13C Photo-CIDNP MAS NMR on the Reaction Center of Green Sulphur Bacterium at Two Different Magnetic Fields

Photosynthesis. Energy from the Sun

Abstract

Photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarisation (photo-CIDNP) has been observed at two different magnetic field 9.4 and 4.7 Tesla, in reaction centers (RCs) of green sulphur bacterium Chlorobium (C.) tepidum by 13C magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR.The data suggest that the donor is a very symmetric dimer and the electronic coupling parameters are similar to those of RCs of Rhodobacter sphaeroides and of photosystem I.
