Abstract: The present invention relates to bio-engineered photosystems, specifically photosystem II (PSII) having an alternative electron transfer pathway that enables electron flow from PSII to a water-soluble protein electron carrier. The present invention further relates to methods and systems for electron transfer using the bio-engineered photosystems. Such photosystems may be utilized for electrical energy production, hydrogen production and/or reduction of carbon-based gases (for example, CO2 and CO) to liquid fuels.
