The process of photoactivation, the assembly of a functional water-oxidizing complex (WOC) from the apoproteins of photosystem II of higher plants and inorganic cofactors (Mn2+, Ca2+, and Cl-), was known from earlier works to be a two-step kinetic process, requiring two light-induced processes separated by a slower dark period. However, these steps had not been directly resolved in any kinetic experiment, until development of an ultrasensitive polarographic O2electrode and synthesis of an improved chelator for cofactor removal allowed direct kinetic resolution of the first pre-steady state intermediate [Ananyev, G. M. & Dismukes, G. C. (1996a)Biochemistry 35, 4102−4109]. Herein, the dependence of the rates of each of the first two light steps and the dark step of photoactivation was directly determined in spinach PSII membranes over a range of calcium and manganese concentrations at least 10-fold lower than those possible using commercial O2electrodes. The following results were obtained. (1) One Mn2+ion binds and is photooxidized to Mn3+at a high-affinity site, forming the first light-induced intermediate, IM1. Formation of IM1is coupled to the dissociation of a bound Ca2+ion either located in the Mn site or coupled to it. (2) The inhibition constant for Ca2+dissociation from this site is equal to 1.5 mM. (3) The dissociation constant of Mn2+at this high-affinity site is equal to 8 μM at the optimum calcium concentration for O2-evolving activity of 8 mM, in agreement with the high-affinity site for electron donation to PSII. (4) Prior to the next photolytic step, one Ca2+ion must bind at its effector site so that stable photooxidation of a second Mn2+ion can occur, forming the second light-induced intermediate, IM2. This dark process is the rate-determining step. (5) The Michaelis constant for recovery of O2evolution by Ca2+binding at this effector site (Km) is equal to 1.4 mM, a value that is the same as that measured for the calcium requirement for O2evolution in intact PSII. (6) The low quantum yield for the formation of IM2from IM1increases linearly with the duration of the dark period up to the longest period we could examine (10 s). Accordingly, the rate limitation in the second photolytic step originates from a slow calcium-induced dark rearrangement of the first intermediate, IM1, which we propose to be a protein conformational change that allows stable binding of the next Mn2+ion. We further propose that the single Ca2+ion which is required for assembly of the Mn4cluster is equivalent to the Ca2+ion which functions at the “gatekeeper” site in intact O2-evolving centers, where it plays a role in limiting substrate access to the Mn4cluster [Sivaraja, M., et al. (1989)Biochemistry 28, 9459−9464; Tso, J., et al., (1991)Biochemistry 30, 4734−4739]. A molecular model for photoactivation is proposed and discussed.
