Abstract: The light-harvesting-reaction center complex (LH1-RC) from the purple phototrophic bacterium Thiorhodovibrio strain 970 exhibits an LH1 absorption maximum at 960 nm, the most red-shifted absorption for any bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) a-containing species. Here we present a cryo-EM… read more here.

Abstract: The reaction centre (RC) in purple phototrophic bacteria is encircled by the primary light-harvesting complex 1 (LH1) antenna, forming the RC–LH1 ‘core’ complex. The Qy absorption maximum of LH1 complexes ranges from ∼875–960 nm in bacteriochlorophyll… read more here.
