Xanthophylls 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...
متن کاملMultiscale model of light harvesting by photosystem II in plants.
The first step of photosynthesis in plants is the absorption of sunlight by pigments in the antenna complexes of photosystem II (PSII), followed by transfer of the nascent excitation energy to the reaction centers, where long-term storage as chemical energy is initiated. Quantum mechanical mechanisms must be invoked to explain the transport of excitation within individual antenna. However, it i...
متن کاملCoherent open-loop optimal control of light-harvesting dynamics
We apply theoretically open-loop quantum optimal control techniques to provide methods for the verification of various quantum coherent transport mechanisms in natural and artificial light-harvesting complexes under realistic experimental constraints. We demonstrate that optimally shaped laser pulses allow to faithfully prepare the photosystem in specified initial states (such as localized exci...
متن کاملHarvesting Monoclonal Antibodies from Plants
Geographical correlations between standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) of cancers and consumption of different types of alcoholic beverages (sake synthetic sake', shochu, beer, wine, and whisky), of cigarettes, and urbanization were examined for all 46 prefectures in Japen. Suggestive correlations were observed between cancer of the oesophagus in males and both shochu and whisky (r=0 27 and 022...
متن کاملDivergent light-harvesting complexes
‡Current address: University of Washington, School of Oceanography, Box 357940, Seattle, WA 98195-7940, USA. †Co first authors. Approximately one-half of the total primary production on Earth occurs in the oceans [1]. Although hundreds of species contribute to oceanic productivity, members of two cyanobacterial genera – Prochlorococcus [2,3] and Synechococcus [4] – are responsible for a signifi...
