Mimicking a Light‐Harvesting Complex to Accelerate Photooxidation in Asymmetric Lipid Membrane Nanoreactors

within the compartmentalizing liposome nanoreactors. It was observed that our metal-free LHC system has only a minor effect on the photooxidation rate of NADH when the nanoreactor membrane is functionalized symmetrically. By contrast, asymmetric membrane functionalization of the liposome nanoreactor membranes leads to acceleration by 16% to 27% when using multi-colored light emitting diodes (LED) or simulated solar light, respectively.

Abstract

within the compartmentalizing liposome nanoreactors. It was observed that our metal-free LHC system has only a minor effect on the photooxidation rate of NADH when the nanoreactor membrane is functionalized symmetrically. By contrast, asymmetric membrane functionalization of the liposome nanoreactor membranes leads to acceleration by 16% to 27% when using multi-colored light emitting diodes (LED) or simulated solar light, respectively.
