Structural insight into the mechanism of energy transfer in cyanobacterial phycobilisomes
The major light-harvesting systems for photosynthesis in cyanobacteria and red algae are phycobilisomes (PBS). Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of two cyanobacterial PBS from Anabaena 7120 and Synechococcus 7002 and discuss their energy transfer pathways.
