Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex

The Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex is a water-soluble complex and was the first pigment-protein complex (PPC) to be structure analyzed by x-ray spectroscopy.〔 It appears in green sulfur bacteria and mediates the excitation energy transfer from light-harvesting chlorosomes to the membrane-embedded bacterial reaction center (bRC). Its structure is trimeric (C3-symmetry). Each of the three monomers contains seven bacteriochlorophyll ''a'' (BChl ''a'') molecules. They are bound to the protein scaffold via ligation of their central magnesium atom either to amino acids of the protein (mostly histidine) or water-bridged oxygen atoms (only one BChl ''a'' of each monomer).
Since the structure is available, calculating structure-based optical spectra is possible for comparison with experimental optical spectra.〔〔 In the simplest case only the excitonic coupling of the BChls is taken into account.〔 More realistic theories consider pigment-protein coupling.〔 An important property is the local transition energy (site energy) of the BChls, different for each, due to their individual local protein environment. The site energies of the BChls determine the direction of the energy flow.
Some structural information on the FMO-RC super complex is available, which was obtained by electron microscopy〔〔 and linear dichroism spectra measured on FMO trimers and FMO-RC complexes. From these measurements, two orientations of the FMO complex relative to the RC are possible. The orientation with BChl 3 and 4 close to the RC and BChl 1 and 6 (following Fenna and Matthews' original numbering) oriented towards the chlorosomes is useful for efficient energy transfer.〔
==Test object==
The complex is the simplest PPC appearing in nature and therefore a suitable test object for the development of methods that can be transferred to more complex systems like photosystem I. The FMO complex exhibits remarkably long quantum coherence, which plays an important part in energy transfer processes within the system.
