There is very little in this eleventh volume of Topics in Photosynthesis which could have been written when the first volume was published fifteen years ago. Advances over the last decade have been spectacular, most particularly in our understanding of the photosystems that is the subject of this volume. After a comparative introducution of bacterial and plant photosystems, the book begins with a consideration of what is theoretically possible in energy conversion. This is followed by light harvesting in photosystems II, followed by its molecular biology, protein engineering, thermoluminescence, photoinhibition, the effect of herbicides and heat shock, and, most important function of all and one about which so little is yet understood at the molecular level, the process by which it evolves oxygen. The last three chapters deal with the equivalent processes of photosystem I. The whole volume tells the story of a natural system of incredible ingenuity and complexity, but which as the chapters unfold, is seen to be within our grasp and eventual ability to comprehend.

Photosystem II is a 700-kDa membrane-protein super-complex responsible for the light-driven splitting of water in oxygenic photosynthesis. The photosystem is comprised of two 350-kDa complexes each made of 20 different polypeptides and over 80 co-factors. While there have been major advances in understanding the mature structure of this photosystem many key protein factors involved in the assembly of the complex do not appear in the holoenzyme. The mechanism for assembling this super-complex is a very active area of research with newly discovered assembly factors and subcomplexes requiring characterization. Additionally the ability to split water is inseparable from light-induced photodamage that arises from radicals and reactive O2 species generated by Photosystem II chemistry. Consequently, to sustain water splitting, a “self repair” cycle has evolved whereby damaged protein is removed and replaced so as to extend the working life of the complex. Understanding how the biogenesis and repair processes are coordinated is among several important questions that remain to be answered. Other questions include: how and when are the inorganic cofactors inserted during the assembly and repair processes and how are the subcomplexes protected from photodamage during assembly? Evidence has also been obtained for Photosystem II biogenesis centers in cyanobacteria but do these also exist in plants? Do the molecular mechanisms associated with Photosystem II assembly shed fresh light on the assembly of other major energy-transducing complexes such as Photosystem I or the cytochrome b6/f complex or indeed other respiratory complexes? The contributions to this Frontiers in Plant Science Research Topic are likely to reveal new details applicable to the assembly of a range of membrane-protein complexes, including aspects of self-assembly and solar energy conversion that may be applied to artificial photosynthetic systems. In addition, a deeper understanding of Photosystem II assembly — particularly in response to changing environmental conditions — will provide new knowledge underpinning photosynthetic yields which may contribute to improved food production and long-term food security.

Light-activated electron transfer reactions between cofactors embedded in proteins serve as the central mechanism underlying numerous biological processes essential to the survival and prosperity of most organisms on this planet. These processes range from navigation, to DNA repair, to metabolism, and to solar energy conversion. The proper functioning of these processes relies on the creation of a charge-separated states lasting for a necessary length of time, from tens of nanoseconds to hundreds of milliseconds, by the arrays of cofactors in photosystems. In spite of decades of experiments and theoretical frameworks providing detailed and extensive description of the behavior of the photosystems, coherent and systematic understanding is lacking regarding the underlying structural and chemical engineering principles that govern the performance of charge-separation in photosystems, evaluated by the fraction of the input energy made available by the photosystem for its intended function. This thesis aims to establish a set of engineering principles of natural and man-made photosystems based on the fundamental theories of electron transfer and the biophysical and biochemical constraints imposed by the protein environment, and then to apply these engineering principles to design and construct man-made photosystems that can excel in charge-separation while incurring minimal cost in their construction. Using the fundamental theories of electron transfer, this thesis develops an efficient computational algorithm that returns a set of guidelines for engineering optimal light-driven charge-separation in cofactor-based photosystems. This thesis then examines the validity of these guidelines in natural photosystems, discovering significant editing and updating of these guidelines imposed by the biological environment in which photosystems are engineered by nature. This thesis then organizes the two layers of engineering principles into a concise set of rules and demonstrates that they can be applied as guidelines to the practical construction of highly efficient man-made photosystems. To test these engineering guidelines in practice, the first ever donor-pigment-acceptor triad is constructed in a maquette and successfully separates charges stably for >300ms, establishing the world record in a triad. Finally, this work looks ahead to the engineering of the prescribed optimal tetrads in maquettes, identifying what’s in place and what challenges yet remain.

Structure and function of the components of the photosynthetic apparatus and the molecular biology of these components have become the dominant themes in advances in our understanding of the light reactions of oxygenic photosynthesis. Oxygenic Photosynthesis: The Light Reactions presents our current understanding of these reactions in thylakoid membranes. Topics covered include the photosystems, the cytochrome b6-f complex, plastocyanin, ferredoxin, FNR, light-harvesting complexes, and the coupling factor. Chapters are also devoted to the structure of thylakoid membranes, their lipid composition, and their biogenesis. Updates on the crystal structures of cytochrome f, ATP synthase and photosystem I are presented and a section on molecular biology and evolution of the photosynthetic apparatus is also included. The chapters in this book provide a comprehensive overview of photosynthetic reactions in eukaryotic thylakoids. The book is intended for a wide audience, including graduate students and researchers active in this field, as well as those individuals who have interests in plant biochemistry and molecular biology or plant physiology.
