51. R.J. Debus, M.A. Strickler, L.M. Walker, and W. Hillier No evidence from FTIR difference spectroscopy that aspartate-170 of the D1 polypeptide ligates a manganese ion that undergoes oxidation during the S0 to S1, S1 to S2, or S2 to S3 transitions in photosystem II Biochemistry 44 2005 1367 1374 D170 has long been known to be a ligand of the high-affinity Mn-binding site, precipitating cluster formation in PSII. FTIR examination of the D170H mutation of PSII as compared with wild type show little difference upon oxidation through the S-cycle, suggesting that, contrary to previous hypotheses, this Mn may not be the site for catalytic water oxidation.

This is manifested in increased interatomic distances between the Mn-ions of the OEC.
