Abstract excerpt
A 51 bp section of the Rhodobacter capsulatus photosynthetic reaction center M subunit gene (nucleotides M562-M612 of the pufM structural sequence) encoding amino acids M187-M203 was replaced by the homologous region of the L subunit gene. This resulted in the symmetrization of much of the amino acid environment of the reaction center initial electron donor, P. This is the first in a series of large-scale...
