We describe ultra-high resolution structures of PCa and high-resolution structures of PCb, both under oxidizing and reducing conditions at pH 4, 6 and 8. The docking on cytochrome f and photosystem I, respectively, has been modeled for both isoforms. PCa and PCb exhibit closely similar overall and active-site structures, except for a difference in the relative orientation of the acidic patches. The isoforms exhibit substantial differences in the dependence of the reduced (Cu(I)) geometry on pH. In PCa, the decrease in pH causes a gradual dissociation of His87 from Cu(I) at low pH, probably adopting a neutral tautomeric state. In PCb, the histidine remains covalently bound to Cu(I) and may adopt a doubly protonated state at low pH. The fact that both isoforms have similar although not identical functions in photosynthetic electron flows suggests that the His87 imidazole does not play a crucial role for the pathway of electron transport from cytochrome f to oxidized PC.}, keywords = {Copper: chemistry / Copper: metabolism / Cytochromes f: chemistry / Cytochromes f: metabolism / Hydrogen-Ion Concentration / Oxidation-Reduction / Photosynthesis: physiology / Photosystem I Protein Complex: chemistry / Photosystem I Protein Complex: metabolism / Plastocyanin: chemistry / Plastocyanin: metabolism / Populus: chemistry / Populus: metabolism / Protein Isoforms: chemistry / Protein Isoforms: metabolism / Photosystem I Protein Complex (NLM Chemicals) / Protein Isoforms (NLM Chemicals) / Copper (NLM Chemicals) / Plastocyanin (NLM Chemicals) / Cytochromes f (NLM Chemicals)}, cin = {HASYLAB}, ddc = {540}, cid = {$I:(DE-H253)HASYLAB_-2012_-20130307$}, pnm = {DORIS Beamline BW6 (POF2-54G13)}, pid = {G:(DE-H253)POF2-BW6-20130405}, experiment = {EXP:(DE-H253)D-BW6-20150101}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:22883960}, UT = {WOS:000309990500023}, doi = {10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2012.07.015}, url = {https://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/143955}, }
