Carotenoids Do Not Protect Bacteriochlorophylls in Isolated Light-Harvesting LH2 Complexes of Photosynthetic Bacteria from Destructive Interactions with Singlet Oxygen

The effect of singlet oxygen on light-harvesting (LH) complexes has been studied for a number of sulfur (S<sup>+</sup>) and nonsulfur (S<sup>−</sup>) photosynthetic bacteria. The visible/near-IR absorption spectra of the standard LH2 complexes (B800-850) of <i>Allochrom...
