[Possible states of photosystem II reaction center and thermoluminescence of the higher plants. I. Analysis of thermoluminescence models and their applicability to the description of experimental data].
A method for the deconvolution of experimental glow curves into overlapping bands and determination of the activation energies for these bands is proposed. The model includes the S-states of the water-splitting complex, tyrozine Z and P680 on the donor side, pheophytine, primary and secondary quinone acceptors on the acceptor side, and takes into account the connection between different states of the reaction center complex. The rate constants of forward electron transport and the activation energies of backward reactions of electron transfer in photosystem II reaction center, included into the model, are estimated from the known experimental data using the proposed approach.
