Cryo-EM structure of a functional monomeric Photosystem I from Thermosynechococcus elongatus reveals red chlorophyll cluster

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Çoruh, Frank et al. report the structure of monomeric Photosystem I from cyanobacteria Thermosynechoccocus elongatus BP-1. They assign monomerization-induced loss of red chlorophylls to a cluster of chlorophylls adjacent to PsaX.
