Post-Experimental Analysis of the Light-Harvesting Protein–Pigment Complex Present in Green Sulfur Bacteria: An Approach in Quantum Biology
Journal: Symmetry
Year: 2026

Quantum biology is a multidiscipline which analyses possible critical aspects of life that could be based on the macroscopic expression of quantum phenomena. The high efficiency of light energy harvesting in green sulfur bacteria during photosynthesis is associated with entanglement and tunneling effects in the Fenna–Mathew–Olson complex. This has been studied to assess itscontribution, when conducting the light energy captured by the chlorosome, to the reaction center, where it is transformed i
