We first describe the history and methods of membrane protein crystallization, and show how the structure of the photosynthetic reaction centre from the purple bacterium Rhodopseudomonas viridis was solved. The structure of this membrane protein complex is correlated with its function as a light-driven electron pump across the photosynthetic membrane. Finally we draw conclusions on the structure of the photosystem II reaction centre from plants and discuss the aspects of membrane protein structure.

Several mutants resistant to terbutryn (2-thiom ethyl-4-ethylamino-6-t-butylamino-s-triazine) from the purple bacterium Rhodopseudom onas viridis have been isolated. The sequence analysis of that part of the DNA coding for the herbicide binding site in the photosynthetic reaction centre showed that only two genetically different mutant strains were obtained. The sequence data are discussed with respect to recent crystallographic results.
