On the dimerization of chlorophyll in photosystem II
文献情報
Sten O. Nilsson Lill
In photosystem II, absorbed light energy is transferred to a reaction centre consisting of chlorophyll units. Release of an electron from the reaction centre is the starting point for the charge separation and electron transport chain in PSII. Crystal structures of the reaction centre have identified two chlorophyll monomers forming a dimer with a partial structural overlap, thus being stabilized by van der Waals interactions. However, the magnitude of this interaction is not accurately known. In this work, the structure of the chlorophyll dimer has been optimized for the first time using dispersion-corrected density functional theory (B3LYP-DCP) revealing the magnitude of dimerization to be approximately −17 kcal mol−1. The dispersion interaction is shown to be of great significance for the chlorophyll dimer stabilization. In addition, the redox potential of the chlorophyll dimer is calculated to be 1283 mV in good agreement with recent experimental data.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
