主 题：energy transfer LHC Ⅱ transient spectrum fluorescence kinetics
摘 要：A study on energy transfer among chlorophylls（Chls）in the trimeric unit of the major light-harvesting complex Ⅱ（LHC Ⅱ）from Bryopsis corriculan,was carried out using time-correlated singlephoton *** the chlorophyll Q region of LHC Ⅱ,six molecules characterized as Chlb628,Chlb646,Chlb652654,657,Chla664666,Chla674677.680and Chla682683were discriminated according to their absorption spectrumand fluorescence emission ***,excited by pulsed light of 628 nm,fluorescence kinetics spectrain the chlorophyll Q region were *** accordance with the principles of fluorescence kinetics,thesekinetics data were analyzed with a multi-exponential *** constants on energy transfer were *** overwhelming percentage of energy transfer among chlorophylls undergoes a process longer than 97picoseconds（ps）,which shows that,before transferring energy to another Chl,the excited Chl might convertenergy to vibrations of a lower state with different multiplicity（intersystem crossing）.Energy transfer at thelevel of approximately 10 ps was also obtained,which was interpreted as the excited Chls may go throughinternal conversion before transferring energy to another *** with a higher standard deviation,timeconstants at the femtosecond level can not be entirely excluded,which can be attributed to the ultrafastprocess of direct energy *** to the arrangement and direction of the dipole moment of Chls inLHC Ⅱ,the probability of these processes is *** fluorescence lifetimes of Chlb652654,657,Chla664666,Chla674677.680and Chla682683were determined to be 1.44ns,1.43 ns,636 ps and 713 ps,*** of energy dissipation in the pathway of fluorescence emission were no more than 40% in thetrimeric unit of LHC Ⅱ.These results are important for a better understanding of the relationship between thestructure and function of LHC Ⅱ.
