Structure of the Core Light-Harvesting Reaction Center Complex (LH1-RC) and the Light-Harvesting Supercomplex (LH1-LH2) of Hlr. halophila Visualized by Cryo-Electron Microscopy.

Caption

This illustration shows how two isoforms of the α and β chains in the LH1 subunit pair together to form a ring. The LH1 ring is structured to surround both the reaction center and the LH2 complex, which are depicted in semi-transparent colors on the left and right, respectively.
