Pivotal role of the redox-active tyrosine in driving the water splitting catalyzed by photosystem II

Photosynthetic water oxidation is catalyzed by the Mn4Ca cluster in photosystem II (PSII). The nearby redox-active tyrosine (Y-Z) serves as a direct electron acceptor of the Mn4Ca cluster and it forms a low-barrier H-bond (LBHB) with a neighboring histidin ...

Carbon dioxide reduction by lanthanide(iii) complexes supported by redox-active Schiff base ligands

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Davide Toniolo, Nadir Jori

Here we have explored the ability of Schiff bases to act as electron reservoirs and to enable the multi-electron reduction of small molecules by lanthanide complexes. We report the reductive chemistry of the Ln(iii) complexes of the tripodal heptadentate S ...

Spin cascade and doming in ferric hemes: Femtosecond X-ray absorption and X-ray emission studies

Majed Chergui, Wojciech Gawelda, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Frederico Alves Lima, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Dominik Kinschel, Oliviero Cannelli, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Jérémy Raymond Jean Maurice Rouxel, Samuel Menzi

The structure-function relationship is at the heart of biology, and major protein deformations are correlated to specific functions. For ferrous heme proteins, doming is associated with the respiratory function in hemoglobin and myoglobins. Cytochrome c (C ...

In Situ Biostimulation of Cr(VI) Reduction in a Fast-Flowing Oxic Aquifer

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi

Hexavalent chromium is among the most common and hazardous inorganic contaminants in soils and groundwater. A promising in situ bioremediation approach is the delivery of electron donors to stimulate microbially mediated Cr(VI) reduction, producing relativ ...
