Table I. Global fit parameters describing the kinetics of A1− oxidation and P700+ reduction at room temperature in vivo.
Global fitting analysis is shown for the optical transient in whole cells of Fud7-P71 and the FN68 mutant. The data have been fitted by the linear sum of exponential functions: 
, where 
is a nondecaying component in the time range investigated. The fractional amplitude of the components in the nanosecond range [
] at three characteristic wavelengths is calculated as: 
.
