Abstract

Electron-transfer (ET) reactions in metalloproteins play an important role in both photosynthesis and respiratory oxidative phosphorylation. In spite of this importance, the exact nature of specific partner-to-partner in ET processes is still poorly understood. In terms of specifics, a lot of chemists have tested the importance of three different kinds of non-covalent pathway interactions that are proposed to play a critical role in mediating biological ET events, namely : (1) van der Waals associations, (2) Electrostatic contacts, (3) Hydrogen bonds. This review summarizes the recent development of new, non-covalently approaches to ET modeling.
