Abstract
ABSTRACTPhotosynthetic membrane proteins convert solar light into chemical energy in a significantly high efficiency. Up-to-date reports of the photosynthetic bacterium suggest that such effective light conversion is due to the energy transfer between two light-harvesting (LH) protein complexes that are patterned in two dimensions. In this report, LH complex isolated fromRb. sphaeroideswas immobilized onto a patterned gold surface with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and lipid bilayers at two main objectives: (1) micron-scale patterning of LH complex, and (2) prevention of quenching for pattern observation.
