Abstract excerpt
An aspartic acid residue has been introduced near ring V of the L-side accessory bacteriochlorophyll (BCHlL) or the photosynthetic reaction center in a rhodobacter capsulatus mutant in which a His also replaces Leu 212 on the M-polypeptide. The initial stage of charge separation in the G(M201)D/L(M212)H double mutant yields approximately 70 percent electron transfer to the L-side cofactors, approximately 15...
