The ex-perimental results indicated that the energy transfer from PBS to two reaction centers of PS Ⅰand PS Ⅱ were parallel, and confirmed the model which was suggested by Mullineaxu.展开更多
The conjugate of R-phycoerythrin (R-PE) and C-phycocyanin (C-PC) was synthesized through a heterobifunctional coupling reagent, N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionate.

The molar ratio of R-PE to C-PC was determined by absorption spectra, and the result was 2:1. The energy transfer phenomena were observed from steady-state fluorescence spectra. The calculated result showed that the energy transfer efficiency from R-PE to C-PC was 88%. The energy transfer kinetics was determined by picosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectra. The time constant of energy transfer from R-PE to C-PC was 80 ps, which was much longer than that in the rood of native phycobilisomes.展开更多

The energy transfer relationships between different chromophores especially between rod and core were also discussed based on fluorescence decay kinetic under different detected wavelengths. As a result, we got the possible energy transfer pathways and transfer time constants to be 29 ps between two PEC trimers, 12 ps between PEC and C-PC, 51 ps between rod and core.展开更多

The results indicate that the energy transfer processes should take place between α 84 PVB and β 84 or β 155 PCB chromophores with the time constants 34.7 ps and 175-200 ps individually; in contrast with monomeric PEC, from time resolved fluorescence anisotropic spectrum technique, the decay constant of 45 ps which was assigned to the energy transfer time among three β 84 PCB chromophores was observed and the energy levels of β 84 and/or β 155 PCB chromophores were confirmed to turn over in trimeric PEC.展开更多

The experimental results show that there are two types of principal channels, with large probability or amplitude, for linking two trimers viam?m and s?s energy transfer pathways, the energy-transfer time constants of them are about 20 and 10 ps, respectively. Indeed, there exists the evidence for energy-transfer channels of s?f steps in the same monomer and threef?f steps in the same trimer of the C-PC hexamer unit, with small probability or amplitude, and the time constants of them might be ca. 50 and 45 ps separately. Also, the present results show that the hexamer possesses an optimal structure for energy-transfer and for the first time confirm that the dominant energy-transfer processes except those between 1 m?2f, 2m?3f and 3m?1f and so on, in isolated C-PC hexamer, could be described by F?rster dipole-dipole resonance mechanism.展开更多
