Tani K, Kanno R, Kikuchi R, Kawamura S, Nagashima K, Hall M, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Apr; 13(1):1904. PMID: 35393413
Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a model organism in bacterial photosynthesis, and its light-harvesting-reaction center (LH1-RC) complex contains both dimeric and monomeric forms. Here we present cryo-EM structures of the native LH1-RC...
