Photosynthetic system of purple bacteria
Peripheral light-harvesting antenna (LH2 complex) from Rh. Acidophila, McDermott et al. (1995) Nature 374, 517.
Shown above is the structure of RC from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, Allen, et al. (1987) PNAS, 84, 5730; McAuley, et al. (1999) PNAS, 96, 14706.
First structure of reaction centre, from Rhodopseudomonas viridis, was determined by Deisenhofer, et al. (1985) Nature 318, 618.
