▪ Abstract The chlorophyll-carotenoid binding proteins responsible for absorption and
conversion of light energy in oxygen-evolving photosynthetic organisms belong to two …

The light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHC) proteins function in both Photosystem
(PS) I and II as coordinators of antenna pigments. They constitute a family of abundant and …

The biggest unsolved problems in chloroplast evolution are the origins of dinoflagellate and
euglenoid chloroplasts, which have envelopes of three membranes not two like plants and …

The light-harvesting complexes form the photosynthetic apparatus found in most
photosynthetic organisms including cyanobacteria, red algae, diatoms and dinoflagellates …

Abstract Genes encoding ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco)
were cloned from dinoflagellate symbionts (Symbiodinium spp) of the giant clam Tridacna …

The light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) of land plants and green algae have essential roles
in light capture and photoprotection. Though the functional diversity of the individual LHC …

The nuclear-encoded Chl a/b and Chl a/c antenna proteins of photosynthetic eukaryotes are
part of an extended family of proteins that also includes the early light-induced proteins …

Genes for glycolytic and Calvin-cycle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
(GAPDH) of higher eukaryotes derive from ancient gene duplications which occurred in …

Euglenozoa is a major phylum of excavate protozoa (comprising euglenoids, kinetoplastids,
and diplonemids) with highly unusual nuclear, mitochondrial, and chloroplast genomes. To …
