Photosynthesis

Biological Materials Growth Facility

This project maintains a facility for the production of
photosynthetic microorganisms, photosynthetic proteins, and
pigments 99% enriched in 2H and other stable isotopes that are
uniquely useful for analysis of electron transfer and hierarchical
structures in photosynthesis by magnetic resonance spectroscopies
and neutron scattering. The goal of this project is to produce
molecular assemblies that enable experimental resolution of
fundamental mechanisms for solar energy conversion in
photosynthesis, and in synthetic photochemical systems.
