Abstract
Water oxidation in photosystem II (PSII) is performed by the oxygen-evolving complex Mn4CaO5 which can be extracted from PSII and then reconstructed using exogenous cations Mn(II) and Ca2+. The binding efficiency of other cations to the Mn-binding sites in Mn-depleted PSII was investigated without any positive results. At the same time, a study of the Fe cations interaction with Mn-binding sites showed that it binds at a level comparable with the binding of Mn cations. Binding of Fe(II) cations first requires its light-dependent oxidation. In general, the interaction of Fe(II) with Mn-depleted PSII has a number of features similar to the two-quantum model of photoactivation of the complex with the release of oxygen. Interestingly, incubation of Ca-depleted PSII with Fe(II) cations under certain conditions is accompanied by the formation of a chimeric cluster Mn/Fe in the oxygen-evolving complex. PSII with the cluster 2Mn2Fe was found to be capable of water oxidation, but only to the H2O2 intermediate. However, the cluster 3Mn1Fe can oxidize water to O2 with an efficiency about 25% of the original in the absence of extrinsic proteins PsbQ and PsbP. In the presence of these proteins, the efficiency of O2 evolution can reach 80% of the original when adding exogenous Ca2+. In this review, we summarized information on the formation of chimeric Mn-Fe clusters in the oxygen-evolving complex. The data cited may be useful for detailing the mechanism of water oxidation.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution by photosystem II (PSII) involves activation by Cl- ion, which is regulated by extrinsic subunits PsbQ and PsbP. In this study, the kinetics of chloride activation of oxygen evolution was studied in preparations of PSII depleted of the PsbQ and PsbP subunits (NaCl-washed and Na2SO4/pH 7.5-treated) over a pH range from 5.3 to 8.0. At low pH, activation by chloride was followed by inhibition at chloride concentrations >100 mM, whereas at high pH activation continued as the chloride concentration increased above 100 mM. Both activation and inhibition were more pronounced at lower pH, indicating that Cl- binding depended on protonation events in each case. The simplest kinetic model that could account for the complete data set included binding of Cl- at two sites, one for activation and one for inhibition, and four protonation steps. The intrinsic (pH-independent) dissociation constant for Cl- activation, K S, was found to be 0.9 ± 0.2 mM for both preparations, and three of the four pK as were determined, with the fourth falling below the pH range studied. The intrinsic inhibition constant, K I, was found to be 64 ± 2 and 103 ± 7 mM for the NaCl-washed and Na2SO4/pH7.5-treated preparations, respectively, and is considered in terms of the conditions likely to be present in the thylakoid lumen. This enzyme kinetics analysis provides a more complete characterization of chloride and pH dependence of O2 evolution activity than has been previously presented.

Abstract
The role of chloride in photosystem II (PSII) is unclear. Several monovalent anions compete for the Cl(-) site(s) in PSII, and some even support activity. NO2(-) has been reported to be an activator in Cl(-)-depleted PSII membranes. In this paper, we report a detailed investigation of the chemistry of NO2(-) with PSII. NO2(-) is shown to inhibit PSII activity, and the effects on the donor side as well as the acceptor side are characterized using steady-state O2-evolution assays, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, electron-transfer assays, and flash-induced polarographic O2 yield measurements. Enzyme kinetics analysis shows multiple sites of NO2(-) inhibition in PSII with significant inhibition of oxygen evolution at <5 mM NO2(-). By EPR spectroscopy, the yield of the S2 state remains unchanged up to 15 mM NO2(-). However, the S2-state g = 4.1 signal is favored over the g = 2 multiline signal with increasing NO2(-) concentrations. This could indicate competition of NO2(-) for the Cl(-) site at higher NO2(-) concentrations. In addition to the donor-side chemistry, there is clear evidence of an acceptor-side effect of NO2(-). The g = 1.9 Fe(II)-QA(-•) signal is replaced by a broad g = 1.6 signal in the presence of NO2(-). Additionally, a g = 1.8 Fe(II)-Q(-•) signal is present in the dark, indicating the formation of a NO2(-)-bound Fe(II)-QB(-•) species in the dark. Electron-transfer assays suggest that the inhibitory effect of NO2(-) on the activity of PSII is largely due to the donor-side chemistry of NO2(-). UV-visible spectroscopy and flash-induced polarographic O2 yield measurements indicate that NO2(-) is oxidized by the oxygen-evolving complex in the higher S states, contributing to the donor-side inhibition by NO2(-).

Abstract
Hydroxide ion inhibits Photosystem II (PSII) activity by extracting Cl(-) from its binding site in the O(2)-evolving complex (OEC) under continuous illumination [Critchley, C., et al. (1982) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 682, 436]. The experiments reported here examine whether two subunits of PsbO, the manganese-stabilizing protein, bound to eukaryotic PSII play a role in protecting the OEC against OH(-) inhibition. The data show that the PSII binding properties of PsbO affect the pH optimum for O(2) evolution activity as well as the Cl(-) affinity of the OEC that decreases with an increasing pH. These results suggest that PsbO functions as a barrier against inhibition of the OEC by OH(-). Through facilitation of efficient retention of Cl(-) in PSII [Popelkova, H., et al. (2008) Biochemistry 47, 12593], PsbO influences the ability of Cl(-) to resist OH(-)-induced release from its site in the OEC. Preventing inhibition by OH(-) allows for normal (short) lifetimes of the S(2) and S(3) states in darkness [Roose, J. L., et al. (2011) Biochemistry 50, 5988] and for maximal steady-state activity by PSII. The data presented here indicate that activation of H(2)O oxidation occurs with a pK(a) of ∼6.5, which could be a function of deprotonation of one or more amino acid residues that reside near the OEC active site on the D1 and CP43 intrinsic subunits of the PSII reaction center.

Abstract
Chloride-dependent α-amylases, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and photosystem II (PSII) are activated by bound chloride. Chloride-binding sites in these enzymes contain a positively charged Arg or Lys residue crucial for chloride binding. In α-amylases and ACE, removal of chloride from the binding site triggers formation of a salt bridge between the positively charged Arg or Lys residue involved in chloride binding and a nearby carboxylate residue. The mechanism for chloride activation in ACE and chloride-dependent α-amylases is 2-fold: (i) correctly positioning catalytic residues or other residues involved in stabilizing the enzyme-substrate complex and (ii) fine-tuning of the pKa of a catalytic residue. By using examples of how chloride activates α-amylases and ACE, we can gain insight into the potential mechanisms by which chloride functions in PSII. Recent structural evidence from cyanobacterial PSII indicates that there is at least one chloride-binding site in the vicinity of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Here we propose that, in the absence of chloride, a salt bridge between D2:K317 and D1:D61 (and/or D1:E333) is formed. This can cause a conformational shift of D1:D61 and lower the pKa of this residue, making it an inefficient proton acceptor during the S-state cycle. Movement of the D1:E333 ligand and the adjacent D1:H332 ligand due to chloride removal could also explain the observed change in the magnetic properties of the manganese cluster in the OEC upon chloride depletion.

Abstract
The dark-stable multiline EPR signal of photosystem II (PSII) is associated with a slow-decaying S(2) state that is due to Ca(2+) loss from the oxygen evolving complex. Formation of the signal was observed in intact PSII in the presence of 100-250 mM NaCl at pH 5.5. Both moderately high NaCl concentration and decreased pH were required for its appearance in intact PSII. It was estimated that only a portion of oxygen evolving complexes was responsible for the signal (about 20% in 250 mM NaCl), based on the loss of the normal S(2)-state multiline signal. The formation of the dark-stable multiline signal in intact PSII at pH 5.5 could be reversed by addition of 15 mM Ca(2+) in the presence of moderately high NaCl, confirming that it was the absence of Ca(2+) that led to its appearance. Formation of the dark-stable multiline signal in NaCl-washed PSII, which lacks the PsbP (23 kDa) and PsbQ (17 kDa) subunits, was observed in about 80% of the sample in the presence of 150 mM NaCl at pH 5.5, but some signal was also observed under normal buffer conditions. In both intact and NaCl-washed PSII, the S(2)Y(Z). signal, which is also characteristic of Ca(2+) depletion, appeared upon subsequent illumination. Formation of the dark-stable multiline signal took place in the absence of Ca(2+) chelator or polycarboxylic acids, indicating that the signal did not require their direct binding as has been proposed previously. The conditions used here were milder than those used to produce the signal in previous studies and included a preillumination protocol to maximize the dark-stable S(2) state. Based on these conditions, it is suggested that Ca(2+) release occurred through protonation of key residues that coordinate Ca(2+) at low pH, followed by displacement of Ca(2+) with Na(+) by mass action at the moderately high NaCl concentration.

Abstract
Photosystem II (PSII), the light-absorbing complex of photosynthesis that evolves oxygen, requires chloride for activation of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC). In this study, fluoride was characterized as an inhibitor of Cl(-)-activated oxygen evolution in higher plant PSII. It was confirmed to be primarily a competitive inhibitor in intact PSII, with Cl(-)-competitive inhibition constant K(i) = 2 mM and uncompetitive inhibition constant K'(1) = 79 mM. A pH dependence study showed that fluoride inhibition was more pronounced at lower pH values. In order to determine the location of the fluoride effect, PSII preparations lacking various amounts of the PsbQ subunit were prepared. The competitive F(-) inhibition constant and the Michaelis constant for Cl(-) activation increased with loss of the PsbQ subunit, while the uncompetitive F(-) inhibition constant was relatively insensitive to loss of PsbQ. The S(2) state EPR signals from PSII lacking PsbQ responded to Ca(2+) and Cl(-) removal and to F(-) treatment similar to intact PSII, with enhancement of the g = 4.1 signal and suppression of the multiline signal, but the effects were more pronounced in PSII lacking PsbQ. Together, these results support the interpretation that the PsbQ subunit has a role in retaining anions within the OEC.

Abstract
In oxygenic photosynthesis, photosystem II (PSII) is the multisubunit membrane protein responsible for the oxidation of water to O2 and the reduction of plastoquinone to plastoquinol. One electron charge separation in the PSII reaction center is coupled to sequential oxidation reactions at the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC), which is composed of four manganese ions and one calcium ion. The sequentially oxidized forms of the OEC are referred to as the S(n) states. S(1) is the dark-adapted state of the OEC. Flash-induced oxygen production oscillates with period four and occurs during the S(3) to S(0) transition. Chloride plays an important, but poorly understood role in photosynthetic water oxidation. Chloride removal is known to block manganese oxidation during the S(2) to S(3) transition. In this work, we have used azide as a probe of proton transfer reactions in PSII. PSII was sulfate-treated to deplete chloride and then treated with azide. Steady state oxygen evolution measurements demonstrate that azide inhibits oxygen evolution in a chloride-dependent manner and that azide is a mixed or noncompetitive inhibitor. This result is consistent with two azide binding sites, one at which azide competes with chloride and one at which azide and chloride do not compete. At pH 7.5, the K(i) for the competing site was estimated as 1 mM, and the K(i)' for the uncompetitive site was estimated as 8 mM. Vibrational spectroscopy was then used to monitor perturbations in the frequency and amplitude of the azide antisymmetric stretching band. These changes were induced by laser-induced charge separation in the PSII reaction center. The results suggest that azide is involved in proton transfer reactions, which occur before manganese oxidation, on the donor side of chloride-depleted PSII.

Abstract
This minireview summarizes the current state of knowledge concerning the role of Cl(-) in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII). The model that proposes that Cl(-) is a Mn ligand is discussed in light of more recent work. Studies of Cl(-) specificity, stoichiometry, kinetics, and retention by extrinsic polypeptides are discussed, as are the results that fail to detect Cl(-) ligation to Mn and results that show a lack of a requirement for Cl(-) in PSII-catalyzed H(2)O oxidation. Mutagenesis experiments in cyanobacteria and higher plants that produce evidence for a correlation between Cl(-) retention and stable interactions among intrinsic and extrinsic polypeptides are summarized, and spectroscopic data on the interaction between PSII and Cl(-) are discussed. Lastly, the question of the site of Cl(-) action in PSII is discussed in connection with the current crystal structures of the enzyme.

Abstract
Photosystem II (PSII) catalyzes the oxidation of water to O2 at the manganese-containing, oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Photoexcitation of PSII results in the oxidation of the OEC; four sequential oxidation reactions are required for the generation and release of molecular oxygen. Therefore, with flash illumination, the OEC cycles among five Sn states. Chloride depletion inhibits O2 evolution. However, the binding site of chloride in the OEC is not known, and the role of chloride in oxygen evolution has not as yet been elucidated. We have employed reaction-induced FT-IR spectroscopy and selective flash excitation, which cycles PSII samples through the S state transitions. On the time scale employed, these FT-IR difference spectra reflect long-lived structural changes in the OEC. Bromide substitution supports oxygen evolution and was used to identify vibrational bands arising from structural changes at the chloride-binding site. Contributions to the vibrational spectrum from bromide-sensitive bands were observed on each flash. Sulfate treatment led to an elimination of oxygen evolution activity and of the FT-IR spectra assigned to the S3 to S0 (third flash) and S0 to S1 transitions (fourth flash). However, sulfate treatment changed, but did not eliminate, the FT-IR spectra obtained with the first and second flashes. Solvent isotope exchange in chloride-exchanged samples suggests flash-dependent structural changes, which alter protein dynamics during the S state cycle.

Abstract
Disagreement has remained about the spin state origin of the g = 4.1 EPR signal observed at X-band (9 GHz) from the S2 oxidation state of the Mn cluster of Photosystem II. In this study, the S2 state of PSII-enriched membrane fragments was examined at Q-band (34 GHz), with special interest in low-field signals. Light-induced signals at g = 3.1 and g = 4.6 were observed. The intensity of the signal at g = 3.1 was enhanced by the presence of F- and suppressed by the presence of 5% ethanol, indicating that it was from the same spin system as the X-band signal at g = 4.1. The Q-band signal at g = 4.6 was also enhanced by F-, but not suppressed by 5% ethanol, making its identity less clear. Although it can be accounted for by the same spin system, other sources for the signal are considered. The observation of the signal at g = 3.1 agrees well with a previous study at 15.5 GHz, in which the X-band g = 4.1 signal was proposed to arise from the middle Kramers doublet of a near rhombic S = 5/2 system. Zero-field splitting values of D = 0.455 cm(-1) and E/D = 0.25 are used to simulate the spectra.

Abstract
Methyl phosphite ((CH(3)O)P(H)(O)(2)(-); MeOPH) and methylethyl phosphate ((CH(3)O)P(OCH(2)CH(3))(O)(2)(-); MEP) are two members of a class of anionic ligands whose (31)P T(2) relaxation rates are remarkably sensitive to paramagnetic metal ions. The temperature dependence of the (31)P NMR line broadenings caused by the Mn(H(2)O)(6)(2+) ion and a water-soluble manganese(III) porphyrin (Mn(III)TMPyP(5+)) indicates that the extent of paramagnetic relaxation enhancement is a measure of the rate at which the anionic probes come into physical contact with the paramagnetic center (i.e., enter the inner coordination shell); that is, piDeltanu(par) = k(assn)[M], where Deltanu(par) is the difference between the line widths of the resonance in paramagnetic and diamagnetic solutions, and k(assn) is the second-order rate constant for association of the phosphorus ligand with the metal, M. Comparison of the (31)P T(1) and T(2) relaxation enhancements shows that rapid T(2) relaxation by the metal ion is caused by scalar interaction with the electronic spin. Relaxation of the phosphorus-bound proton of MeOPH ((1)H-P) by Mn(III)TMPyP(5+) displayed intermediate exchange kinetics over much of the observable temperature range. The field strength dependence of (1)H-P T(2) enhancement and the independence of the (31)P T(2) support these assertions. As in the case of the (31)P T(2), the (1)H-P T(2) relaxation enhancement results from scalar interaction with the electronic spin. The scalar coupling interpretation of the NMR data is supported by a pulsed EPR study of the interactions of Mn(H(2)O)(6)(2+) with the P-deuterated analogue of methyl phosphite, CH(3)OP((2)H)(O)(2)(-). The electron to (31)P and (2)H nuclear scalar coupling constants were found to be 4.6 and 0.10 MHz, respectively. In contrast, the effects of paramagnetic ions on the methoxy and ethoxy (1)H resonances of MeOPH and MEP are weak, and the evidence suggests that relaxation of these nuclei occurs by a dipolar mechanism. The wide variation in the relaxation sensitivities of the (1)H and (31)P nuclei of MeOPH and MEP permits us to study how differences in the strengths of the interactions between an observed nucleus and a paramagnetic center affect NMR T(2) relaxations. We propose that these anion ligand probes may be used to study ligand-exchange reactivities of manganese complexes without requiring variable temperature studies. The (31)P T(2) is determined by chemical association kinetics when the following condition is met: (T(2M,P)/T(2M,H))(Deltanu(P)/Deltanu(HP) - 1) < 0.2 where T(2M,P) and T(2M,H) are the transverse relaxation times of the (31)P and (1)H nuclei when the probe is bound to the metal, and Deltanu(P) and Deltanu(HP) are the paramagnetic line broadenings of the (31)P and (1)H-P nuclei, respectively. We assert that the ratio T(2M,P)/T(2M,H) can be estimated for a general metal complex using the results of EPR and NMR experiments.
