Function
RCEM_BLAVI The reaction center is a membrane-bound complex that mediates the initial photochemical event in the electron transfer process of photosynthesis.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
X-ray free electron laser (X-FEL)-based serial femtosecond crystallography is an emerging method with potential to rapidly advance the challenging field of membrane protein structural biology. Here we recorded interpretable diffraction data from micrometer-sized lipidic sponge phase crystals of the Blastochloris viridis photosynthetic reaction center delivered into an X-FEL beam using a sponge phase micro-jet.
