Photochemically active pigment-protein complexes from the green photosynthetic bacterium Prosthecochloris aestuarii.
Photochemically active pigment-protein complexes were prepared from a bacteriochlorophyll a containing membrane preparation of the green photosynthetic bacterium Prosthecochloris aestuarii. The preparations contained about 75 and 35 bacteriochlorophyll a molecules per reaction center and had molecular weights of 6 . 10(5) and 3.5 . 10(5), respectively. Some of the other properties of these preparations are described.
