Abstract: The major goal of this project is to characterize the structure and function of the pigment-protein complexes from the photosynthetic membrane, including the light-harvesting complex I, the PSI core complex and the cytochrome b6f complex. A combination of multiple spectroscopies are used to study the quantum mechanism for the capture, transfer and conversion of light energy by the photosynthetic apparatus. To further understand the mechanism and to elucidate the physical basis of photosynthesis at the atomic or near-atomic level, high quality membrane protein crystals are expected for structure determination. The genes that are involved in the assembly of photosynthetic membrane, in the transfer and conversion mechanism of light energy, and in the regulation of photosynthesis function, are also investigated to reveal the molecular mechanisms of photoinhibition of the reaction center and photo-oxidation regulation. The study is to provide a theoretical basis for improving the light energy conversion efficiency.
Key Words: Photosystem I; Light-harvesting complex I; PSI core complex; Cytochrome b6f; Photosynthetic membrane proteins
