Abstract
The electron-transfer reactions of the photosynthetic reaction center are mystifying, as there are two possible transfer paths and no obviou s reason for the electron to choose one over the other, Recent computa tional studies, although they use diverse assumptions, agree that the electrostatic field of the protein provides the determining factor.
