Abstract

A photosynthetically impaired strain of Rhodobacter sphaeroides containing reaction centres with an alanine to tryptophan mutation at residue 260 of the M-polypeptide (AM260W) was incubated under photosynthetic growth conditions. This incubation produced photosynthetically competent strains containing suppressor mutations that changed residue M260 to glycine or cysteine. Spectroscopic analysis demonstrated that the loss of the Q
