Electron transfer between redox centers in proteins is controlled by quantum tunneling. We can model the region between two redox centers as an energy barrier which the electron must cross. If the distance between the redox centers is 0.752 nm and the energy of the electron is 0.976 eV lower than the height of the barrier, what is the probability that the electron will successfully cross to the next redox center?
