Abstract excerpt
Interprotein electron transfer plays an important role in biological energy conversion. In this work, the electron transfer reaction between cytochrome c(2) (cyt) and the reaction center (RC) was studied to determine the mechanisms coupling association and electron transfer. Previous studies have shown that mutation of hydrophobic residues in the reaction interface, particularly Tyr L162, changes the binding...
