The present review aims at surveying recent theoretical development and applications of electronic energy transport between chromophoric molecules (i.e. donors and acceptors) in various protein and lipid systems. Reversible, partly reversible, as well as irreversible energy transport within pairs of interacting chromophoric molecules are considered. Also energy migration/transfer within ensembles of many donor and acceptor molecules is discussed. An extended Förster theory of interacting pairs is summarised, which brings the analyses of data to the same level of molecular description as in ESR and NMR spectroscopy. Recent applications of energy transfer/migration on protein systems concern their structure, folding, as well as their formation of non-covalent protein polymers. The latter systems are of particular interest in e.g. the study of amyloid formation and the molecular functioning of muscles.

Prezentované review si klade za cíl podat přehled teoretického vývoje a aplikací elektronického transportu energie mezi chromofory v rozličných proteinových a lipidových systémech. Uvažovány jsou reverzibilní, částečně reverzibilní a nereverzibilní transport energie mezi páry molekul tak jako mezi skupinou interagujících molekul. Rozšířená Fösterova teorie umožňující analýzu dat jako na úrovni NMR nebo ESR je shrnuta.
