The primary electron-transfer reaction in bacterial photosynthesis occurs within a membrane-
bound complex of pigments and proteins which has come to be known as" the reaction …

The first light-induced ESR signals of plant photosynthetic material were discovered in 1954
by Commoner et al.[238]. Subsequent work [81,239—241] revealed two signals, a narrow …

Reaction centers were found to bind two ubiquinones, both of which could be removed by o-
phenanthroline and the detergent lauryldimethylamine oxide. One ubiquinone was more …

Bacteriopheophytin, the magnesium-free base of bacteriochlorophyll, undergoes reversible
one-electron reduction in organic solvents to yield an anionic free radical with characteristic …

The complete absorption difference spectrum of the primary electron acceptor of
Photosystem II has been measured at room temperature in subchloroplast fragments …

Picosecond and nanosecond spectroscopic techniques have been used to study the primary
electron transfer processes in reaction centers isolated from the photosynthetic bacterium …

The yield of the triplet state in reaction centers of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides is
dependent on the strength of an applied magnetic field. Reaction centers of the wild type …

Having reviewed the first edition of this book some 5 years ago forNature (1972, 236,298.) it
is a pleasure to read it again and see how the author has kept up with the field and also …

Trehalose is a nonreducing disaccharide of glucose found in organisms, which can survive
adverse conditions such as extreme drought and high temperatures. Furthermore, isolated …

The proton uptake associated with the light-induced transfer of an electron to the acceptor
quinones QA and QB was investigated in reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R …
