Photosystem II (PSII) is a photo-oxidoreductase that harnesses light energy to use water to make fuel. Water oxidation occurs at a metal cluster in the active site called the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). Understanding PSII function has provided design principles for synthetic solar fuel catalysts; however, the details of water oxidation are obscured by the multiple states through which the mechanism proceeds, differences between species, and lability of the OEC. To better understand PSII function, we solved its structure from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. We observe significant differences compared with PSII from thermophilic cyanobacteria that highlight the need for reexamination of previous data using this structure for interpretation. The structure also provides a platform for studies of site-directed mutations of PSII. Photosystem II (PSII) enables global-scale, light-driven water oxidation. Genetic manipulation of PSII from the mesophilic cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 has provided insights into the mechanism of water oxidation; however, the lack of a high-resolution structure of oxygen-evolving PSII from this organism has limited the interpretation of biophysical data to models based on structures of thermophilic cyanobacterial PSII. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of PSII from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 at 1.93-Å resolution. A number of differences are observed relative to thermophilic PSII structures, including the following: the extrinsic subunit PsbQ is maintained, the C terminus of the D1 subunit is flexible, some waters near the active site are partially occupied, and differences in the PsbV subunit block the Large (O1) water channel. These features strongly influence the structural picture of PSII, especially as it pertains to the mechanism of water oxidation.
