Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome c2 (cyt) is the mobile electron donor to the reaction center (RC) in photosynthetic bacteria. The electrostatic interactions involved in the dynamics of docking of cyt onto the RC were examined by double mutant studies of the rates of electron transfer between six modified Rhodobacter sphaeroides RCs in which negatively charged acid residues were replaced with Lys and five modified Rhodobacter...
