The biological generation of oxygen by the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II (PS II) is one of nature's most important reactions. The recent X-ray crystal structures, while limited by resolutions of 3.2-3.5 A, have located the electron density associated with the Mn4Ca cluster within the multiprotein PS II complex. Detailed structures critically depend on input from spectroscopic techniques, such as EXAFS and EPR/ENDOR, as the XRD resolution does not allow for accurate determination of the position of Mn/Ca or the bridging and terminal ligand atoms. The number and distances of Mn-Mn/Ca/ligand interactions determined from EXAFS provide important constraints for the structure of the Mn4Ca cluster. Here, we present data from a high-resolution EXAFS method using a novel multicrystal monochromator that show three short Mn-Mn distances between 2.7 and 2.8 A and, hence, the presence of three di-mu-oxo-bridged units in the Mn4Ca cluster. This result imposes clear limitations on the proposed structures based on spectroscopic and diffraction data and provides input for refining such structures. 相似文献

Density functional theory calculations are reported on a set of models of the water‐oxidising complex (WOC) of photosystem II (PSII), exploring structural features revealed in the most recent (1.9 Å resolution) X‐ray crystallographic studies of PSII. Crucially, we find that the variation in the Mn–Mn distances seen between the A and B monomers of this crystal structure can be entirely accounted for, in the low oxidation state (LOS) paradigm, by consideration of the interplay between two hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving proximate amino acid residues with the oxo bridges of the WOC, that is, His337 with O3 (which leads to a general elongation in the Mn–Mn distances between Mn1, Mn2 and Mn3) and Arg357 with O2 (which results in a specific elongation of the Mn2?Mn3 distance). 相似文献

A key component required for an understanding of the mechanism of the evolution of molecular oxygen by the photosynthetic oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) in photosystem II (PS II) is the knowledge of the structures of the Mn cluster in the OEC in each of its intermediate redox states, or S-states. In this paper, we report the first detailed structural characterization using Mn extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy of the Mn cluster of the OEC in the S(0) state, which exists immediately after the release of molecular oxygen. On the basis of the EXAFS spectroscopic results, the most likely interpretation is that one of the di-mu-oxo-bridged Mn-Mn moieties in the OEC has increased in distance from 2.7 A in the dark-stable S(1) state to 2.85 A in the S(0) state. Furthermore, curve fitting of the distance heterogeneity present in the EXAFS data from the S(0) state leads to the intriguing possibility that three di-mu-oxo-bridged Mn-Mn moieties may exist in the OEC instead of the two di-mu-oxo-bridged Mn-Mn moieties that are widely used in proposed structural models for the OEC. This possibility is developed using novel structural models for the Mn cluster in the OEC which are consistent with the structural information available from EXAFS and the recent X-ray crystallographic structure of PS II at 3.8 A resolution. 相似文献

High-spin molecules have been proposed as candidates for the storage of information at the molecular level. The electronic structure of two complex magnetic molecular systems, Mn 10 and Mn 19, is characterized by means of a computational study based on density functional theory. All the exchange interactions in the recently reported Mn 19 complex with the highest known spin value of 83/2, and in its highly symmetric Mn 10 parent compound, are ferromagnetic. In these complexes, there are two kinds of ferromagnetic coupling: the first one corresponds to Mn (II)-Mn (III) interactions through a double mu 2-alkoxo-mu 4-oxo bridge where the high coordination number of the Mn (II) cations results in long Mn (II)-O bond distances, while the second one involves Mn (III)-Mn (III) interactions through mu 2-alkoxo-mu 3-eta (1):eta (1):eta (1) azido bridging ligands with long Mn (III)-N distances due to a Jahn-Teller effect. 相似文献

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are reported for a set of model compounds intended to represent the structure of the Photosystem II (PSII) water oxidising complex (WOC) as determined by the recent 1.9 ? resolution single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) study of Umena et al. In contrast with several other theoretical studies addressing this structure, we find that it is not necessary to invoke photoreduction of the crystalline sample below the S(1)'resting state' in order to rationalise the observed WOC geometry. Our results are consistent with crystallised PSII in the S(1) state, with S(1) corresponding to either (Mn(III))(4) or (Mn(III))(2)(Mn(IV))(2) as required by the two competing paradigms for the WOC oxidation state pattern. Of these two paradigms, the 'low-oxidation-state' paradigm provides a better match for the crystal structure, with the comparatively long Mn(2)-Mn(3) distance in particular proving difficult to reconcile with the 'high-oxidation-state' model. Best agreement with the set of metal-metal distances is obtained with a S(1) model featuring μ-O, μ-OH bridging between Mn(3) and Mn(4) and deprotonation of one water ligand on Mn(4). Theoretical modelling of the 1.9 ? structure is an important step in assessing the validity of this recent crystal structure, with implications for our understanding of the mechanism of water oxidation by PSII. 相似文献

A novel one-dimensional manganese(Ⅱ) complex containing nitronyl nitroxide radical [Mn2(IM2-py)2(Ac)2((μ1.1-N3)(μ1,3-N3) . EtOH]n was synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group p21/n. Each Mn(Ⅱ) ion is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral environment. The two N atoms of the nitronyl nitroxide radical and the two O atoms of acetate ligands are in the equatorial plane, whereas the two different azido bridging ligands are in trans axial position. Mn(Ⅱ) ions are linked by nitrogen atom of μ1,1-azido and oxygen atoms of two carboxy groups to form a Mn-Mn unit. Mn-Mn units are linked by azido ligands through u1,3 bridging style to form a one-dimensional chain. The compound is connected by the coordination bonds,π-π interactions and hydrogen bonds as a three-dimensional structure. Magnetic susceptibility data support that there are stronger antiferromagnetic interactions between the radical and Mn(Ⅱ) ion, weak antiferromagnetic inter 相似文献

Great progress has been made in characterizing the water‐oxidizing complex (WOC) in photosystem II (PSII) with the publication of a 1.9 Å resolution X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and recently a 1.95 Å X‐ray free‐electron laser (XFEL) structure. However, these achievements are under threat because of perceived conflicts with other experimental data. For the earlier 1.9 Å structure, lack of agreement with extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data led to the notion that the WOC suffered from X‐ray photoreduction. In the recent 1.95 Å structure, Mn photoreduction is not an issue, but poor agreement with computational models which adopt the ‘high’ oxidation state paradigm, has again resulted in criticism of the structure on the basis of contamination with lower S states of the WOC. Here we use DFT modeling to show that the distinct WOC geometries in the 1.9 and 1.95 Å structures can be straightforwardly accounted for when the Mn oxidation states are consistent with the ‘low’ oxidation state paradigm. Remarkably, our calculations show that the two structures are tautomers, related by a single proton relocation. 相似文献

The heart of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II is a Mn4OxCa cluster that cycles through five different oxidation states (S0 to S4) during the light-driven water-splitting reaction cycle. In this study we interpret the recently obtained 55Mn hyperfine coupling constants of the S0 and S2 states of the OEC [Kulik et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127, 2392-2393] on the basis of Y-shaped spin-coupling schemes with up to four nonzero exchange coupling constants, J. This analysis rules out the presence of one or more Mn(II) ions in S0 in methanol (3%) containing samples and thereby establishes that the oxidation states of the manganese ions in S0 and S2 are, at 4 K, Mn4(III, III, III, IV) and Mn4(III, IV, IV, IV), respectively. By applying a "structure filter" that is based on the recently reported single-crystal EXAFS data on the Mn4OxCa cluster [Yano et al. Science 2006, 314, 821-825] we (i) show that this new structural model is fully consistent with EPR and 55Mn-ENDOR data, (ii) assign the Mn oxidation states to the individual Mn ions, and (iii) propose that the known shortening of one 2.85 A Mn-Mn distance in S0 to 2.75 A in S1 [Robblee et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 7459-7471] corresponds to a deprotonation of a mu-hydroxo bridge between MnA and MnB, i.e., between the outer Mn and its neighboring Mn of the mu3-oxo bridged moiety of the cluster. We summarize our results in a molecular model for the S0 --> S1 and S1 --> S2 transitions. 相似文献

Heterometallic Mn-Ca and Mn-Sr complexes have been prepared and employed as model complexes for Ca and Sr EXAFS spectral comparisons with the Oxygen-Evolving Complex (OEC) of Photosystem II (PS II); these have revealed similarities that support the presence of at least one O atom bridge between the Mn and Ca/Sr in the OEC. 相似文献

The preparation and properties of the first strontium-manganese molecular complex are described. The reaction of (NBu(n)4)[Mn4O2(O2CPh)9(H 2O)] (4Mn(III)) with Sr(ClO4)2 in MeCN/MeOH led to the isolation of [SrMn14O11(OMe)3(O2CPh)18(MeCN)2] ( 1; 13Mn(III), Mn(II)). The structure of 1 consists of two [Mn4O3(OMe)] cubane units attached to a central, near-planar, trinuclear [Mn3O4] unit, to which are also attached a Mn and a Sr above the plane and a [Mn2O(OMe)] rhomb below the plane. Peripheral ligation is provided by 18 bridging benzoate and two terminal MeCN groups. Variable-temperature and -field dc magnetization (M) data were collected in the 1.8-10 K and 0.1-4.0 T ranges and fit by matrix diagonalization methods to give S = 9/2, D = -0.50(5) cm(-1), and g = 1.88(10), where S is the ground-state spin and D is the axial zero-field splitting parameter. Magnetization versus dc field sweeps at various temperatures and scan rates exhibited hysteresis loops, confirming 1 to be a new single-molecule magnet. Because complex 1 is the initial molecular example of intimately associated Mn and Sr atoms, Sr EXAFS studies have been performed for the first time on a synthetic Sr-containing molecule. This has also allowed comparisons with the EXAFS data on the Sr-substituted water oxidizing complex (WOC) of Photosystem II (PS II), which contains a SrMn4 complex. 相似文献

The class Ic ribonucleotide reductase from Chlamydia trachomatis ( Ct) uses a stable Mn(IV)/Fe(III) cofactor to initiate nucleotide reduction by a free-radical mechanism. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used to postulate a structure for this cofactor. Fe and Mn K-edge EXAFS data yield an intermetallic distance of approximately 2.92 A. The Mn data also suggest the presence of a short 1.74 A Mn-O bond. These metrics are compared to the results of DFT calculations on 12 cofactor models derived from the crystal structure of the inactive Fe 2(III/III) form of the protein. Models are differentiated by the protonation states of their bridging and terminal OH X ligands as well as the location of the Mn(IV) ion (site 1 or 2). The models that agree best with experimental observation feature a mu-1,3-carboxylate bridge (E120), terminal solvent (H 2O/OH) to site 1, one mu-O bridge, and one mu-OH bridge. The site-placement of the metal ions cannot be discerned from the available data. 相似文献

Heterometallic linear tetramers [Mn(5-R-saltmen)Ni(pao)(bpy)(2)](2)(ClO(4))(4) (5-R-saltmen(2-) = N,N'-1,1,2,2-tetramethylethylene bis(5-R-salicylideneiminate); pao(-) = pyridine-2-aldoximate; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, R = H, 1; Cl, 2; Br, 3; MeO, 4) have been synthesized and structurally characterized. These compounds exhibit a [Ni(II)-NO-Mn(III)-(O)(2)-Mn(III)-ON-Ni(II)] skeleton where -ON- is an oximate bridge between Mn(III) and Ni(II) ions and -(O)(2)- is a bi-phenolate bridge between Mn(III) ions. These tetramers can be seen as oligomeric units of the heterometallic Mn(III)(2)-Ni(II) chain observed in a family of single-chain magnets (Clérac, R.; Miyasaka, H.; Yamashita, M.; Coulon, C. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 12837. Miyasaka, H.; Clérac, R.; Mizushima, K.; Sugiura, K.; Yamashita, M.; Wernsdorfer, W.; Coulon, C. Inorg. Chem. 2003, 42, 8203.). Magnetic measurements on these tetramers confirm the nature of the magnetic interactions reported for the Mn(III)(2)-Ni(II) chains: a strong antiferromagnetic Mn(III)/Ni(II) coupling via the oximate bridge (J(Ni-Mn) ranges from -23.7 to -26.1 K) and a weak ferromagnetic Mn(III)/Mn(III) coupling through the bi-phenolate bridge (J(Mn-Mn) ranges from +0.4 to +0.9 K). These magnetic interactions lead to tetramers with an S = 2 ground state. 相似文献

This paper investigates the mechanism of water splitting in photosystem II (PSII) as described by chemically sensible models of the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) in the S0-S4 states. The reaction is the paradigm for engineering direct solar fuel production systems since it is driven by solar light and the catalyst involves inexpensive and abundant metals (calcium and manganese). Molecular models of the OEC Mn3CaO4Mn catalytic cluster are constructed by explicitly considering the perturbational influence of the surrounding protein environment according to state-of-the-art quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) hybrid methods, in conjunction with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) structure of PSII from the cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus. The resulting models are validated through direct comparisons with high-resolution extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopic data. Structures of the S3, S4, and S0 states include an additional mu-oxo bridge between Mn(3) and Mn(4), not present in XRD structures, found to be essential for the deprotonation of substrate water molecules. The structures of reaction intermediates suggest a detailed mechanism of dioxygen evolution based on changes in oxidization and protonation states and structural rearrangements of the oxomanganese cluster and surrounding water molecules. The catalytic reaction is consistent with substrate water molecules coordinated as terminal ligands to Mn(4) and calcium and requires the formation of an oxyl radical by deprotonation of the substrate water molecule ligated to Mn(4) and the accumulation of four oxidizing equivalents. The oxyl radical is susceptible to nucleophilic attack by a substrate water molecule initially coordinated to calcium and activated by two basic species, including CP43-R357 and the mu-oxo bridge between Mn(3) and Mn(4). The reaction is concerted with water ligand exchange, swapping the activated water by a water molecule in the second coordination shell of calcium. 相似文献

A theoretical framework is presented for analysis of all three "multiline" EPR spectra (MLS) arising from the tetramanganese (Mn(4)) cluster in the S(2) oxidation state of the photosynthetic water oxidizing complex (WOC). Accurate simulations are presented which include anisotropy of the g and (four) (55)Mn hyperfine tensors, chosen according to a database of (55)Mn(III) and (55)Mn(IV) hyperfine tensors obtained previously using unbiased least-squares spectral fitting routines. In view of the large (30%) anisotropy common to Mn(III) hyperfine tensors in all complexes, previous MLS simulations which have assumed isotropic hyperfine constants have required physically unrealistic parameters. A simple model is found which offers good simulations of both the native "19-21-line" MLS and the "26-line" NH(3)-bound form of the MLS. Both a dimer-of-dimers and distorted-trigonal magnetic models are examined to describe the symmetry of the Heisenberg exchange interactions within the Mn(4) cluster and thus define the initial electronic basis states of the cluster. The effect of rhombic symmetry distortions is explicitly considered. Both magnetic models correspond to one of several possible structural models for the Mn(4) cluster proposed independently from Mn EXAFS studies. Simulated MLS were constructed for each of the eight (or seven) doublet states of the Mn(4) cluster in the WOC for the two viable oxidation models (3Mn(III)-1Mn(IV) or 3Mn(IV)-1Mn(III)), and using a wide range of axial Mn hyperfine tensors, with either coaxial or orthogonal tensor alignments. We find accurate simulations using the 3Mn(III)-1Mn(IV) oxidation model. In the dimer-of-dimers coupling model, the spin state conversion between two doublet states |S(12),S(34),S(T)|(7)/(2),4,(1)/(2)> and |(7)/(2),3,(1)/(2)> is found to explain the large (25%) contraction in the hyperfine splitting observed upon conversion from the native MLS to the NH(3)-bound MLS. Stabilization of this excited state as the new ground state is caused by change in the intermanganese exchange coupling, without appreciable change in the intrinsic hyperfine tensors. The lack of good simulations of the Ca(2+)-depleted MLS suggests that Ca(2+)-depletion changes both Mn ligation and intermanganese exchange coupling. The 3Mn(IV)-1Mn(III) oxidation model is disfavored because only approximate simulations could be found for the native MLS and no agreement with the NH(3)-bound MLS was obtained. The scalar part of the hyperfine tensors for both Mn(III) and Mn(IV) ions were found to approximate (+/-5%) the values for the dimanganese(III,IV) catalase enzyme, suggesting similar overall ligand types. However, the large (30%) anisotropic part of the Mn(III) hyperfine interaction is opposite in sign to that found in all tetragonally extended six-coordinate Mn(III) ions (i.e., the usual Jahn-Teller splitting). The distribution of spin density from the high-spin d(4) electron configuration of each Mn(III) ion corresponds to a flattened (oblate) ellipsoid. This electronic distribution is favored in five-coordinate ligand fields having trigonally compressed bipyramidal geometry, but it could also arise, in principle, in strained six-coordinate ligand fields having tetragonally compressed geometry, i.e. [Mn(2)(&mgr;-O)](4+) (reverse Jahn-Teller distortion). The resulting valence electronic configurations are described as e'(2)e"(2) and (d(pi))(3)(d(x)()()2(-)(y)()()2)(1), respectively, in contrast to the (d(pi))(3)(d(z)()()2)(1) configuration common to unstrained six-coordinate tetragonally-extended Mn(III) ions, such as found in the [Mn(2)(&mgr;-O)(2)](3+) core in several synthetic dimers and catalase. Both of the former geometries predict strongly oxidizing Mn(III) ions, thereby suggesting a structural basis for the oxidative reactivity of the Mn(4) cluster in the WOC. The magnetic model needed to explain the MLS is not readily reconciled with the simplest structural and electronic models deduced from EXAFS studies of the WOC. 相似文献

Mn(bzimpy)2(1)[bzimpy=2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine],a mononuclear manganese(Ⅱ)complex,was synthesized by the reaction of Mn(OOCMe)2 with bzimpy in absolute ethanol.The complex was structurally characterized by elemental analysis,cyclic voltammetry,and X-ray crystallography.In the complex,the manganese-nitrogen distances were different,and the geometry and the metal ion environment showed the distortion.The cyclic voltammetric measurements have been performed to assess its redox characteristics.The presence of oxidation wave at 0.62V and 0.081V vs.SCE or 0.8V and 1.0v vs.NHE suggested that this complex could catalyze the oxidation of water,therefore,simulate the water-oxidizing complex(WOC) of photosystem Ⅱ (PS Ⅱ).The measurements of photoreduction of 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP),and oxygen evolution in the manganess-depleted and the comples 1-reconstituted PS Ⅱ preparations just support our conjecture. 相似文献

Quantum chemical investigations indicated the presence of comparably strong intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions leading to a total S = 5/2 spin ground state, which was confirmed by magnetic measurements. 相似文献

We report the geometrical features and electronic structures of di-mu-oxo-bridged Mn-Mn binuclear complexes with H2O ligands [Mn2O2(H2O)8]q+ in the iso- and mixed-valence oxidation states. All of the combinations among Mn(II), Mn(III), and Mn(IV) ions are considered the oxidation states of the Mn-Mn center, and the changes in molecular structure induced by the different electron configurations of Mn-based orbitals are investigated in relation to the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II. The stable geometries of complexes are determined by using the hybrid-type density functional theory for both of the highest- and lowest-spin couplings between Mn sites, and the lowest-spin-coupled states are energetically more favorable than the highest-spin-coupled states except in the case of the complexes with the Mn(II) ion. The coordination positions of H2O ligands at the Mn(II) site tend to shift from the octahedral positions in contrast to those at the Mn(III) and Mn(IV) sites. The shape of the Mn2O2 core and the distances between the Mn ions and the H2O ligands vary depending on the electron occupations of the octahedral eg orbitals on the Mn site with an antibonding nature for the Mn-ligand interactions, indicating the trend as Mn(II)-O > Mn(III)-O and Mn(IV)-O, O-Mn(II)-O > O-Mn(III)-O > O-Mn(IV)-O among the iso-valence Mn2O2 cores, and O-Mn(lower)-O < O-Mn(higher)-O within the mixed-valence Mn2O2 core, and as Mn(II)-OH2 and Mn(III)-OH2 > Mn(IV)-OH2 for the axial H2O ligand. The optimized geometries of model complexes are compared with the X-ray structure of the OEC, and it is suggested that the cubane-like Mn cluster of the active site may not contain a Mn(II) ion. The effective exchange integrals are estimated by applying the approximate spin projection to clarify the magnetic coupling between Mn sites, and the superexchange pathways through the di-mu-oxo bridge are examined on the basis of the singly occupied magnetic orbitals derived from the singlet-coupled natural orbitals in the broken-symmetry state. The comparisons of the calculated results between [Mn2O2(H2O)8]q+ in this study and [Mn2O2(NH3)8]q+ reported by McGrady et al. suggest that the symmetric pathways are dominant to the exchange coupling constant, and the crossed pathway would be less important for the former than it would for the latter in the Mn(III)-Mn(III), Mn(IV)-Mn(IV), and Mn(III)-Mn(IV) oxidation states. 相似文献

A new 1D complex has been prepared and characterized. X-ray single crystal structure confirms that the Mn(II) ions assemble in alternating chains with Mn-Mn distances of 3.8432(13) and 4.4428(14) Å. A 3D network of hydrogen bonds links the chains together. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility reveals that this compound undergoes a magnetic transition and exhibits an antiferromagnetic interaction in the low-temperature phase with two alternating exchange interactions of −2.32(1) and −5.55(1) cm−1. 相似文献

Density functional theory calculations are reported on a set of isomeric structures I, II and III that share the structural formula [CaMn4C9H10N2O16]q+.(H2O)3 (q= -1, 0, 1, 2, 3). Species I has a skeletal structure, which has been previously identified as a close match to the ligated CaMn4 cluster in Photosystem II, as characterized in the most recent 3.0 angstroms crystal structure. Structures II and III are rearrangements of I, which largely retain that model's bridging ligand framework, but feature metal atom positions broadly consistent with, respectively, the earlier 3.5 and 3.2 angstroms crystal structures for the Photosystem II water-oxidising complex (WOC). Our study explores the influence of the cluster charge state (and hence S state) on several important properties of the model structures; including the relative energies of the three models, their interconversion, trends in the individual Mn oxidation states, preferred hydration sites and favoured modes of magnetic coupling between the manganese atoms. We find that, for several of the explored cluster charge states, modest differences in the bridging-ligand geometry exert a powerful influence over the individual manganese oxidation states, but throughout these states the robustness of the tetrahedron formed by the Ca and three of the Mn atoms remains a significant feature and contrasts with the positional flexibility of the fourth Mn atom. Although structure I is lowest in energy for most S states, the energy differences between structures for a given S state are not large. Overall, structure II provides a better match for the EXAFS derived metal-metal distance parameters for the earlier S states (S0 to S2), but not for S3 in which a significant structural change is observed experimentally. In this S state structure III provides a closer fit. The implications of these results, for the possible action of the WOC, are discussed. 相似文献
