Revised Manuscript Received June 28, 1994* abstract: Saturation-recovery and progressive microwave power saturation EPR spectroscopies have been used to probe the location of the chlorophyllz" 1"(Chlz+) radical species in-depleted photosystem II (PSII). The spin-lattice relaxation transients of Chlz+ were non-single-exponential due to a dipole-dipole interaction with one of the other paramagnetic centers inPSII. Measurements on CN_-treated,-depleted PSII membrane samples, in which the non-heme Fe (II) is converted into its low-spin, diamagnetic form, confirmed that the non-heme Fe (II) caused the dipolar relaxation enhancement of Chlz+. The saturation-recovery EPR data were fit to a dipolar model [Hirsh, DJ, Beck, W. F., Innes, J. B., & Brudvig, G. W.(1992) Biochemistry 31, 532] which takes into account the isotropic (scalar) and orientation-dependent (dipolar) contributions to the spin-lattice relaxation of the radical. The temperature dependence of the dipolar rate constants of Chlz" 1" was identical to the temperature dependencies recently observed for the stable tyrosine radical, Yd*, and the special pair bacteriochlorophyll radical,(BChla) 2+, in PSII and in reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, respectively. Because the non-heme Fe (II) is known to cause a dipolar relaxation enhancement of the radicalsin both of the latter cases, this result provides further evidence that the non-heme Fe (II) causes the dipolar relaxation enhancement of Chlz" 1" and, moreover, demonstrates that the magnetic properties of the non-heme Fe (II) in PSII and in reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides are very similar. By using the known Fe (II)-(BChla) 2+ distance for calibration, we estimate the Fe (II)-Chlz+ distance to be 39.5±2.5 Á. The theory of dipolar relaxation enhancement of a free radical caused by exogenous Dy3+ complexes [Innes, J. B., & Brudvig, G. W.(1989) Biochemistry28, 1116] has also been applied to determine the location of Chlz" 1" relative to the PSII protein surfaces. Chlz" 1" was found to be located at approximately equaldistances from both the luminal and stromal protein surfaces in extrinsic polypeptide-depleted PSII membranes. These results provide the first direct evidence against the assignment of Chlz to a Chi monomer analogous to the “voyeur” BChl in the bacterial reaction center and point to histidines-118 in the DI and D2 proteins as potential ligands of Chlz-Photosystem II (PSII) is a multicomponent membrane-spanning complex of proteins and chromophores whichutilizes light energy to initiate electron-transferreactions and oxidize water to dioxygen. Its oxidized primary electron donor, P680+[a special chlorophyll (Chi)], is the most powerful oxidant in photosynthesis, having a reduction potential high enoughto oxidize its own antenna chlorophyll [Em is estimated to be~ 1.12 V (Klimov et al., 1980)]. The major electron-donation pathway in PSII is from a tetranuclear Mn cluster through a tyrosine residue known as Yz (Tyr-161 of the D1 polypeptide) to P680+, and it involves the catalyzed oxidation of H2O to dioxygen. In addition to this path, there exist at least two alternative electron donors to P680+: cytochrome¿> 559(cyt¿ 559) and a redox-active tyrosine, Yo (Tyr-160oftheD2 polypeptide). Recent studies
