Application of Electron-Transfer Theory to Several Systems of Biological Interest

  • Conference paper
Antennas and Reaction Centers of Photosynthetic Bacteria

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 42))

Abstract

Electron-transfer reaction rates are compared with theoretically calculated values for several reactions in the bacterial photosynthetic reaction center. A second aspect of the theory, the cross-relation, is illustrated using protein-protein electron-transfers.
