a Pigment arrangement of the C2S2M2-type PSII-SC adapted from the structure reported by Su et al. (PDB: 5XNL)4. b Labelling of the protein subunits. The colours of the subunits match those in (a), where the D1 subunits (CP43, CP26, and S-LHCII) are shown in green, the D2 subunits (CP47, CP29, CP24, and M-LHCII) are shown in blue and purple, and the RCs are shown in red. The black dashed line indicates the separation between the two PSII monomers, with the upper and lower monomers labelled as Monomer 1 and 2, respectively. The yellow stars represent the locations of the initial excitations discussed in the main text. RC: reaction centre. S-A: S-LHCII (A). S-B: S-LHCII (B). S-C: S-LHCII (C). M-A: M-LHCII (A). M-B: M-LHCII (B). M-C: M-LHCII (C).
