Reconstitution of chlorophyll a/b light-harvesting complexes: Xanthophyll-dependent assembly and energy transfer
AUTOR(ES)
Plumley, F. Gerald
RESUMO
A method for in vitro reconstitution of the chlorophyll a/b light-harvesting complex from LiDodSO4/heat-denatured or acetone-extracted photosynthetic membranes has been developed. Characterization of the minimum components necessary for the functional organization of pigments in these membrane complexes reveals that xanthophylls are essential structural components.
