The cascade of oxidation-reduction reactions starts off with an electronically excited P680, which donates electrons to a pheophytin acceptor (Ph). From there, the pheophytin acceptor donates electrons to QA (which is a protein-bound plastoquinone), and then QA donates its electrons to QB (another protein-bound plastoquinone). Next, QB donates the electrons to QH2 (reduced plastoquinone), which then donates the electrons to the cytochrome b6f complex. When this occurs, the cytochrome b6f complex donates it electrons to plastocyanin (PC) and also releases eight protons into the thylakoid membrane. Finally, the plastocyanin transfers its electrons to P700 in order to start photosystem I. The overall reaction for photosystem II is 2H2O (with 4 photons excitation)-> 4H+ + 4e- +O2.

Photosystem I (P700) whose PDB ID is 2O01 works as in transferring electrons and driving electron transport through the photosystem until the final product NADPH is synthesized. The overall equation is4e^-+2H^++2〖NADP〗^+→2NADPH. The reaction is driven by 4 photons of light which excite photosystem I and make it move forward. The A0 complex known as Chlorophyll A0 is an early electron acceptor. It accepts the electrons from the excitation of P700 before passing them along to the next early electron acceptor.

The A1 complex known as Phylloquinone A1 is the next early electron acceptor. It oxidizes A0 to receive the electron and then reduces the Fx (Iron-Sulfur complex) to pass the electron the next two Iron-Sulfur complexes (FA and FB). FA and FB (Iron-Sulfur complexes) serve as the electron relays. They are bound to protein subunits of photosystem I. Meanwhile Fx is tied to the photosystem I complex.

Next, Fd which is known as Ferredoxin is the soluble protein that performs the reaction that reduces NADP+ to NADPH. The main role of Fd is to transfer the electron from an Iron-Sulfur complex to Ferredoxin-NADP+ Reductase (FNR). FNR is a certain enzyme that transfers the electron from the reduced ferredoxin to NADP+ to form NADPH. The overall reaction for this entire pathway is 2H_2 O+2〖NADP〗^+→2H^++O_2+2NADPH
