▪ Abstract Photosystem I is the light-driven plastocyanin-ferredoxin oxidoreductase in the
thylakoid membranes of cyanobacteria and chloroplasts. In recent years, sophisticated …

The mechanistic understanding of protein functions requires insight into the structural and
reaction dynamics. To elucidate these processes, a variety of experimental approaches are …

Scientists in such fields as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and
medicine are currently involved in investigations of porphyrins and their numerous …

Plastocyanin and cytochrome c 6 function as electron shuttles between cytochrome f and
photosystem I in the photosynthetic redox chain. To transfer electrons the partners form …

An active environment is any atomic or molecular system changing a chromophore's
nonadiabatic dynamics compared to the isolated molecule. The action of the environment on …

Most of life's energy comes from sunlight, and thus, photosynthesis underpins the survival of
virtually all life forms. The light-driven electron transfer at photosystem I (PSI) is certainly the …

The supramolecular arrangement of respiratory complexes into supercomplexes is widely
accepted. The common feature observed in the supercomplex architecture from organisms …

▪ Abstract The cytochromes that function in photosynthesis in cyanobacteria, algae, and
higher plants have, like the other photosynthetic catalysts, been largely conserved in their …

Iron-porphyrin complexes, known as hemes, form the prosthetic groups of a number of
proteins. These hemoproteins exhibit an impressive range of biological functions. These …

Cytochrome c 6 and plastocyanin are soluble metalloproteins that act as mobile carriers
transferring electrons between the two membrane-embedded photosynthetic complexes …
