Light harvesting complex II B850 excitation dynamics.
The dynamics of excitation energy transfer within the B850 ring of light harvesting complex 2 from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and between neighboring B850 rings is investigated by means of dissipative quantum mechanics. The assumption of Boltzmann populated donor states for the calculation of intercomplex excitation transfer rates by generalized Forster theory is shown to give accurate results sin...
متن کاملLight-harvesting II (B800-B850 complex) structural genes from Rhodopseudomonas capsulata.
The light-harvesting II (LHII) structural genes coding for the (B800-B850 complex) beta- and alpha-polypeptides have been cloned and the nucleotide and deduced polypeptide sequences have been determined. This completes the sequencing of all seven structural genes coding for the structural polypeptides of the photosynthetic apparatus that bind the pigments and cofactors participating in the prim...
متن کاملPopulation and coherence dynamics in light harvesting complex II (LH2).
The electronic excitation population and coherence dynamics in the chromophores of the photosynthetic light harvesting complex 2 (LH2) B850 ring from purple bacteria (Rhodopseudomonas acidophila) have been studied theoretically at both physiological and cryogenic temperatures. Similar to the well-studied Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) protein, oscillations of the excitation population and coherence...
متن کاملObservation of Electronic Excitation Transfer through Light Harvesting Complex II Using Two-dimensional Electronic-vibrational Spectroscopy.
Light Harvesting Complex II (LHCII) serves a central role in light harvesting for oxygenic photosynthesis, and is arguably the most important photosynthetic antenna complex. In this work, we present two-dimensional electronic-vibrational (2DEV) spectra of LHCII isolated from spinach, demonstrating the possibility of using this technique to track the transfer of electronic excitation energy betw...
متن کاملXanthophylls in light-harvesting complex II of higher plants: light harvesting and triplet quenching.
A spectral and functional assignment of the xanthophylls in monomeric and trimeric light-harvesting complex II of green plants has been obtained using HPLC analysis of the pigment composition, laser-flash induced triplet-minus-singlet, fluorescence excitation, and absorption spectra. It is shown that violaxanthin is not present in monomeric preparations, that it has most likely a red-most absor...
