Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, artificial light harvesting systems have been constructed toward efficient artificial photosynthesis systems. As scaffolds, a series of hemoprotein assemblies have been prepared and characterized. One of the assemblies shows the micelle-like sphere structure and is inverted to artificial light harvesting system by substitution of heme chromophores with photosensitizers. This system demonstrates efficient light harvesting function. The results will contribute to development of protein-based systems for artificial photosynthesis.
