Abstract excerpt
Bicarbonate anions have a strong positive influence on the electron and proton transfers in photosystem II (PS II). It has been suggested that bicarbonate binds to the non-heme iron and the QB binding niche of the PS II reaction center. To investigate the potential amino acid binding environment of bicarbonate, an arginine residue (R269) of the D1 protein of PS II of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was mutated into a...
