Primary Electron Transfer in Photosynthetic Reaction Centers
enhancement of the T-d8 concentration relative to EtOH (bulk solution has a value of =0.25) followed by a near-linear decrease after the break. Returning to the Fickian solution and using the slower turn on of the surface concentration could represent the EtOH diffusion into the polystyrene. Figure 9 with a = 1 would be indicative if an induction period was included. That the EtOH is constraine...
متن کاملElectron transfer in the photosynthetic reaction center.
Photosynthesis occurs via electron transfer between pigment molecules or prosthetic groups embedded in a thylakoid membrane protein complex. These pigments form the “conductive pathway” for electron flow and the surrounding protein serves as a“shaping insulator”. Electron transfer through the protein proceeds via quantum tunneling into succesively lower potential wells represented by the pigmen...
متن کاملPhotoselected electron transfer pathways in DNA photolyase.
Cyclobutane dimer photolyases are proteins that bind to UV-damaged DNA containing cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer lesions. They repair these lesions by photo-induced electron transfer. The electron donor cofactor of a photolyase is a two-electron-reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH(-)). When FADH(-) is photo-excited, it transfers an electron from an excited pi --> pi* singlet state to the py...
متن کاملElectron Transfer in Dye-Sensitized Nanocrystalline TiO2 Solar Cell
The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have been regarded as one of the most promising new generation solar cells. Tremendous research efforts have been invested to improve the efficiency of solar energy conversion which is generally determined by the light harvesting efficiency, electron injection efficiency and undesirable electron lifetime. In this review, various characteristics of dye-...
متن کاملElectron transfer rates and Franck–Condon factors: an application to the early electron transfer steps in photosynthetic reaction centers
Mechanistic aspects of some of the early electron transfer steps occurring in photosynthetic reaction centers are discussed. Starting from the normal modes of the redox cofactors involved in the electron transfer processes, we show how a series of quantities which regulate electron transfer rates, such as (i) the electron transfer active modes, (ii) the intramolecular reorganization energy, and...
