英文摘要The secondary electron donor, Tyr(Z), is implicated in tuning the primary charge separation and the water oxidation in active photosystem 11 (PSII). Two types of mechanisms have been proposed to explain the function of Tyr(Z). One is that Tyr(Z) tunes the water oxidation through the direct interaction with substrate water rnolecules the other is that Tyr(Z) is located in a hydrophobic environment without interacting with H2O, and controls the water oxidation by tuning the strength of the hydrogen bond between Tyr(Z) and His190. Here, methanol was used as a probe to study the possible relationship between Tyr(Z) and H2O by monitoring the Tyr(Z) oxidation and Tyr(Z)* reduction at cryogenic temperatures with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The oxidation of Tyr(Z) and reduction of Tyr(Z)* in both S-2 and S-0 states at 10 K were accelerated by addition of a small amount of methanol (6%). Theoretical studies indicate that Tyr oxidation becomes more difficult if it interacts directly with the methanol molecule; while the decrease of the polarity of its environment accelerates the oxidation of Tyr. Accordingly, CH3OH does not directly interact with Tyr(Z) in active PSII, and the accelerative effect of methanol is caused by the strength increase of the hydrogen bond between Tyr(Z) and His 190, resulting from the decrease of polarity of their environment after the displacement of H2O by CH3OH inside PSII Considering the similarity between methanol and water, the results in this study support the model in which Tyr(Z) does not interact with H2O in active PSII.
