Deskripsi
The high potential iron-sulfur (HiPIP) proteins are direct electron donors to the light-harvesting-reaction center complexes (LH1-RC) in photosynthetic β- and γ-Proteobacteria. Here, the authors present the 2.9 Å crystal structure of the HiPIP-bound LH1-RC complex from the thermophilic purple sulfur bacterium Thermochromatium tepidum and discuss mechanistic implications for the electron transfer pathway.
