At cryogenic temperatures, the Red Chls become quasi-traps for excitations as uphill energy transfer is blocked. One pathway for de-excitation of the Red Chls is via transfer to the oxidized RC (P700+), which has broad absorption in the near-infrared region. This study investigates the excitation dynamics of Red Chls in Photosystem I from the cyanobacterium Thermostichus vulcanus at cryogenic temperatures (77 K) and examines the role of the oxidized RC in modulating their fluorescence kinetics. Using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, the kinetics of Red Chls were recorded for samples with open (neutral P700) and closed (P700+) RCs. We found that emission lifetimes in the range of 710–720 nm remained unaffected by the RC state, while more red-shifted emissions (>730 nm) decayed significantly faster when the RC was closed. A kinetic model describing the quenching by the oxidized RC was constructed based on simultaneous fitting to the recorded fluorescence emission in Photosystem I with open and closed RCs. The analysis resolved multiple Red Chl forms and variable quenching efficiencies correlated with their spectral properties. Only the most red-shifted Chls, with emission beyond 730 nm, are efficiently quenched by P700+, with rate constants of up to 6 ns−1. The modeling results support the notion that structural and energetic disorder in Photosystem I can have a comparable or larger effect on the excitation dynamics than the geometric arrangement of Chls.}, DOI = {10.3390/ijms252212430} } @article{doi:10.1021/jacs.4c06695, author = {Liguori, Nicoletta and van Stokkum, Ivo H.M. and Muzzopappa, Fernando and Kennis, John T.

Various standard commercial instruments are available for characterization of photosynthetic material like leaves or microalgae, most of which integrate the overall fluorescence signals above a certain cut-off wavelength. However, wavelength-resolved (fluorescence signals appearing at different wavelengths having different time dependent decay) signals contain vast information required to decompose complex signals and processes into their underlying components that can untangle the photo-physiological process of photosynthesis. Hence, to address this we describe an advanced chlorophyll fluorescence spectrometer - ChloroSpec - allowing three-dimensional simultaneous detection of fluorescence intensities at different wavelengths in a time-resolved manner. We demonstrate for a variety of typical examples that most of the generally used fluorescence parameters are strongly wavelength dependent. This indicates a pronounced heterogeneity and a highly dynamic nature of the thylakoid and the photosynthetic apparatus under actinic illumination. Furthermore, we provide examples of advanced global analysis procedures integrating this three-dimensional signal and relevant information extracted from them that relate to the physiological properties of the organism. This conveniently obtained broad range of data can make ChloroSpec a new standard tool in photosynthesis research.}, year = {2024} } @article{doi:10.1021/acs.jpclett.4c01555, author = {van Stokkum, Ivo H.M. and Snellenburg, Joris J. and Chrupkov{\'{a}}, Petra and Dostal, Jakub and Weigand, Sebastian and Wei{\ss}enborn, J{\"o}rn and Kennis, John T.M. and Kloz, Miroslav}, title = {Target Analysis Resolves the Ground and Excited State Properties from Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Spectra}, journal = {The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters}, volume = {15}, number = {0}, pages = {9397-9404}, year = {2024}, doi = {10.1021/acs.jpclett.4c01555}, note ={PMID: 39241188}, URL = { https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.4c01555}, eprint = { https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.4c01555} } @article{CHRUPKOVA2024168625, title = {Raman Vibrational Signatures of Excited States of Echinenone in the Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP) and Implications for its Photoactivation Mechanism}, journal = {Journal of Molecular Biology}, volume = {436}, number = {16}, pages = {168625}, year = {2024}, issn = {0022-2836}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.2024.168625}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022283624002201}, author = {Petra Chrupkov{\'{a}} and Ivo H.M. {van Stokkum} and Thomas Friedrich and Marcus Moldenhauer and Nediljko Budisa and Hsueh-Wei Tseng and Tom{\'{a}}s Pol{\'{i}}vka and Dmitry A.

Time-resolved experiments, employing both Transient Absorption (TA) and Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Spectroscopy (FSRS), reveal different states in the OCP photoactivation process. The time-resolved studies indicate vibrational signatures of exited states positioned above the S1 state during the initial 140 fs of carotenoid evolution in OCP, an absence of a vibrational signature for the relaxed S1 state of echinenone in OCP, and more robust signatures of a highly excited ground state (GS) in OCP. Differences in S1 state vibration population signatures between OCP and solvents are attributed to distinct conformations of echinenone in OCP and hydrogen bonds at the keto group forming a short-lived intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) state. The vibrational dynamics of the hot GS in OCP show a more pronounced red shift of ground state CC vibration compared to echinenone in solvents, thus suggesting an unusually hot form of GS. The study proposes a hypothesis for the photoactivation mechanism of OCP, emphasizing the high level of vibrational excitation in longitudinal stretching modes as a driving force. In conclusion, the comparison of vibrational signatures reveals unique dynamics of energy dissipation in OCP, providing insights into the photoactivation mechanism and highlighting the impact of the protein environment on carotenoid behavior. The study underscores the importance of vibrational analysis in understanding the intricate processes involved in early phase OCP photoactivation.} } @Article{ijms25074125, AUTHOR = {van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Moreover, the identified light-induced isomeric switching processes on the ground state potential energy surface disclose a multi-isomerization activation mechanism that has so far remained unknown for rhodopsin. Bestrhodopsins constitute a class of light-regulated pentameric ion channels that consist of one or two rhodopsins in tandem fused with bestrophin ion channel domains. Here, we report on the isomerization dynamics in the rhodopsin tandem domains of Phaeocystis antarctica bestrhodopsin, which binds all-trans retinal Schiff-base (RSB) absorbing at 661 nm and, upon illumination, converts to the meta-stable P540 state with an unusual 11-cis RSB. The primary photoproduct P682 corresponds to a mixture of highly distorted 11-cis and 13-cis RSB directly formed from the excited state in 1.4 ps. P673 evolves from P682 in 500 ps and contains highly distorted 13-cis RSB, indicating that the 11-cis fraction in P682 converts to 13-cis. Next, P673 establishes an equilibrium with P595 in 1.2 µs, during which RSB converts to 11-cis and then further proceeds to P560 in 48 µs and P540 in 1.0 ms while remaining 11-cis. Hence, extensive isomeric switching occurs on the early ground state potential energy surface (PES) on the hundreds of ps to µs timescale before finally settling on a metastable 11-cis photoproduct. We propose that P682 and P673 are trapped high up on the ground-state PES after passing through either of two closely located conical intersections that result in 11-cis and 13-cis RSB. Co-rotation of C11=C12 and C13=C14 bonds results in a constricted conformational landscape that allows thermal switching between 11-cis and 13-cis species of highly strained RSB chromophores. Protein relaxation may release RSB strain, allowing it to evolve to a stable 11-cis isomeric configuration in microseconds.}} @ARTICLE{10.3389/fpls.2023.1300532, AUTHOR={Biswas, Avratanu and Akhtar, Parveen and Lambrev, Petar H. and van Stokkum, Ivo H.M. }, TITLE={Energy transfer from phycobilisomes to photosystem I at room temperature}, JOURNAL={Frontiers in Plant Science}, VOLUME={14}, YEAR={2024}, URL={https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/plant-science/articles/10.3389/fpls.2023.1300532}, DOI={10.3389/fpls.2023.1300532}, ISSN={1664-462X}, ABSTRACT={

The phycobilisomes function as the primary light-harvesting antennae in cyanobacteria and red algae, effectively harvesting and transferring excitation energy to both photosystems. Here we investigate the direct energy transfer route from the phycobilisomes to photosystem I at room temperature in a mutant of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 that lacks photosystem II. The excitation dynamics are studied by picosecond time-resolved fluorescence measurements in combination with global and target analysis. Global analysis revealed several fast equilibration time scales and a decay of the equilibrated system with a time constant of ≈220 ps. From simultaneous target analysis of measurements with two different excitations of 400 nm (chlorophyll a) and 580 nm (phycobilisomes) a transfer rate of 42 ns-1 from the terminal emitter of the phycobilisome to photosystem I was estimated.

Phycobilisomes serve as a light-harvesting antenna of both photosystem I (PSI) and II (PSII) in cyanobacteria, yet direct energy transfer from phycobilisomes to PSI is not well documented. Here we recorded picosecond time-resolved fluorescence at wavelengths of 605–760 nm in isolated photosystem I (PSI), phycobilisomes and intact cells of a PSII-deficient mutant of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 at 77 K to study excitation energy transfer and trapping. By means of a simultaneous target analysis of the kinetics of isolated complexes and whole cells, the pathways and dynamics of energy transfer in vitro and in vivo were established. We establish that the timescale of the slowest equilibration between different terminal emitters in the phycobilisome is ≈800 ps. It was estimated that the terminal emitter in about 40% of the phycobilisomes transfers its energy with a rate constant of 42 ns−1 to PSI. This energy transfer rate is higher than the rates of equilibration within the phycobilisome – between the rods and the core or between the core cylinders – and is evidence for the existence of specific phycobilisome-PSI interactions. The rest of the phycobilisomes remain unconnected or slowly transferring energy to PSI.

At the most comparable terrestrial Martian analogue sites, life often occurs in endolithic form; i.e. hiding below the surface. To detect biomarkers of endolithic life, the two most promising options are drilling or measuring through the surface, the latter being less invasive and preferable. Raman spectroscopy is an established chemical identification method, and advanced Raman modes have been developed for sub-surface analysis. Time-resolved Raman spectroscopy (TRRS), based on picosecond pulsed excitation and a gated intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) detector, adds the capability of fluorescence suppression and depth selection. This paper focuses on the separation of layers with time differences that are much smaller than the full width at half-maximum gating time of the detector. As an analogue for endolithic life on Mars, Deinococcus radiodurans bacteria were measured through a and top layer of translucent calcite. TRRS spectra were recorded in a backscattering geometry, while stepwise increasing the detector delay in steps. Through both of these layers, the Raman spectrum of the bacteria�s carotenoids could be detected. Global analysis was used to model a complete time-resolved spectrum of the sample. Using this analysis, the signals could be separated into three components: mineral Raman, bacterial Raman and bacterial fluorescence. The model also corrects for gating differences across the horizontal axis of the ICCD camera. With this approach well-separated Raman spectra were obtained even for the calcite layer despite the temporal separation of approximately , which is much shorter than the detector gating time. TRRS could be a suitable approach for non-invasive detection of extraterrestrial subsurface biomarkers.} } @article{JCP2021, author = {van Stokkum,Ivo H.

Here, the donor–acceptor dyes 4,7-bis[5-[4-(3-ethylheptyl)-2,3-difluorophenyl]-2-thienyl]-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (2,3-FFPTB) and 4,7-bis[5-[4-(3-ethylheptyl)-2,6-difluorophenyl]-2-thienyl]-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (2,6-FFPTB) are synthesized, which only differ in the position of one fluorine substitution. It is observed that this variation in chemical structure does not influence the energetic position of the molecular frontier orbitals or the ultrafast dynamics on the FFPTB backbone. However, it does result in differences at the macroscale, specifically regarding structural and electrical properties of the FFPTB films. Both FFPTB molecules form crystalline films at room temperature, whereas 2,3-FFPTB has two ordered smectic phases at elevated temperatures, and 2,6-FFPTB does not display any liquid crystalline phases. It is demonstrated that the altered location of the fluorine substitution allows to control the electrostatic potential along the molecular backbone without impacting molecular energetics or ultrafast dynamics. Such a design strategy succeeds in controlling molecular interactions in liquid crystalline phase, and it is shown that the associated molecular order, or rather disorder, can be exploited to achieve ambipolar transport in FFPTB films.}, year = {2021} } @article{TROS2020148206, title = {Harvesting far-red light: Functional integration of chlorophyll f into Photosystem I complexes of Synechococcus sp.

In this study, we investigate the functional binding of Chl f to the Photosystem I (PSI) of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus 7002, which has been engineered to express the Chl f synthase gene. By optimizing growth light conditions, one-to-four Chl f pigments were found in the complexes. By using a range of spectroscopic techniques, isolated PSI trimeric complexes were investigated to determine how the insertion of Chl f affects excitation energy transfer and trapping efficiency. The results show that the Chls f are functionally connected to the reaction center of the PSI complex and their presence does not change the overall pigment organization of the complex. Chl f substitutes Chl a (but not the Chl a red forms) while maintaining efficient energy transfer within the PSI complex. At the same time, the introduction of Chl f extends the photosynthetically active radiation of the new hybrid PSI complexes up to 750 nm, which is advantageous in far-red light enriched environments. These conclusions provide insights to engineer the photosynthetic machinery of crops to include Chl f and therefore increase the light-harvesting capability of photosynthesis.} } @article{JCP2020, author = {van Stokkum,Ivo H.

They do so by switching from a light-harvesting state to a quenched state, dissipating the excess absorbed energy as heat. However, isolated LHCs are prevalently in their light-harvesting state, which makes the identification of their photoprotective mechanism extremely challenging. Here, ensemble time-resolved fluorescence experiments show that monomeric CP29, a minor LHC of plants, exists in various emissive states with identical spectra but different lifetimes. The photoprotective mechanism active in a subpopulation of strongly quenched complexes is further investigated via ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy, kinetic modeling, and mutational analysis. We demonstrate that the observed quenching is due to excitation energy transfer from chlorophylls to a dark state of the centrally bound lutein." } @article {Tian8320, author = {Tian, Lijin and Nawrocki, Wojciech J. and Liu, Xin and Polukhina, Iryna and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Under low light, they maximize their capacity to harvest photons; however, under excess light, they dissipate part of the harvested energy to prevent photodamage, at the expense of light-use efficiency. Optimally balancing light harvesting and energy dissipation in natural (fluctuating light) conditions is considered a target for improving the productivity of both algae and plants. Here we have studied the energy dissipation process in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in vivo. We found that it is remarkably different from that of higher plants, highlighting the need of developing tailor-made strategies to optimize the light harvesting{\textendash}energy dissipation balance in different organisms.Sunlight drives photosynthesis but can also cause photodamage. To protect themselves, photosynthetic organisms dissipate the excess absorbed energy as heat, in a process known as nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ). In green algae, diatoms, and mosses, NPQ depends on the light-harvesting complex stress-related (LHCSR) proteins. Here we investigated NPQ in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii using an approach that maintains the cells in a stable quenched state. We show that in the presence of LHCSR3, all of the photosystem (PS) II complexes are quenched and the LHCs are the site of quenching, which occurs at a rate of \~{}150 ps-1 and is not induced by LHCII aggregation. The effective light-harvesting capacity of PSII decreases upon NPQ, and the NPQ rate is independent of the redox state of the reaction center. Finally, we could measure the pH dependence of NPQ, showing that the luminal pH is always above 5.5 in vivo and highlighting the role of LHCSR3 as an ultrasensitive pH sensor.}, issn = {0027-8424}, URL = {https://www.pnas.org/content/116/17/8320}, eprint = {https://www.pnas.org/content/116/17/8320.full.pdf}, journal = {Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences} } @article{RN1673, author = {Konold, Patrick E. and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

The rods and core contain phycocyanin and allophycocyanin pigments, respectively. Together these pigments absorb light between 400 and 650�nm. Time-resolved difference absorption spectra from wild-type PB and rod mutants have been measured in different quenching and annihilation conditions. Based upon a global analysis of these data and of published time-resolved emission spectra, a functional compartmental model of the phycobilisome is proposed. The model describes all experiments with a common set of parameters. Three annihilation time constants are estimated, 3, 25, and 147�ps, which represent, respectively, intradisk, interdisk/intracylinder, and intercylinder annihilation. The species-associated difference absorption and emission spectra of two phycocyanin and two allophycocyanin pigments are consistently estimated, as well as all the excitation energy transfer rates. Thus, the wild-type PB containing 396 pigments can be described by a functional compartmental model of 22 compartments. When the interhexamer equilibration within a rod is not taken into account, this can be further simplified to ten compartments, which is the minimal model. In this model, the slowest excitation energy transfer rates are between the core cylinders (time constants 115--145�ps), and between the rods and the core (time constants 68--115�ps).", volume = {135}, number = {1}, pages = {87-102}, ISSN = {1573-5079}, DOI = {10.1007/s11120-017-0424-5}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/s11120-017-0424-5}, year = {2018}, type = {Journal Article} } @article{SNELLENBURG2017854, title = {{A four state parametric model for the kinetics of the non-photochemical quenching in Photosystem II}}, journal = "Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics", volume = "1858", number = "10", pages = "854 - 864", year = "2017", issn = "0005-2728", doi = "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbabio.2017.08.004", url = "http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0005272817301172", author = "Joris J.

One of the relatively rapid (a few minutes) responses is activated when the cells are exposed to high light intensities. This mechanism thermally dissipates excitation energy at the level of the phycobilisome (PB) antenna before it reaches the reaction center. When exposed to low intensities of light that modify the redox state of the plastoquinone pool, the so-called state transitions redistribute energy between photosystem I and II. Experimental techniques to investigate the underlying mechanisms of these responses, such as pulse-amplitude modulated fluorometry, are based on spectrally integrated signals. Previously, a spectrally resolved fluorometry method has been introduced to preserve spectral information. The analysis method introduced in this work allows to interpret SRF data in terms of species-associated spectra of open/closed reaction centers (RCs), (un)quenched PB and state 1 versus state 2. Thus, spectral differences in the time-dependent fluorescence signature of photosynthetic organisms under varying light conditions can be traced and assigned to functional emitting species leading to a number of interpretations of their molecular origins.

For optimal functioning, these activities need to be balanced. This is achieved by redistribution of excitation energy between the two photosystems via the association and disassociation of light-harvesting complexes (LHC) II, in a process known as state transitions. Here we study the effect of {LHCII} binding to PSI on its absorption properties and trapping efficiency by comparing time-resolved fluorescence kinetics of PSI-LHCI and PSI-LHCI-{LHCII} complexes of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. PSI-LHCI-{LHCII} of C. reinhardtii is the largest PSI supercomplex isolated so far and contains seven Lhcbs, in addition to the PSI core and the nine Lhcas that compose PSI-LHCI, together binding similar to 320 chlorophylls. The average decay time for PSI-LHCI-{LHCII} is similar to 65 ps upon 400 nm excitation (15 ps slower than PSI-LHCI) and similar to 78 ps upon 475 nm excitation (27 ps slower). The transfer of excitation energy from {LHCII} to PSI-LHCI occurs in similar to 60 ps. This relatively slow transfer, as compared with that from LHCI to the PSI core, suggests loose connectivity between {LHCII} and PSI-LHCI. Despite the relatively slow transfer, the overall decay time of PSI-LHCI-{LHCII} remains fast enough to assure a 96% trapping efficiency, which is only 1.4% lower than that of PSI-LHCI, concomitant with an increase of the absorption cross section of 47%. This indicates that, at variance with PSII, the design of PSI allows for a large increase of its light-harvesting capacities.}, ISSN = {0021-9258}, DOI = {10.1074/jbc.M115.687970}, url = {://WOS:000366738200033}, year = {2015}, type = {Journal Article} } @article{LeQuiniou2015458, title = "{PSI-LHCI of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: Increasing the absorption cross section without losing efficiency} ", journal = "Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics ", volume = "1847", number = "4-5", pages = "458 - 467", year = "2015", note = "", issn = "0005-2728", doi = "http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.bbabio.2015.02.001", url = "http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0005272815000250", author = "Clotilde Le Quiniou and Lijin Tian and Bartlomiej Drop and Emilie Wientjes and Ivo H.M. van Stokkum and Bart van Oort and Roberta Croce", } @article{Bart2015, author = {van Oort, B. and van Grondelle, R. and van Stokkum, I.

Aggregation of {LHCII} is associated with fluorescence quenching, and is used as an in vitro model system of NPQ. However, there is no agreement on the nature of the quencher and on the validity of aggregation as a model system. Here, we use ultrafast multipulse spectroscopy to populate a quenched state in unquenched (unaggregated) {LHCII}. The state shows characteristic features of lutein and chlorophyll, suggesting that it is an excitonically coupled state between these two compounds. This state decays in approximately 10 ps, making it a strong competitor for photodamage and photochemical quenching. It is observed in trimeric and monomeric {LHCII}, upon re-excitation with pulses of different wavelengths and duration. We propose that this state is always present, but is scarcely populated under low light intensities. Under high light intensities it may become more accessible, e.g. by conformational changes, and then form a quenching channel. The same state may be the cause of fluorescence blinking observed in single-molecule spectroscopy of {LHCII} trimers, where a small subpopulation is in an energetically higher state where the pathway to the quencher opens up.}, ISSN = {1520-6106}, DOI = {10.1021/acs.jpcb.5b01335}, url = {://WOS:000353604800009}, year = {2015}, type = {Journal Article} } @article{doi:10.1021/jp506785q, author = {Zhu, Jingyi and Vreede, Jocelyne and Hospes, Marijke and Arents, Jos and Kennis, John T.

Thus, light-harvesting complex \{II\} ({LHCII}) can switch between the photosystems consequently transferring more excitation energy to \{PSII\} (state 1) or to \{PSI\} (state 2) or can end up in {LHCII}-only domains. In this study, low-temperature (77 K) steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence measured on intact cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii shows that independently of the state excitation energy transfer from \{{LHCII}\} to \{PSI\} or to \{PSII\} occurs on two main timescales of <15� ps and ∼100 ps. Moreover, in state 1 almost all \{{LHCII}s\} are functionally connected to PSII, whereas the transition from state 1 to a state 2 chemically locked by 0.1� M sodium fluoride leads to an almost complete functional release of \{{LHCII}s\} from PSII. About 2/3 of the released \{{LHCII}s\} transfer energy to \{PSI\} and ∼1/3 of the released \{{LHCII}s\} form a component designated X-685 peaking at 685� nm that decays with time constants of 0.28 and 5.8� ns and does not transfer energy to \{PSI\} or to PSII. A less complete state 2 was obtained in cells incubated under anaerobic conditions without chemical locking. In this state about half of all \{{LHCII}s\} remained functionally connected to PSII, whereas the remaining half became functionally connected to \{PSI\} or formed X-685 in similar amounts as with chemical locking. We demonstrate that X-685 originates from \{{LHCII}\} domains not connected to a photosystem and that its presence introduces a change in the interpretation of 77 K steady-state fluorescence emission measured upon state transitions in Chalamydomonas reinhardtii.

These mechanisms are particularly relevant in diatoms, which grow in highly fluctuating light environments and thus require fast and strong response to changing light conditions. We performed transient absorption spectroscopy on FCPa, the main light-harvesting antenna from the diatom Cyclotella meneghiniana, in the unquenched and quenched state. Our results show that in quenched \{FCPa\} two quenching channels are active and are characterized by differing rate constants and distinct spectroscopic signatures. One channel is associated with a faster quenching rate (16 ns− 1) and virtually no difference in spectral shape compared to the bulk unquenched chlorophylls, while a second channel is associated with a slower quenching rate (2.7 ns− 1) and exhibits an increased population of red-emitting states. We discuss the origin of the two processes in the context of the models proposed for the regulation of photosynthetic light-harvesting.

Recently, an in vitro reconstitution system was developed using isolated OCP and isolated PBs from Synechocystis PCC 6803. Here we have used spectrally resolved picosecond fluorescence to study wild-type and two mutated PBs. The results demonstrate that the quenching for all types of PBs takes place on an allophycocyanin bilin emitting at 660 nm (APC(Q)(660)) with a molecular quenching rate that is faster than (1 ps)(-1). Moreover, it is concluded that both the mechanism and the site of quenching are the same in vitro and in vivo. Thus, utilization of the in vitro system should make it possible in the future to elucidate whether the quenching is caused by charge transfer between APC(Q)(660) and OCP or by excitation energy transfer from APC(Q)(660) to the S-1 state of the carotenoid-a distinction that is very hard, if not impossible, to make in vivo.}, year = {2012} } @ARTICLE{Mathes2012a, author = {Mathes, T. and Zhu, J.

The fast and slow decaying triplets exhibit different spectral signatures in the carbonyl region. The fast component generated at all excitation wavelengths is from a major conformer with a lactone stretching mode bleach at 1745 cm1. One (1720 cm1) and two (1720 cm1 and 1741 cm1) different Per conformers are observed for the slow component upon 670- and 530480-nm excitation, respectively. The above result implies that 3Per triplets are formed via two different pathways, corroborating and complementing visible triplet-singlet (T-S) spectra (Kleima et al., Biochemistry (2000), 39, 5184). Surprisingly, all difference spectra show that Per and Chl-a modes are simultaneously present during the 3Per decay, implying significant involvement of 3Chl-a in the 3Per state. We suggest that this Per-Chl-a interaction via a delocalized triplet state lowers the 3Per energy and thus provides a general, photoprotection mechanism for light-harvesting antenna complexes. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.107.106674}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/93/6/2118.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/93/6/2118} } @ARTICLE{BaffreauJ._jp066415+, author = {Baffreau, J. and Leroy-Lhez, S. and Hudhomme, P. and Groeneveld, M.M. and van Stokkum, I.

In this paper, the pathways of excited-state energy transfer and relaxation in PCP were identified by means of femtosecond visible-pump, mid-infrared probe spectroscopy. In addition, excited-state relaxation of peridinin dissolved in organic solvent (CHCl3 and MeOH) was investigated. For peridinin in solution, the transient IR signatures of the low-lying S-1 and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) states were similar, in line with a previous ultrafast IR study. In PCP, excitation of the optically allowed S-2 state of peridinin results in ultrafast energy transfer to Chl-a, in competition with internal conversion to low-lying optically forbidden states of peridinin. After vibrational relaxation of the peridinin hot S-1 state in 150 fs, two separate low-lying peridinin singlet excited states are distinguished, assigned to an ICT state and to a slowly transferring, vibrationally relaxed S-1 state. These states exhibit different lactone bleaches, indicating that the ICT and S-1 states localize on distinct peridinins. Energy transfer from the peridinin ICT state to Chl-a constitutes the dominant energy transfer channel and occurs with a time constant of 2 ps. The peridinin S-1 state mainly decays to the ground state through internal conversion, in competition with slow energy transfer to Chl-a. The singlet excited state of Chl-a undergoes intersystem crossing (ISC) to the triplet state on the nanosecond timescale, followed by rapid triplet excitation energy transfer (TEET) from Chl-a to peridinin, whereby no Chl-a triplet is observed but rather a direct rise of the peridinin triplet. The latter contains some Chl-a features due to excitonic coupling of the pigments. The peridinin triplet state shows a lactone bleach mode at 1748 cm(-1), while that of the peridinin ICT state is located at 1745 cm(-1), indicating that the main channels of singlet and triplet energy transfer in PCP proceed through distinct peridinins. Our results are consistent with an energy transfer scheme where the ICT state mainly localizes on Per621/611 and Per623/613, the S1 state on Per622/612 and the triplet state on Per624/614.} } @ARTICLE{biophysj.108.139246, author = {Cosimo Bonetti and Tilo Mathes and Ivo H.

Transient absorption signals indicate a subpicosecond excited-state proton-transfer reaction in the pB state that results in chromophore deprotonation prior to the cis-trans isomerization required in the photorecovery dynamics of the pG state.

Two spectral species were found in the chlorophyll T-S spectra of CP47, which may arise from a difference in ligation of the pigments or from an additional hydrogen bond, similar to what has been found for Chl molecules in a variety of solvents. The T-S spectra show that the lowest lying state in CP47 is at approximately 685 nm and gives rise to fluorescence at 690 nm at 4 K. The fluorescence quantum yield is 0.11 +/- 0.03 at 4 K, the chlorophyll triplet yield is 0.16 +/- 0.03. Carotenoid triplets are formed efficiently at 4 K through triplet transfer from chlorophyll with a yield of 0.15 +/- 0.02. The major decay channel of the lowest excited state in CP47 is internal conversion, with a quantum yield of about 0.58. Increase of the temperature results in a broadening and blue shift of the spectra due to the equilibration of the excitation over the antenna pigments. Upon increasing the temperature, a decrease of the fluorescence and triplet yields is observed to, at 270 K, a value of about 55% of the low temperature value. This decrease is significantly larger than of chlorophyll a in Triton X-100. Although the coupling to low-frequency phonon or vibration modes of the pigments is probably intermediate in CP47, the temperature dependence of the triplet and fluorescence quantum yield can be modeled using the energy gap law in the strong coupling limit of Englman and Jortner (1970. J. Mol. Phys. 18:145-164) for non-radiative decays. This yields for CP47 an average frequency of the promoting/accepting modes of 350 cm-1 with an activation energy of 650 cm-1 for internal conversion and activationless intersystem crossing to the triplet state through a promoting mode with a frequency of 180 cm-1. For chlorophyll a in Triton X-100 the average frequency of the promoting modes for non-radiative decay is very similar, but the activation energy (300 cm-1) is significantly smaller. }, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/68/1/281.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/68/1/281} } @ARTICLE{i99a, author = {Groot, M-L and Frese, RN and de Weerd, FL and Bromek, K and Pettersson {\AA} and Peterman, EJG and van Stokkum, I.

Both time-gated spectra and single wavelength traces were measured. Global analysis of the data established that in the time domain between 5 ns and 2 s only two intermediates are involved in the room temperature photocycle of PYP, as has been proposed before (Meyer T.E., E. Yakali, M. A. Cusanovich, and G. Tollin. 1987. Biochemistry. 26:418-423; Meyer, T. E., G. Tollin, T. P. Causgrove, P. Cheng, and R. E. Blankenship. 1991. Biophys. J. 59:988-991). The first, red-shifted intermediate decays biexponentially (60% with tau = 0.25 ms and 40% with tau = 1.2 ms) to a blue-shifted intermediate. The last step of the photocycle is the biexponential (93% with tau = 0.15 s and 7% with tau = 2.0 s) recovery to the ground state of the protein. Reconstruction of the absolute spectra of these photointermediates yielded absorbance maxima of about 465 and 355 nm for the red- and blue-shifted intermediate with an epsilon max at about 50% and 40% relative to the epsilon max of the ground state. The quantitative analysis of the photocycle in PYP described here paves the way to a detailed biophysical analysis of the processes occurring in this photoreceptor molecule. }, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/67/4/1691.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/67/4/1691} } @ARTICLE{Hoff1997, author = {Hoff, Wouter D. and Van Stokkum, Ivo H.

The folding and unfolding processes were triggered by an ultrafast laser pulse that isomerized the cross linker within a few picoseconds. The main folding and unfolding times (700 ns and 150 ns, respectively, at room temperature) are in line with previous T-jump experiments obtained from similar peptides. However, both processes show complex, strongly temperature-dependent spectral kinetics that deviate clearly from a single-exponential behavior. Whereas in the unfolding experiment the ensemble starts from a well defined folded state, the starting ensemble in the folding experiment is more heterogeneous, which leads to distinctly different kinetics of the experiments, because they are sensitive to different regions of the energy surface. A qualitative agreement with the experimental data-set can be obtained by a model where the unfolded states act as a hub connected to several separated "misfolded" states with a distribution of rates. We conclude that a rather large spread of rates (k1 : kn {approx} 9) is needed to explain the experimentally observed stretched exponential response with stretching factor {$\beta$} = 0.8 at 279 K. }, doi = {10.1073/pnas.0607748104}, eprint = {http://www.pnas.org/cgi/reprint/104/13/5383.pdf}, url = {http://www.pnas.org/cgi/content/abstract/104/13/5383} } @ARTICLE{JanneA.Ihalainen10012002, author = {Ihalainen, Janne A. and Jensen, Poul Erik and Haldrup, Anna and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

For this purpose, the protein was labeled at seven key positions. This places the label at well-defined locations from the water phase to the center of the hydrophobic acyl chain region of a phospholipid model membrane, providing us with a nanoscale ruler to map membranes. Analysis of the time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopic data provides the characteristic time constant for the twisting motion of the BADAN label, which is sensitive to the local flexibility of the protein-lipid environment. In addition, we obtain information about the mobility of water molecules at the membrane-water interface. The results provide an unprecedented nanoscale profiling of the dynamics and distribution of water in membrane systems. This information gives clear evidence that the actual barrier of membranes for ions and aqueous solvents is located at the region of carbonyl groups of the acyl chains.} } @ARTICLE{RemcoKort07012005, author = {Kort, Remco and O'Brien, Andrea C. and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Wild-type RCs both with and without the quinone electron acceptor QA, were excited at 600 nm (nonselective excitation), 800 nm (direct excitation of the monomeric bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) cofactors), and 860 nm (direct excitation of the dimer of primary donor (P) BChls (PL/PM)). The region between 1600 and 1800 cm-1 encompasses absorption changes associated with carbonyl (C=O) stretch vibrational modes of the cofactors and protein. After photoexcitation of the RC the primary electron donor P excited singlet state (P*) decayed on a timescale of 3.7 ps to the state [IMG]f1.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> (where BL is the accessory BChl electron acceptor). This is the first report of the mid-IR absorption spectrum of [IMG]f2.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> the difference spectrum indicates that the 9-keto C=O stretch of BL is located around 1670-1680 cm-1. After subsequent electron transfer to the bacteriopheophytin HL in [~]1 ps, the state [IMG]f3.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> was formed. A sequential analysis and simultaneous target analysis of the data showed a relaxation of the [IMG]f3.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> radical pair on the [~]20 ps timescale, accompanied by a change in the relative ratio of the [IMG]f4.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> and [IMG]f5.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> bands and by a minor change in the band amplitude at 1640 cm-1 that may be tentatively ascribed to the response of an amide C=O to the radical pair formation. We conclude that the drop in free energy associated with the relaxation of [IMG]f3.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> is due to an increased localization of the electron hole on the PL half of the dimer and a further consequence is a reduction in the electrical field causing the Stark shift of one or more amide C=O oscillators. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.108.130880}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/95/3/1268.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/95/3/1268} } @ARTICLE{Pawlowicz10152007, author = {Pawlowicz, N.

We have used time-resolved visible pump/midinfrared probe spectroscopy in the region between 1600 and 1800 cm1 to study the energy transfer and charge separation events within PSII cores. The absorption difference spectra in the region of the keto and ester chlorophyll modes show spectral evolution with time constants of 3 ps, 27 ps, 200 ps, and 2 ns. Comparison of infrared (IR) difference spectra obtained for the isolated antennas CP43 and CP47 and the D1D2-RC with those measured for the PSII core allowed us to identify the features specific for each of the PSII core components. From the presence of the CP43 and CP47 specific features in the spectra up to time delays of 2030 ps, we conclude that the main part of the energy transfer from the antennas to the RC occurs on this timescale. Direct excitation of the pigments in the RC evolution associated difference spectra to radical pair formation of [IMG]f1.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> on the same timescale as multi-excitation annihilation and excited state equilibration within the antennas CP43 and CP47, which occur within [~]13 ps. The formation of the earlier radical pair [IMG]f2.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> as identified in isolated D1D2 complexes with time-resolved mid-IR spectroscopy is not observed in the current data, probably because of its relatively low concentration. Relaxation of the state [IMG]f3.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> caused by a drop in free energy, occurs in 200 ps in closed cores. We conclude that the kinetic model proposed earlier for the energy and electron transfer dynamics within the D1D2-RC, plus two slowly energy-transferring antennas C43 and CP47 explain the complex excited state and charge separation dynamics in the PSII core very well. We further show that the time-resolved IR-difference spectrum of [IMG]f1.gif" ALT="Formula" BORDER="0"> as observed in PSII cores is virtually identical to that observed in the isolated D1D2-RC complex of PSII, demonstrating that the local structure of the primary reactants has remained intact in the isolated D1D2 complex. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.107.105452}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/93/8/2732.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/93/8/2732} } @ARTICLE{Pawlowicz2010, author = {Natalia P.

To investigate this process, we performed transient absorption experiments at 77 K with various excitation conditions on the isolated {Photosystem II} reaction center preparations from spinach. The results have been analyzed by global and target analysis and demonstrate that at least two different excited states, (Chl(D1)Phe(D1))* and (P(D1)P(D2)Chl(D1))*, give rise to two different pathways for ultrafast charge separation. We propose that the disorder produced by slow protein motions causes energetic differentiation among reaction center complexes, leading to different charge separation pathways. Because of the low temperature, two excitation energy trap states are also present, generating charge-separated states on long time scales. We conclude that these slow trap states are the same as the excited states that lead to ultrafast charge separation, indicating that at 77 K charge separation can be either activation-less and last or activated and slow.} } @ARTICLE{vanRotterdam2002, author = {van Rotterdam, Bart J. and Crielaard, Wim and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Light absorption by its retinal chromophore initiates a photocycle, driven by trans/cis isomerization, leading to transmembrane translocation of a proton toward the extracellular side of the cytoplasmic membrane. Here we report a study on the photoisomerization dynamics of the retinal chromophore of proteorhodopsin, using femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy, by probing in the visible- and in the midinfrared spectral regions. Experiments were performed both at pH 9.5 (a physiologically relevant pH value in which the primary proton acceptor of the protonated Schiff base, Asp97, is deprotonated) and at pH 6.5 (with Asp97 protonated). Simultaneous analysis of the data sets recorded in the two spectral regions and at both pH values reveals a multiexponential excited state decay, with time constants of [~]0.2 ps, [~]2 ps, and [~]20 ps. From the difference spectra associated with these dynamics, we conclude that there are two chromophore-isomerizaton pathways that lead to the K-state: one with an effective rate of [~](2 ps)-1 and the other with a rate of [~](20 ps)-1. At high pH, both pathways are equally effective, with an estimated quantum yield for K-formation of [~]0.7. At pH 6.5, the slower pathway is less productive, which results in an isomerization quantum yield of 0.5. We further observe an ultrafast response of residue Asp227, which forms part of the counterion complex, corresponding to a strengthening of its hydrogen bond with the Schiff base on K-state formation; and a feature that develops on the 0.2 ps and 2 ps timescale and probably reflects a response of an amide {II} band in reaction to the isomerization process. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.107.121376}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/94/10/4020.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/94/10/4020} } @ARTICLE{alisaJPCB09, author = {Rupenyan, Alisa and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Complexed with NADPH to the enzyme protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (POR), it is reduced to chlorophyllide, a process that Occurs via a set of spectroscopically distinct intermediate states and is initiated from the excited state of PChlide. To obtain a better understanding of these catalytic events, we characterized the excited state dynamics of PChlide in the solvents tetrahydrofuran (THF), methanol, and Tris/Triton buffer using ultrafast transient absorption in the visible and mid-infrared spectral regions and time-resolved fluorescence emission experiments. For comparison, we present time-resolved transient absorption measurements of chlorophyll a in THE From the combined analysis of these experiments, we derive that during the 2-3 ns excited state lifetime an extensive multiphasic quenching of the emission occurs due to solvation of the excited state, which is in agreement with the previously proposed internal charge transfer (ICT) character of the S I state (Zhao, G. J.; Han, K. L. Biophys. J. 2008, 94, 38). The solvation process in methanol occurs in conjunction with a strengthening of a hydrogen bond to the Pchlide keto carbonyl group. We demonstrate that the internal conversion from the S2 to S1 excited states is remarkably slow and stretches out on to the 700 fs time scale, causing a rise of blue-shifted signals in the transient absorption and a gain of emission in the time-resolved fluorescence. A triplet state is populated oil the nanosecond time scale with a maximal yield of similar to 23%. The consequences of these observations for the catalytic pathway and the role of the triplet and ICT state in activation of the enzyme are discussed.} } @ARTICLE{ISI:000291656900023, author = {Toh, K.

In a recent development, PAS-GAF variants were engineered for use as a near-infrared fluorescent marker in mammalian tissues (Tsien and co-workers, Science, 2009, 324, 804-807). Here, we report the fluorescence quantum yield and photochemistry of two highly-related Bphs from Rps. palustris, RpBphP2 (P2) and RpBphP3 (P3) with distinct photoconversion and fluorescence properties. We applied ultrafast spectroscopy to wild type P3 and P2 PAS-GAF proteins and their P3 D216A, Y272F and P2 D202A PAS-GAF-PHY mutant proteins. In these mutants hydrogen-bond interactions between a conserved aspartate (Asp) which connects the BV chromophore with the PHY domains are disrupted. The excited-state lifetime of the truncated P3 and P2 PAS-GAF proteins was significantly longer than in their PAS-GAF-PHY counterparts that constitute the full photosensory core. Mutation of the conserved Asp to Ala in the PAS-GAF-PHY protein had a similar but larger effect. The fluorescence quantum yields of the P3 D216A and Y272F mutants were 0.066, higher than that of wild type P3 (0.043) and similar to the engineered Bph of Tsien and co-workers. We conclude that elimination of a key hydrogen-bond interaction between Asp and a conserved Arg in the PHY domain is responsible for the excited-state lifetime increase in all Bph variants studied here. H/D exchange resulted in a 1.4-1.7 fold increase of excited-state lifetime. The results support a reaction model in which deactivation of the BV chromophore proceeds via excited-state proton transfer from the BV pyrrole nitrogens to the backbone of the conserved Asp or to a bound water. This work may aid in rational structure-and mechanism-based conversion of constructs based on P3 and other BPhs into efficient near-IR, deep tissue, fluorescent markers.}}, address = {{THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND}}, affiliation = {{Kennis, JTM (Reprint Author), Vrije Univ Amsterdam, Dept Phys \& Astron, Biophys Sect, De Boelelaan 1081, NL-1081 HV Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Thephytochromelight activation mechanism involves isomerization around the C15=C16 double bond of an open-chain tetrapyrrole chromophore, resulting in a flip of its D-ring. In an important new development, bacteriophytochrome (Bph) has been engineered for use as a fluorescent marker in mammalian tissues. Here we report that an unusual Bph, RpBphP3 from Rhodopseudomonas palustris, denoted P3, is fluorescent. This Bph modulates synthesis of light-harvesting complex in combination with a second Bph exhibiting classical photochemistry, RpBphP2, denoted P2. We identify the factors that determine the fluorescence and isomerization quantum yields through the application of ultrafast spectroscopy to wild-type and mutants of P2 and P3. The excited-state lifetime of the biliverdin chromophore in P3 was significantly longer at 330-500 ps than in P2 and other classical phytochromes and accompanied by a significantly reduced isomerization quantum yield. H/D exchange reduces the rate of decay from the excited state of biliverdin by a factor of 1.4 and increases the isomerization quantum yield. Comparison of the properties of the P2 and P3 variants shows that the quantum yields of fluorescence and isomerization are determined by excited-state deprotonation of biliverdin at the pyrrole rings, in competition with hydrogen-bond rupture between the D-ring and the apoprotein. This work provides a basis for structure-based conversion of Bph into an efficient near-IR fluorescent marker.} } @ARTICLE{K.C.Toh07012008, author = {Toh, K. C. and van Stokkum, Ivo H.

Upon illumination, the AppA BLUF domain forms a signaling state that is characterized by red-shifted absorbance by 10 nm, a state known as AppARED. We have applied ultrafast spectroscopy on the photoaccumulated AppARED state to investigate the photoreversible properties of the AppA BLUF domain. On light absorption by AppARED, the FAD singlet excited state FADRED* decays monoexponentially in 7 ps to form the neutral semiquinone radical FADH*, which subsequently decays to the original AppARED molecular ground state in 60 ps. Thus, FADRED* is deactivated rapidly via electron and proton transfer, probably from the conserved tyrosine Tyr-21 to FAD, followed by radical-pair recombination. We conclude that, in contrast to many other photoreceptors, the AppA BLUF domain is not photoreversible and does not enter alternative reaction pathways upon absorption of a second photon. To explain these properties, we propose that a molecular configuration is formed upon excitation of AppARED that corresponds to a forward reaction intermediate previously identified for the dark-state BLUF photoreaction. Upon excitation of AppARED, the BLUF domain therefore enters its forward reaction coordinate, readily re-forming the AppARED ground state and suppressing reverse or side reactions. The monoexponential decay of FAD* indicates that the FAD-binding pocket in AppARED is significantly more rigid than in dark-state AppA. Steady-state fluorescence experiments on wild-type, W104F, and W64F mutant BLUF domains show tryptophan fluorescence maxima that correspond with a buried conformation of Trp-104 in dark and light states. We conclude that Trp-104 does not become exposed to solvent during the BLUF photocycle. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.107.117788}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/95/1/312.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/95/1/312} } @ARTICLE{Valkunas200917, author = {Leonas Valkunas and Ivo H.

By kinetic modeling of the fluorescence data on chlorophyll and phycocyanin 645 excitation (at 400 and 582 nm respectively), it has been possible to show the excited state energy distribution in the photosynthetic antenna of this alga. Excitation energy from phycocyanin 645 is distributed nearly equally between photosystem I and photosystem {II} with very high efficiency on a 100-ps timescale. The excitation energy trapping times for both photosystem I ([~]30 ps) and photosystem I (200 and [~]540 ps) correspond well to those obtained from experiments on isolated photosystems. The results are compared with previous results for another cryptophyte species, Rhodomonas CS24, and suggest a similar membrane organization for the cryptophytes with the phycobiliproteins tightly packed in the thylakoid lumen around the periphery of the photosystems. }, doi = {10.1529/biophysj.107.113993}, eprint = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/reprint/94/6/2423.pdf}, url = {http://www.biophysj.org/cgi/content/abstract/94/6/2423} } @ARTICLE{vanderWeij-DeWitC.D._jp061546w, author = {van der Weij{-}DeWit, C.D. and Doust, A.B. and van Stokkum, I.

This finding questions the possibility of fast energy equilibration among the antenna and the RC, which has been the basic explanation for the measured PSII fluorescence kinetics for more than two decades. In this study, we present time-resolved fluorescence measurements obtained with a streak-camera setup on PSH core complexes from Thermosynechococcus elongatus at room temperature (RT) and at 77 K. Kinetic modeling of the RT data obtained with oxidized quinone acceptor Q(A) reveals that the kinetics are best described by fast primary charge separation at a time scale of 1.5 ps and slow energy transfer from the antenna into the RC, which results in an energy equilibration time between the antenna and the RC of about 44 ps. This model is consistent with structure-based computations. Primary radical pair formation was found to be a virtually irreversible process. Energy equilibration within the CP43 and CP47 complexes is shown to occur at a time scale of 8 ps. Kinetic modeling of the 77K data reveals similar energy transfer time scales in the antenna units and among the antenna and the RC as at RT, respectively, 7 and 37 ps. We conclude that the energy transfer from the CP43/CP47 antenna to; the RC is the dominant factor in the total charge separation kinetics in intact PSII cores.}}, Publisher = {{AMER CHEMICAL SOC}}, Address = {{1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA}}, Type = {{Article}}, Language = {{English}}, Affiliation = {{van Grondelle, R (Reprint Author), Vrije Univ Amsterdam, Fac Sci, Dept Phys \& Astron, De Boelelaan 1081, NL-1081 HV Amsterdam, Netherlands. van der Weij-de Wit, CD; Dekker, JP; van Grondelle, R; van Stokkum, IHM, Vrije Univ Amsterdam, Fac Sci, Dept Phys \& Astron, NL-1081 HV Amsterdam, Netherlands.}}, DOI = {{10.1021/jp1083746}}, ISSN = {{1089-5639}}, Keywords-Plus = {{EXCITATION-ENERGY TRANSFER; REACTION CENTERS; ELECTRON-TRANSFER; CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE; FLUORESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY; PICOSECOND FLUORESCENCE; LOW-TEMPERATURE; TARGET ANALYSIS; KINETICS; CP47}}, Funding-Acknowledgement = {{Netherlands Organization of Scientific Research (NWO) via the foundation of Earth and Life Sciences (ALW); Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM)}}, Funding-Text = {{We thank Eberhard Schlodder (Technische Universitat Berlin) for kindly providing the samples and for useful discussions.
