Transport of electrons in spinach photosystem II (PSII) whose oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) contains heterogeneous metal clusters 2Mn2Fe and 3Mn1Fe was studied by measuring the fluorescence induction kinetics (FIK). PSII(2Mn,2Fe) and PSII(3Mn,1Fe) preparations were produced using Cadepleted PSII membranes (PSII(–Ca)). It was found that FIK in PSII(2Mn,2Fe) membranes is similar in form to FIK in PSII(–Ca) samples, but the fluorescence yield is lower in PSII(2Mn,2Fe). The results demonstrate that, just as in PSII(–Ca) preparations, there is electron transfer from the metal cluster in the OEC to the primary plastoquinone electron acceptor Q A . They also show that partial substitution of Mn cations with Fe has no effect on the electron transport on the acceptor side of PSII. Thus, these data demonstrate the possibility of water oxidation either by the heterogeneous metal cluster or just by the manganese dimer. We established that FIK in PSII(3Mn,1Fe) preparations are similar in form to FIK in PSII(2Mn,2Fe) membranes but PSII(3Mn,1Fe) is characterized by a slightly higher maximal fluorescence yield, F max. The electron transfer rate in PSII(3Mn,1Fe) preparations significantly (by a factor of two) increases in the presence of Ca2+, whereas Ca2+ has hardly any effect on the electron transport in PSII(2Mn,2Fe) membranes. In Mndepleted PSII membranes, FIK reaches its maximum (the so-called peak K), after which the fluorescence yield starts to decrease as the result of two factors: the oxidation of reduced primary plastoquinone Q A − and the absence of electron influx from the donor side of PSII. The replacement of Mn cations by Fe in PSII(‒Mn) preparations leads to fluorescence saturation and disappearance of the K peak. This is possibly due to the deceleration of the charge recombination process that takes place between reduced primary electron acceptor Q A − and oxidized tyrosine Y Z +. which is an electron carrier between the OEC and the primary electron donor P680.
