Evaluation of the relationship between color-tuning of photosynthetic excitons and thermodynamic stability of light-harvesting chromoproteins

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2023
Color-tuning is a critical survival mechanism for photosynthetic organisms. Calcium ions are believed to enhance both spectral tuning and thermostability in obligatory calcium-containing sulfur purple bacteria.

The effect of some antiseptic drugs on the energy transfer in chromatophore photosynthetic membranes of purple non-sulfur bacteria Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]

open access: yesPhotosynthesis Research, 2021
Chromatophores of purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) are invaginations of the cytoplasmic membrane that contain a relatively simple system of light-harvesting protein-pigment complexes, a photosynthetic reaction center (RC), a cytochrome complex, and ATP synthase, which transform light energy into the energy of synthesized ATP.

Thermostable nature of hydrogen production by non-sulfur purple photosynthetic bacteria isolated in Thailand. [PDF]

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1981
Ten strains of non-sulfur purple photosynthetic bacteria were isolated from soil and water samples gathered in Bangkok and its surrounding area. The isolated strains from Thailand were divided into two groups, Al to A4 and BI to B6. They were identified as Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa and Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides, respectively. All strains grew well
