Analyses of absorption and fluorescence spectra of water-soluble chlorophyll proteins, pigment System II particles and chlorophyll a in diethylether solution by the curve-fitting method (original) (raw)

Absorption and fluorescence spectra in the red region of water-soluble chlorophyll proteins, Lepidium CP661, CP663 and Brassica CP673, pigment System II particles of spinach': chloroplasts and chlorophyll a in diethylether solution at 25°C were analyzed by the curve-fitting method (French, C.S., Brown, J.S. and Lawrence, M.C, (1972) Plant Physiol. 49, 421--429). It was found that each of the chlorophyll forms of the chlorophyll proteins and the pigment System II particles had a corresponding fluorescence band with the Stokes shift ranging from 0.6 to 4.0 nm.
