1.
Quigg A, Beardall J, Wydrzynski T
Funct Plant Biol . 2020 Jul; 30(3):301-308. PMID: 32689012
Net energy accumulation by marine microalgae at very low photon fluxes involves modulation of several attributes related to both the growth and photosynthetic physiology of these organisms. Here we studied...

Hingorani K, Pace R, Whitney S, Murray J, Smith P, Hon Cheah M, et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta . 2014 Aug; 1837(10):1821-34. PMID: 25107631
The photosynthetic reaction centre (RC) is central to the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy and is a model for bio-mimetic engineering approaches to this end. We describe bio-engineering...

Service R, Yano J, McConnell I, Hwang H, Niks D, Hille R, et al.
Biochemistry . 2010 Dec; 50(1):63-81. PMID: 21114287
In the current X-ray crystallographic structural models of photosystem II, Glu354 of the CP43 polypeptide is the only amino acid ligand of the oxygen-evolving Mn(4)Ca cluster that is not provided...

Williamson A, Conlan B, Hillier W, Wydrzynski T
Photosynth Res . 2010 Jun; 107(1):71-86. PMID: 20512415
This article attempts to address the molecular origin of Photosystem II (PSII), the central component in oxygenic photosynthesis. It discusses the possible evolution of the relevant cofactors needed for splitting...

Beckmann K, Messinger J, Badger M, Wydrzynski T, Hillier W
Photosynth Res . 2009 Aug; 102(2-3):511-22. PMID: 19653116
Significant insights into plant photosynthesis and respiration have been achieved using membrane inlet mass spectrometry (MIMS) for the analysis of stable isotope distribution of gases. The MIMS approach is based...
6.
Conlan B, Cox N, Su J, Hillier W, Messinger J, Lubitz W, et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta . 2009 May; 1787(9):1112-21. PMID: 19409368
Photosynthesis involves the conversion of light into chemical energy through a series of electron transfer reactions within membrane-bound pigment/protein complexes. The Photosystem II (PSII) complex in plants, algae and cyanobacteria...
7.
Wydrzynski T, Hillier W, Conlan B
Photosynth Res . 2007 Oct; 94(2-3):225-33. PMID: 17955341
Our knowledge of Photosystem II and the molecular mechanism of oxygen production are rapidly advancing. The time is now ripe to exploit this knowledge and use it as a blueprint...

Singh S, Debus R, Wydrzynski T, Hillier W
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci . 2007 Oct; 363(1494):1229-34. PMID: 17954434
18 O isotope exchange measurements of photosystem II (PSII) in thylakoids from wild-type and mutant Synechocystis have been performed to investigate binding of substrate water to the high-affinity Mn4 site...
9.
Razeghifard R, Wallace B, Pace R, Wydrzynski T
Curr Protein Pept Sci . 2007 Feb; 8(1):3-18. PMID: 17305556
Much is now known about how protein folding occurs, through the sequence analysis of proteins of known folding geometry and the sequence/structural analysis of proteins and their mutants. This has...

Hughes J, Razeghifard R, Logue M, Oakley A, Wydrzynski T, Krausz E
J Am Chem Soc . 2006 Mar; 128(11):3649-58. PMID: 16536537
In vitro chlorophyll (Chl) aggregates have often served as models for in vivo forms of long-wavelength Chl. However, the interaction of protein-bound Chl molecules is typically different than that occurring...
