Energy transfer and trapping in photosystem I.
The primary processes in all photosynthetic systems involve the absorption of energy from (sun) light by chromophores in a light harvesting antenna, and the subsequent transfer of this energy to a reaction centre (RC) site where the energy is `trapped' by means of a stable charge separation. Photosystem (PS) I is one of two such photosystems in oxygenic photosynthesis. When co-operating with PS...
متن کاملExcitation energy transfer and charge separation in photosystem II membranes revisited.
We have performed time-resolved fluorescence measurements on photosystem II (PSII) containing membranes (BBY particles) from spinach with open reaction centers. The decay kinetics can be fitted with two main decay components with an average decay time of 150 ps. Comparison with recent kinetic exciton annihilation data on the major light-harvesting complex of PSII (LHCII) suggests that excitatio...
متن کاملThe Photosystem I core of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: spectral properties, excitation energy transfer and trapping kinetics
Photosystem (PS) I is one of the two multi-protein complexes that harvest sunlight to perform charge separation and transport electrons across the photosynthetic membranes. PSI is made of two moieties, the core and the peripheral antennae. Among the hundreds of pigments associated with PSI, the majority are chlorophylls (Chls) a, but their spectral properties vary due to the presence of the pro...
متن کاملCharge separation and energy transfer in multicomponent porphyrinic arrays*
An overview of the recent activity of the laboratory in the determination of the photophysical properties of porphyrinic arrays, with emphasis on the theme of photoinduced charge separation, is presented.
متن کاملCharge separation and energy transfer in the mitochondrial membrane.
It is clearly emerging from the work of various laboratories that membrane-bound electron transfer chains are anisotropically arranged along an axis perpendicular to the plane of the membrane (1-6). Anisotropic organization of redox chains, composed of hydrogen and electron carriers can lead, as proposed by Lundegardh (7), to generation of transmembrane electrical fields and proton gradients if...
