چکیده
The input of solar energy into photosynthesis, and thence into the biosphere, occurs via chlorophyll-containing proteins known as reaction centres. There are two kinds of reaction centre in oxygenic photosynthesis: photosystem I (PSI) and photosystem II (PSII). The PSII reaction centre, alias the oxygen-evolving enzyme, the water-oxidizing complex or the water-plastoquinone photo-oxidoreductase, has now been crystallized and its structure solved to a resolution of 3.8 A.

متن کاملOptimization of 3D Planning Dosimetry in a Breast Phantom for the Match Region of Supraclavicular and Tangential Fields
Introduction: The complex geometry of breast and also lung and heart inhomogeneities near the planning target volume (PTV) result in perturbations in dose distribution. This problem can result in overdosage or underdosage in the match region of the three treatment fields. The purpose of this study is to create a homogeneous dose distribution in the match region between the supraclavicular and t...
متن کاملSemantics of haq in the Glorious Quran
Meaning plays a very important role at all levels of linguistic analysis and in linguistics. We can say that the word itself and out of the chain of speech doesn’t show the true meaning. It should be in relation with other signs within the language that its meaning be relived.
