Abstract

The resolution of the structure of Rhodopseudomonas viridis reaction center (RC) [1–3] has been a milestone in bacterial photosynthesis research, opening the way to detailed studies of structure-function relationships as evidenced in the Feldafing meeting. Structures of Rhodobacter sphaeroides RCs from strain R26 [4–7] (a carotenoidless mutant) and from two wild type strains, 2.4.1 [5] and Y [8] were demonstrated to be highly homologous to Rps. viridis RC. This is in favor of the existence of a structural class for purple bacteria RCs. However differences have been reported, mainly at the level of the chromophores and of their interactions with neighbouring aminoacid residues [5]. Detailed structural studies of RCs from various bacterial strains are therefore needed for determining the extent and the nature of these differences.
