Abstract: | The electronic singlet vertical excited states of photosynthetic reaction center (PSRC) in Rhodopseudomonas (Rps.) viridis were investigated by ZINDO and INDO/S methods. The effects of the interactions of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein on
the electronic excitations were examined. The calculation results showed that the interactions of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein
play an important role in reasonably assigning the experimental absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectra of PSRC in
Rps. virids. By comparing the theoretically computed excited states with the experimental absorption and CD spectra, satisfactory assignments
of the experimental spectroscopic peaks were achieved. |
