Functional architecture of the major light-harvesting complex from higher plants.

Journal of molecular biology - 14 Dec 2001

Formaggio E, Cinque G, Bassi R

Abstract excerpt

Light-harvesting complexes (Lhc) catalyse sunlight harvesting for photosynthesis as well as other essential functions, including photoprotection by quenching of harmful chlorophyll triplet states and prevention of photoinhibition by dissipation of excitation energy in excess. In addition, folding of Lhc proteins depends on the availability of both xanthophylls and carotenoids, thus preventing the potential...
