✦ Synopsis

The cover picture shows a model of the complex between the herbicide acifluorfen (yellow) and the bacterial reaction center of Rhodobacter sphaeroides as derived from paramagnetic NMR constraints. The paramagnetic iron is shown in silver surrounded by the histidine ligands (magenta). For more details on the conclusions that can be drawn from this model, see the article by G. Valensin et al. on p. 1237 ff. The picture was created by using WLViewerLite 4.0.
