Photosynthesis allows plants to convert light into chemical energy. Utilizing this process to produce electrical energy is a research goal worldwide. Scientists have now demonstrated that a photosynthetic protein system can be integrated into artificial photovoltaic device architectures while retaining biomolecular functional properties. The proteins represent light-driven, highly efficient single-molecule electron pumps that can act as current generators in nanoscale electric circuits.![E-aMbUvEZnw](http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sciencedaily/matter_energy/solar_energy/~4/E-aMbUvEZnw)
