Despite extensive studies, many questions remain about what structural and energetic factors give rise to the remarkable energy transport efficiency of photosynthetic light-harvesting protein complexes, owing largely to the inability to synthetically control such factors in these natural systems. Herein, we demonstrate energy transfer within a biomimetic light-harvesting complex consisting of identical chromophores attached in a circular array to a protein scaffold derived from the tobacco mosaic virus coat protein. We confirm the capability of energy transport by observing ultrafast depolarization in transient absorption anisotropy measurements and a redshift in time-resolved emission spectra in these complexes. Modeling the system with kinetic Monte Carlo simulations recapitulates the observed anisotropy decays, suggesting an inter-site hopping rate as high as 1.6 ps-1. With these simulations, we identify static disorder in orientation, site energy, and degree of coupling as key remaining factors to control to achieve long-range energy transfer in these systems. We thereby establish this system as a highly promising, bottom-up model for studying long-range energy transfer in light-harvesting protein complexes.
