This paper reports an X-ray diffraction model of PSII from the cyanobacterium T. elongatus at 3.5 Å resolution. Most of the amino acid residues of this 650 kDa dimeric multisubunit complex have been assigned. A cubane-like Mn3CaO4 cluster linked to a fourth Mn by a mono-μ-oxo bridge is proposed for the OEC structure.
