Reaction Centers of Photosynthetic Bacteria

Feldafing-II-Meeting

Herausgegeben von Michel-Beyerle, M.-E.

Beschreibung

Reaction Centers of Photosynthetic Bacteria is an updated record on the most recent insight into the struc- ture/function relationship of reaction centers from photosynthetic bacteria. It addresses in particular, interactions and dynamics which determine the ultra-high quantum yield of photoinduced charge separation in these energy-transforming molecular machines. Of particular interest is the still controversial issue of the primary charge separation mechanism as well as the effects of well-defined modifications, introduced either by mutagenic replacements in the protein matrix or by chemical exchange of reaction center pigments. Also described are the methods used for the characterization of interactions and dynamics important for electron transfer processes in the reaction center.

Autor

Rooted in the crystal structure of the reaction center of meanwhile two bacterial organisms, the present compilation of invited papers points in a self-evident way to the different lines of developments in a still vividly expanding field. The abundance of open questions initiated also novel methodological approaches spanning a wide bow from biochemistry and genetic engineering over complex spectroscopies to chemical modelling, molecular dynamics calculations and electron transfer theory.
