Background
Photosystem II, crystallized from the bacteria, Thermosynechococcus elongatus, at 3.50 Å, is representative of the photosynthetic protein found in cyanobacteria and plants. The protein is associated with a variety of ligands. It is mainly composed of and is a symmetrical . Fifteen subunits are in each monomer, with multiple subunits associated with the oxygen evolving complex missing in this crystallization.
