PHOTOSYNTHETIC REACTION CENTER BLASTOCHLORIS VIRIDIS (ATCC)
Structural highlights
FunctionCYCR_BLAVI The reaction center of purple bacteria contains a tightly bound cytochrome molecule which re-reduces the photo oxidized primary electron donor.[1] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe structure of the Blastochloris viridis photosynthetic reaction center has been determined at 100 K by flash-freezing crystals. A data set to 2.2 A resolution provides a well determined model of the wild-type protein. Of particular interest are the position, occupancy and heterogeneity of the Q(B)-binding site. Data were also collected from a crystal frozen immediately after illumination. The data support predominant binding of Q(B) in the proximal position in both the neutral and charge-separated states.
