Abstract excerpt
Water oxidation in photosystem II (PSII) is still insufficiently understood and is assumed to involve HCO(3)(-). A Chlamydomonas mutant lacking a carbonic anhydrase associated with the PSII donor side shows impaired O(2) evolution in the absence of HCO(3)(-). The O(2) evolution for saturating, co...
