Journal ArticleDOI
The nature of the excited state of the reaction center of photosystem II of green plants. A high-resolution fluorescence spectroscopy study.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the electronically excited state of the isolated reaction center of photosystem II with high-resolution fluorescence spectroscopy at 5 K and compared the obtained spectral features with those obtained earlier for the primary electron donor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intra- and interband transfers in the B800-B850 antenna of Rhodospirillum molischianum Redfield theory modeling of polarized pump-probe kinetics
TL;DR: Wendling et al. as mentioned in this paper used an exciton model for the B800−B850 LH2 light-harvesting antenna of Rhodospirillum molischianum to explain the absorption, excitation-wavelength-dependent pump−probe kinetics, and induced absorption anisotropy at 77 K reported previously.
Journal ArticleDOI
The reaction center of photosystem II studied with polarized fluorescence spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, low-temperature steady-state emission properties have been analyzed of Photosystem II reaction center (RC) complexes isolated from spinach CP47-RC complexes after a short Triton X-100 treatment and stabilization in n-dodecyl β, d-maltoside.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photosynthetic antenna proteins: 100 ps before photochemistry starts.
TL;DR: Laser spectroscopy allows us to measure rates of energy transfer between pigments of the light harvesting system for the first time and these rates are correlated with models of theLight harvesting apparatus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of two emitting sites in the dissipative state of the major light harvesting antenna
TL;DR: Stark fluorescence spectroscopy is applied to LHCII in different quenching states to investigate the possible contribution of charge-transfer states to the quenched state and reveals the presence of two distinct energy dissipating sites both characterized by a strong but spectrally very different response to the applied electric field.
