Differential Roles of Carotenes and Xanthophylls in Photosystem I Photoprotection.

Biochemistry - 5 Jul 2016

Cazzaniga Stefano, Bressan Mauro, Carbonera Donatella, Agostini Alessandro, Dall'Osto Luca

Abstract excerpt

Carotenes and their oxygenated derivatives, xanthophylls, are structural elements of the photosynthetic apparatus and contribute to increasing both the light-harvesting and photoprotective capacity of the photosystems. β-Carotene is present in both the core complexes and light-harvesting system (LHCI) of Photosystem (PS) I, while xanthophylls lutein and violaxanthin bind exclusively to its antenna moiety; another...
