3D reconstruction of a green algal LHCI-PSI supercomplex

Figure 7

FIG. 7. Modeling study using the top view difference projection map of the LHCI-PSI supercomplex (see Fig. 4b) viewed from the stromal side. Overlaid onto this projection are: (i) in red, coordinates containing the carbon atom positions for LHCII at a resolution of 3.4 Å, a kind gift from Prof. W. Ku¨ hlbrandt, Max Planck Institute for Structural Biology, Frankfurt, Germany, and (ii) the 2.5 Å resolved structure for the PSI monomer (2), Protein Data Bank accession number 1JB0. Carbon atoms and amino acid side chains are in green spacefill representation, except for subunits PsaJ (yellow), PsaK (pink), PsaL (cyan), and PsaX (purple). Heteroatoms are not shown. Bar represents 5 nm.
