Optimal Ph

Incubation of a membrane preparation enriched in Photosystem Two (PSII) at alkaline pH inhibited the water-splitting reactions in two distinct steps. Up to pH 8.5 the inhibition was reversible, whereas at higher alkalinities it was irreversible. It was shown that the reversible phase correlated with loss and rebinding of the 23 kDa extrinsic polypeptide. However, after mild alkaline treatments a partial recovery was possible without the binding of the 23 kDa polypeptide when the assay was at the optimal pH of 6.5 and in a medium containing excess Cl-. The irreversible phase was found to be closely linked with the removal of the 33 kDa extrinsic protein of PSII. Treatments with pH values above 8.5 not only caused the 33 kDa protein to be displaced from the PSII-enriched membranes, but also resulted in an irreversible modification of the binding sites such that the extrinsic 33 kDa protein could not reassociate with PSII when the pH was lowered to 6.5. The results obtained with these more extreme alkaline pH treatments support the notion that the 23 kDa protein cannot bind to PSII unless the 33 kDa protein is already bound. The differential effect of pH on the removal of the 23 kDa and 33 kDa proteins contrasted with the data of Kuwabara & Murata [(1983) Plant Cell Physiol. 24, 741-747], but this discrepancy was accounted for by the use of glycerol in the incubation media.
