EPR Investigation of Photoinduced Radical Pair Formation and Decay to a Triplet State in a Carotene−Porphyrin−Fullerene Triad
Donatella Carbonera,Marilena Di Valentin,Carlo Corvaja,Giancarlo Agostini,Giovanni Giacometti,Paul A. Liddell,Darius Kuciauskas,Ana L. Moore,Thomas A. Moore,Devens Gust +9 more
TL;DR: The photochemistry of a molecular triad consisting of a porphyrin (P) covalently linked to a carotenoid polyene (C) and a fullerene derivative (C60) has been studied at 20 K by time-resolved EPR sp...
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the axial ligands on the spectral properties of P700 of photosystem I: a study of site-directed mutants.
Ludwig Krabben,Eberhard Schlodder,Rafael Jordan,Donatella Carbonera,Giovanni Giacometti,Hyeonmoo Lee,and Andrew N. Webber,Wolfgang Lubitz +7 more
TL;DR: The data provide convincing evidence that the unpaired electron in the cation radical and the triplet state of P700 are mainly localized on the Chl a of the dimer which is axially coordinated by His(B656).
Journal ArticleDOI
Absence of water at the sixth co-ordination site in ferric Aplysia myoglobin.
Giorgio M. Giacometti,Paolo Ascenzi,Maurizio Brunori,Giorgio Rigatti,Giovanni Giacometti,Martino Bolognesi +5 more
TL;DR: This finding rationalizes some peculiar properties of Aplysia myoglobin as compared with sperm whale myoglobin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of D2 protein due to UV‐B irradiation of the reaction centre of photosystem II
TL;DR: It is concluded that the primary cleavage occurs in the hydrophilic loop linking putative transmembrane segments IV and V, suggesting that this UV‐B damage is dependent on binding of the added quinone to the QA site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-neighbour effects on hyperfine coupling constants in alternant hydrocarbon radicals
TL;DR: An improvement of the McConnell formula for the correlation of hydrogen coupling constants in alternant hydrocarbon ions is derived in this paper, without introducing any charge effect but only considering, in the first order perturbation expansion, terms arising from hydrogen next nearest neighbour carbon p orbitals.
