Fotosystem II
The last milliseconds on the photosynthetic water-oxidation clock
The oxygen we breathe is produced by plants, algae and cyanobacteria, which capture sunlight to use its energy to drive the formation of oxygen by splitting water at a metal cluster in the enzyme Photosystem II. Now, scientists have managed to uncover the final, crucial steps in the catalytic mechanism that lead to the release of oxygen. Johannes Messinger Group
