Trapping Tyrosine Z : Exploring the Relay between Photochemistry and Water Oxidation in Photosystem II
Photosystem II is unique! It remains the only enzyme that can oxidize water using light as energy input. Water oxidation in photosystem II is catalyzed by the CaMn4 cluster. The electrons extracted from the CaMn4 cluster are transferred to P680+ via the tyrosine residue D1-Tyr161 (YZ). Favorable oxi...
