PEA LIGHT-HARVESTING COMPLEX II AT 2.5 ANGSTROM RESOLUTION
Overview
The plant light-harvesting complex of photosystem II (LHC-II) collects and, transmits solar energy for photosynthesis in chloroplast membranes and has, essential roles in regulation of photosynthesis and in photoprotection., The 2.5 A structure of pea LHC-II determined by X-ray crystallography of, stacked two-dimensional crystals shows how membranes interact to form, chloroplast grana, and reveals the mutual arrangement of 42 chlorophylls a, and b, 12 carotenoids and six lipids in the LHC-II trimer. Spectral, assignment of individual chlorophylls indicates the flow of energy in the, complex and the mechanism of photoprotection in two close chlorophyll, a-lutein pairs. We propose a simple mechanism for the xanthophyll-related, slow component of nonphotochemical quenching in LHC-II, by which excess, energy is transferred to a zeaxanthin replacing violaxanthin in its, binding site, and dissipated as heat. Our structure shows the complex in a, quenched state, which may be relevant for the rapid, pH-induced component, of nonphotochemical quenching.
