Oxygen-evolving photosystem II complexes were isolated from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii by selective solubilization of thylakoid membranes with dodecyl maltoside followed by density gradient centrifugation and anion-exchange chromatography. In the presence of CaCl2 and K3[Fe(CN)6] the complexes evolved oxygen at rates exceeding 1000 mumol (mg of chl)-1 h-1. The particles contained 40 chlorophylls a and had properties very similar to those of PSII isolated from higher plants. Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is now the first organism which can be used for both site-directed mutagenesis and detailed biochemical and biophysical characterization of oxygen-evolving photosystem II. It seems therefore to be an ideal model organism for investigation of structure-function relationships in photosynthetic oxygen evolution.
