| Abstract | Room temperature, light induced (P700+-P700) Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) difference spectra have been obtained using photosystem I (PS I) particles from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 that are unlabeled, uniformly 2H labeled, and uniformly 15N labeled. Spectra were also obtained for PS I particles that had been extensively washed and incubated in D2O. Previously, we have found that extensive washing and incubation of PS I samples in D2O does not alter the (P700+-P700) FTIR difference spectrum, even with ∼50% proton exchange. This indicates that the P700 binding site is inaccessible to solvent water. Upon uniform 2H labeling of PS I, however, the (P700+-P700) FTIR difference spectra are considerably altered. From spectra obtained using PS I particles grown in D2O and H2O, a (1H-2H) isotope edited double difference spectrum was constructed, and it is shown that all difference bands associated with ester/keto carbonyl modes of the chlorophylls of P700 and P700+ downshift 4–5/1–3 cm−1 upon 2H labeling, respectively. It is also shown that the ester and keto carbonyl modes of the chlorophylls of P700 need not be heterogeneously distributed in frequency. Finally, we find no evidence for the presence of a cysteine mode in our difference spectra. The spectrum obtained using 2H labeled PS I particles indicates that a negative difference band at 1698 cm−1 is associated with at least two species. The observed 15N and 2H induced band shifts strongly support the idea that the two species are the 131 keto carbonyl modes of both chlorophylls of P700. We also show that a negative difference band at ∼1639 cm−1 is somewhat modified in intensity, but unaltered in frequency, upon 2H labeling. This indicates that this band is not associated with a strongly hydrogen bonded keto carbonyl mode of one of the chlorophylls of P700. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
