Abstract excerpt
The kinetics of electron transfer from phyllosemiquinone (PhQ(*-)) to the iron sulfur cluster F(X) in Photosystem I (PS I) are described by lifetimes of approximately 20 and approximately 250 ns. These two rates are attributed to reactions involving the quinones bound primarily by the PsaB (PhQ(B)) and PsaA (PhQ(A)) subunits, respectively. The factors leading to a approximately 10-fold difference between the...
