Abstract
A comparison of hyperfine coupling constants obtained by electron-nuclear double resonance spectroscopy of in vitro monomer chlorophyll and bacteriochlorophyll free radicals with those of the photoesr (electron spin resonance) signal associated with light conversion in photosynthesis provides convincing support for the special pair model for the in vivo photo-reaction center.Keywords
