Analysis of Time-resolved Fluorescence of Rhodopseudomonas viridis Reaction Centers

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 42))

Abstract

Knowledge on structure and dynamics of photosynthetic reaction centers (RCs) is crucial to understand their function i.e. the light-driven charge separation process. The recently obtained structure of Rhodopseudomonas viridis /1, 2/ is an important step towards this goal. It has been shown that steady state optical spectra are mainly determined by the static structural arrangement of the pigments /3–7/. Time-resolved spectra are related more to the dynamical aspects of RCs. However, structural information on RCs is also useful to understand time-dependent spectra.
