Deskripsi
Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a model organism for studying bacterial photosynthesis. Here, the authors present structures of its native dimeric and a protein-U-lacking monomeric light-harvesting-reaction center complexes, which reveal asymmetric features for the dimer and an altered shape for the monomer.
