Abstract excerpt
Some terrestrial cyanobacteria acclimate to and utilize far-red light (FRL; λ = 700-800 nm) for oxygenic photosynthesis, a process known as far-red light photoacclimation (FaRLiP). A conserved, 20-gene FaRLiP cluster encodes core subunits of Photosystem I (PSI) and Photosystem II (PSII), five phycobiliprotein subunits of FRL-bicylindrical cores, and enzymes for synthesis of chlorophyll (Chl) f and possibly Chl d....
