Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
FADH2 computational calculations demonstrate that the localization of the FADH-donor state on the flavin ring enhances the electronic coupling between the flavin and the dimer by permitting shorter electron-transfer pathways to the dimer that have single through-space jumps. Therefore, in photolyase, the photo-excitation itself enhances the electron transfer rate by moving the electron towards the dimer Escherichia coli
