摘要:
This paper gives a historical and personal account of the author's work in Rod Clayton's laboratory, when he observed the first evidence of the two-electron gate in bacterial reaction center. Colin Wraight had independently discovered this phenomenon at the same time. The high similarity between the acceptor side of Photosystem II (PS II) and of bacterial reaction centers was one of the first proofs for a profound homology between these two photosystems.
