Substantial amounts of iron have been shown by Mössbauer spectroscopy to be present in Photosystem-I preparations from the blue-green alga Chlorogloeta fritschii. Changes in the spectra on chemical reduction provide evidence that some of this iron is very similar to that found in the 4Fe-4S centres of ferredoxins. Such reduced samples also show e.p.r. signals consistent with maximum reduction of iron-sulphur centres A and B of Photosystem I. An unchanged component in the spectra indicates, assuming all centres A and B are reduced, the presence of another iron-containing species.
穆斯堡尔光谱显示,蓝绿藻弗里茨绿球藻的光系统I制剂中存在大量铁。化学还原时光谱的变化提供了证据,表明其中一些铁与铁氧化还原蛋白4Fe-4S中心中的铁非常相似。这种还原后的样品还显示出与光系统I的铁硫中心A和B的最大还原一致的电子顺磁共振信号。光谱中一个未改变的成分表明,假设所有中心A和B都被还原,存在另一种含铁物种。
