  2. 6. Lipidic-sponge phase crystallisation and time-resolved Laue diffraction studies of bacterial photosynthetic reaction centres

    Author : Annemarie Wöhri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lipidic-sponge phase crystallization reaction centre from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Blastochloris viridis photosynthesis evolution time-resolved Laue diffraction;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis is the procedure of light capture and converting it into a chemical energy source for the cell. The work-horse of this process are photosynthetic reaction centres, which capture photons with the help of their antenna complexes and use these photons to drive charge separation reactions, and ultimately chemiosmotic coupling.
