The photochemistry of the isolated Photosystem II reaction-centre core from pea and the green alga Scenedesmus was examined by e.s.r. Two types of triplet spectrum were observed in addition to the spin-polarized reaction-centre triplet previously identified. The additional triplet formed on continuous illumination at 4.2 K was attributed to a monomeric phaeophytin molecule. The second triplet, which was stable in the dark at 4.2 K following illumination, was assigned to the radical pair Donor+I-. This provides evidence that an electron donor to chlorophyll P680 is present on the polypeptide D1-polypeptide D2-cytochrome b-559 core complex.
通过电子自旋共振(e.s.r.)研究了从豌豆和绿藻栅藻中分离出的光系统II反应中心核心的光化学性质。除了先前鉴定出的自旋极化反应中心三重态外,还观察到两种类型的三重态光谱。在4.2 K持续光照下形成的额外三重态归因于单体脱镁叶绿素分子。第二个三重态在光照后于4.2 K黑暗中稳定,被指定为自由基对供体 +I-。这提供了证据,表明在多肽D1 - 多肽D2 - 细胞色素b - 559核心复合物上存在叶绿素P680的电子供体。
