Differential kinetic absorption spectra were measured during actinic illumination of photosystem II reaction centres and core complexes in the presence of electron acceptors silicomolybdate and ferricyanide. The spectra of samples with ferricyanide differ from those with both ferricyanide and silicomolybdate. Near-infrared spectra show temporary β-carotene and peripheral chlorophyll oxidation during room temperature actinic illumination. Peripheral chlorophyll is photooxidized even after decay of β-carotene oxidation activity and significant reduction of β-carotene content in both reaction centres and photosystem II core complexes. Besides, new carotenoid cation is observed after about 1 s of actinic illumination in the reaction centres when silicomolybdate is present. Similar result was observed in PSII core complexes. HPLC analyses of illuminated reaction centres reveal several novel carotenoids, whereas no new carotenoid species were observed in HPLC of illuminated core complexes. Our data support the proposal that pigments of inner antenna are a sink of cations originating in the photosystem II reaction centre.
