Abstract excerpt
One prominent difference between the photosystem II (PSII) reaction center protein D1' in Synechocystis 6803 and normal D1 is the replacement of Phe-186 in D1 with leucine in D1'. Mutants of Synechocystis 6803 producing only D1', or containing engineered D1 proteins with Phe-186 substitutions, were analyzed by 77 K fluorescence emission spectra, chlorophyll a fluorescence induction yield and decay kinetics, and...
