摘要
Time-resolved EPR oximetry has been used to determine the oxygen release kinetics in spinach thylakoids and PSII membranes. We observe release kinetics with half-times of similar to 0.85 and similar to 145 ms for thylakoids and PSII membranes, respectively, which are in close agreement with the EPR determined Y-z decay kinetics for the S-3 --> --> S-0 transition in these systems. The results show conclusively that water-oxygen chemistry is not a rate-limiting step in the donor side of PSII under normal turnover conditions. By analyzing the oxygen release kinetics in thylakoids under nonphysiological, but still functionally competent conditions (low pH or high salt), we observed an initial delay in the O-2 release of up to 200 mu s following flash turnover from the; S-3 state. This is the first direct indication of a probable quasi-stable intermediate in the S-3 --> --> S-0 turnover of PSII, possibly representing the putative S-4 state. Under conditions more closely approaching physiological, no such delay was resolved, indicating that the S-4 --> O-2 transition occurs within 50 mu s under such circumstances. Two possible reaction sequences for O-2 formation consistent: with these and other data are discussed. It is suggested that the more probable form of "S-4" is in fact the S-3 + Y-z(.) combination, which must undergo some molecular rearrangement on the tens to hundreds of microseconds time scale before O-2 formation chemistry occurs.
