Role of hydrogen bond alternation and charge transfer states in photoactivation of the Orange Carotenoid Protein

Role of hydrogen bond alternation and charge transfer states in photoactivation of the Orange Carotenoid Protein

Yaroshevich et al. present a chemical reaction mechanism of a 35-kDa blue light-triggered photoreceptor, the Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP). They find that photoactivation critically involves the transient formation of a protonated ketocarotenoid (oxocarbenium cation) state. This study suggests the...
