Water oxidation to dioxygen in photosynthesis is catalyzed by a Mn(4)Ca cluster with O bridging in Photosystem II (PS II) of plants, algae and cyanobacteria. A variety of spectroscopic methods have been applied to analyzing the participatio...

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in studies of catalytic metal clusters in metalloproteins based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) hybrid methods. These methods explicitly ...

Hydraphiles are synthetic ionophores that were designed to mimic some properties of protein channels that conduct such cations as sodium. They use macrocyclic (crown) polyethers as amphiphilic headgroups and as entry and exit portals. Their...

Recent advances in the study of the Oxygen Evolving Complex (OEC) of Photosystem II (PSII) include structural information attained from several X-ray crystallographic (XRD) and spectroscopic (XANES and EXAFS) investigations. The possible st...

Photosynthetic water oxidation is catalyzed by a unique Mn(4)Ca cluster in Photosystem II. The ligation environment of the Mn(4)Ca cluster optimizes the cluster's reactivity at each step in the catalytic cycle and minimizes the release of t...
