Abstract excerpt
Photosystem II preparations poised in the S(2)...Q(A) state produce no detectable intermediate during straightforward illumination at liquid helium temperatures. However, upon flash illumination in the range of 77-190 K, they produce a transient state which at -10 degrees C advances to S(3) or after rapid cooling to 10 K gives rise to a 116 G wide metalloradical EPR signal. The latter decays with half-times on...
