cryogenic temperature using an XFEL provided a damage-free view of the S1 state, measurements at room temperature are required to study the structural landscape of proteins under functional conditions, and also for in situ advancement of the S-states. To investigate the water-binding site(s), ammonia, a water analogue, has been used as a marker, as it binds to the Mn4CaO5 cluster in the S2 and S3 states. Since the ammonia-bound OEC is active, the ammonia-binding Mn site is not a substrate water site. This approach, together with a comparison of the native dark and 2F states, is used to discriminate between proposed O-O bond formation mechanisms.

Abstract
Full geometry optimizations followed by the vibrational analysis were performed for eight spin configurations of the CaMn4O4X(H2O)3Y (X = O, OH; Y = H2O, OH) cluster in the S1 and S3 states of the oxygen evolution complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII). The energy gaps among these configurations obtained by vertical, adiabatic and adiabatic plus zero-point-energy (ZPE) correction procedures have been used for computation of the effective exchange integrals (J) in the spin Hamiltonian model. The J values are calculated by the (1) analytical method and the (2) generalized approximate spin projection (AP) method that eliminates the spin contamination errors of UB3LYP solutions. Using J values derived from these methods, exact diagonalization of the spin Hamiltonian matrix was carried out, yielding excitation energies and spin densities of the ground and lower-excited states of the cluster. The obtained results for the right (R)- and left (L)-opened structures in the S1 and S3 states are found to be consistent with available optical and magnetic experimental results. Implications of the computational results are discussed in relation to (a) the necessity of the exact diagonalization for computations of reliable energy levels, (b) magneto-structural correlations in the CaMn4O5 cluster of the OEC of PSII, (c) structural symmetry breaking in the S1 and S3 states, and (d) the right- and left-handed scenarios for the O-O bond formation for water oxidation.
