Abstract

Chromophore-containing complexes and proteins in nature are widespread use in the area of photochemistry and as models for photosynthesis. However, when they are removed from their biological environment, the proteins undergo denaturation and are unstable. In addition, cofactors such as NADH need to be released for continuous use in the system. In order to make PSII composed of protein mixtures, chromoforms and different cofactors stable and sustainable, the use of the ANADOLUCA (Amino Acid monomer Decorated and Light Underpinning Conjugation Approach) method to combine multicomponent photo-active bio-complexes has been used for energy and bio-inspired devices.
