There is no complete consensus regarding the kinetics of the elementary steps involved in the overall trapping, especially the rate of primary charge separation. In this work, we employed two-dimensional coherent electronic spectroscopy to follow the dynamics of energy and electron transfer in a monomeric PSI complex from Synechocystis PCC 6803, containing only subunits A-E, K, and M, at 77 K. We also determined the structure of the complex to 4.3 A resolution by cryoelectron microscopy with refinements to 2.5 A. We applied structure-based modeling using a combined Redfield-Forster theory to compute the excitation dynamics. The absorptive 2D electronic spectra revealed fast excitonic/vibronic relaxation on time scales of 50-100 fs from the high-energy side of the absorption spectrum. Antenna excitations were funneled within 1 ps to a small pool of chlorophylls absorbing around 687 nm, thereafter decaying with 4-20 ps lifetimes, independently of excitation wavelength. Redfield-Forster energy transfer computations showed that the kinetics is limited by transfer from these red-shifted pigments. The rate of primary charge separation, upon direct excitation of the reaction center, was determined to be 1.2-1.5 ps(-1). This result implies activationless electron transfer in PSI.
