Abstract
Recently localization and functioning of the cofactors in the reaction centers (RC s) from photosvnthetic bacteria (l) have been studied in detail and the molecular organization of the RC from Rps. viridis has been investigated by X-ray structure analysis (2). However, to find out the role of the protein moiety in the RC functioning it is necessary to develop some methods creating directed perturbations in various sites of polypeptide chains. It is also important to be able to selectively introduce reporter groups in the RC subunits. It is necessary to develop some approaches to creating isomorphi-cally substituted crystals of the RC from Rps. sphaeroides R-26.
