Abstract excerpt
We demonstrate coupling of an intraprotein electron transfer reaction to coherent vibrational motions. The kinetics of charge separation toward the radical pair state P(+)H(L)(-) were studied in reaction centers of Rhodobacter sphaeroides at 15 K. The electrochromic shift of the bacteriochlorophyll monomers is the most prominent spectral feature associated with this charge displacement. The newly reported...
