1O2 was shown to be affected by the RC dynamics and to originate from the reaction of molecular oxygen with two sources of triplets: photoactive dimer formed by singlet-triplet mixing and bacteriopheophytin formed by direct photoexcitation and intersystem crossing.

The intramolecular electron transfer between two high-potential hemes of cytochrome c in samples with 2H2O is inhibited within this range of P/P0, whereas in RC samples with H2O there is a trend toward gradual inhibition of the interheme electron transfer with dehydration.

It was found that dry films containing RCs and QDs and maintained at atmospheric humidity are capable to keep their functional activity for at least some months as judging by results of measurement of their spectral characteristics, efficiency of energy transfer from QDs to RCs, and RC electron-transport activity.

The phenomenon of light-induced structural transformations in the reaction centers of photosynthetic bacteria which makes self-regulation of the RC charge separation efficiency possible is described and a theory of structure-function reorganization in the RC is constructed using the adiabatic approach.
