Abstract

MANGANESE is required for the photoautotrophic growth of O ₂-evolving organisms, in which it functions in the O ₂-evolving complex of photosystem II. Mn-deficient cultures thus lose their O₂-evolving capacity, but activity can be restored by reincorporation of Mn into the photosynthetic apparatus. The ratio of Mn atoms to chlorophyll molecules in O₂-evolving organisms and preparations is 1:50-100 (ref. 1).
