Energy transfer pathways in reconstituted peridinin chlorophyll complexes

The main objective of this thesis is to study energy transfer pathways between carotenoids and chlorophylls in the reconstituted light harvesting protein, peridinin chlorophyll protein (PCP), of the marine dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae. The reconstituted PCP complex contains either bacteriochl...

The main results, dependence of the peridinin to bacteriochlorophyll-a energy transfer pathways on excitation wavelength and energy transfer between chlorophylls, are described and discussed in the results of the thesis.
