Tracing of backward energy transfer from LH1 to LH2 in photosynthetic membranes grown under high and low irradiation.

By introducing derivative transient absorption spectroscopy, we obtain rate constants for backward and forward energy transfer between LH1 and LH2 complexes in purple bacterial membranes. We find that backward energy transfer is strongly reduced in membranes grown under low irradiation conditions, c...
