Oxygenic photosynthesis is indispensable both for the development and maintenance of life
on earth by converting light energy into chemical energy and by producing molecular …

This review focuses on the light-harvesting properties of photosystem I (PSI) and its LHCI
outer antenna. LHCI consists of different chlorophyll a/b binding proteins called Lhca's …

In photosynthetic organisms, feedback dissipation of excess absorbed light energy balances
harvesting of light with metabolic energy consumption. This mechanism prevents …

The antenna complexes of Photosystem I present low-lying states visible as red-shifted and
broadened absorption and fluorescence bands. Among these, Lhca4 has the most evident …

Time-resolved fluorescence on oligomers of the main light-harvesting complex from higher
plants indicate that in vitro oligomerization leads to the formation of a weakly coupled inter …

Cell membranes are comprised of multicomponent lipid and protein mixtures that exhibit a
complex partitioning behavior. Regions of structural and compositional heterogeneity play a …

The energy dissipation mechanism in oligomers of the major light‐harvesting complex II
(LHC II) from Arabidopsis thaliana mutants npq1 and npq2, zeaxanthin‐deficient and …

Photosynthesis has been using energy from sunlight to assimilate atmospheric CO2 for at
least 3.5 billion years. Through evolution and natural selection, photosynthetic organisms …

Single-molecule spectroscopy was employed to elucidate the fluorescence spectral
heterogeneity and dynamics of individual, immobilized trimeric complexes of the main light …

In photosynthesis, light is harvested and its energy is used to produce the various biological
components that support nearly all life on earth. It is oxygenic photosynthesis that led to the …
