Abstract excerpt

The D1-D2 heterodimer in the reaction center core of phototrophs binds the redox plastoquinone cofactors, Q(A) and Q(B), the terminal acceptors of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain in the photosystem II (PSII). This complex is the target of the herbicide atrazine, an environmental pollutant competitive inhibitor of Q(B) binding, and consequently it represents an excellent biomediator to develop...
