Proton and electron transfer in bacterial reaction centers.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 12 May 2000

Okamura M Y, Paddock M L, Graige M S, Feher G

Abstract excerpt

The bacterial reaction center couples light-induced electron transfer to proton pumping across the membrane by reactions of a quinone molecule Q(B) that binds two electrons and two protons at the active site. This article reviews recent experimental work on the mechanism of the proton-coupled electron transfer and the pathways for proton transfer to the Q(B) site. The mechanism of the first electron transfer,...
