Abstract: Photoheterotrophic bacteria harvest light energy using either proton-pumping rhodopsins or bacteriochlorophyll (BChl)-based photosystems. The bacterium Sphingomonas glacialis AAP5 isolated from the alpine lake Gossenköllesee contains genes for both systems. Here, we show that BChl is… read more here.
