Fig. 2: Structure of the Hlr. halophila LH1–RC complex.
From: A Native LH1–RC–HiPIP Supercomplex from an Extremophilic Phototroph
a Tilted view of the LH1 complex looking from the periplasmic side. Multiple polypeptides are shown by cylindrical cartoons and pigments are shown by sticks; the arrow shows an extra BChl a. Color scheme: α1, green; β1, blue; α2, orange; β2, gray; BChl a, red; carotenoids, yellow. b Tilted view of the pigment arrangement in LH1 with representative distances (in Å) between the BChls a. For clarity, phytol chains were omitted. c Side view of the overall structure of the RC complex. The extended C-terminal domain of the Cyt subunit is shown by red color in the dotted ellipse. (d) Side view of the cofactors in the RC. Color schemes are the same as in Fig. 1.
