Abstract

The rubA gene was insertionally inactivated in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, and the properties of photosystem I complexes were characterized spectroscopically. X-band EPR spectroscopy at low temperature shows that the three terminal iron-sulfur clusters, F(X), F(A), and F(B), are missing in whole cells, thylakoids, and photosystem (PS) I complexes of the rubA mutant. The flash-induced decay kinetics of both P700(+) in the visible and A(1)- in the near-UV show that charge recombination occurs between P700(+) and A(1)- in both thylakoids and PS I complexes. The spin-polarized EPR signal at room temperature from PS I complexes also indicates that forward electron transfer does not occur beyond A(1). In agreement, the spin-polarized X-band EPR spectrum of P700(+) A(1)- at low temperature shows that an electron cycle between A(1)- and P700(+) occurs in a much larger fraction of PS I complexes than in the wild-type, wherein a relatively large fraction of the electrons promoted are irreversibly transferred to [F(A)/F(B)]. The electron spin polarization pattern shows that the orientation of phylloquinone in the PS I complexes is identical to that of the wild type, and out-of-phase, spin-echo modulation spectroscopy shows the same P700(+...Continue Reading
