摘要: The functions of carotenoids in photosynthesis, particularly fucoxanthin and peridin, are considered on the basis energy diagrams carotenoid molecules, observed kinetic spectral properties. transfer pathways mechanisms from to (B)Chl a theoretical experimental points view, it is concluded that mechanism via Coulomb interaction. This contradicts previous assumptions based only point view; however, complete description phenomenon pigment-protein complexes beyond our expectations at present should drive future studies explore these phenomena more detail.
