PubMed Abstract: Photosynthetic reaction centres (RCs) catalyze light-driven electron, transport across photosynthetic membranes. The photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter, sphaeroides is often used for studies of RCs, and three groups have determined the structure of its reaction centre. There are discrepancies between these structures, however, and to resolve these we have determined the structure to higher resolution than before, using a new crystal form.
