Effect of Mn cluster on the formation of Superoxide radicals in photoinhibition of photosystem II
摘要:
To further realize the action of superoxide radicals (O-2(-.)) in photoinhibition of photosystem II (PS II), we employed 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) as a spin trap, associated with EPR spectroscopy, to study the effect of illumination time on O-2(-.) formation during high light photoinhibition in PS II membranes and Mn-depleted PS II membranes. Results indicated that the removal of Mn cluster from PS II membranes has a strong influence on the dynamics of superoxide formation. The relative mechanism was also discussed. These novel findings may further promote the studies of the structure and function of PS II and the mechanism of photoinhibition.

Several cysteinyl peptides have been synthesised and shown to be reversible competitive inhibitors of the Bacillus cereus metallo-beta -lactamase. The pH dependence of pK(i) indicates that the thiol anion displaces hydroxide ion from the active site zinc(II). D,D-Peptides bind to the enzyme better than other diastereoisomers, which is compatible with the predicted stereochemistry of the active site. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
