Abstract: The Porphyridium cruentum light harvesting complex (LHC) binds Chl a, zeaxanthin and beta-carotene and comprises at least 6 polypeptides of a multigene family. We describe the first in vitro reconstitution of a red algal light-harvesting protein (LHCaR1) with Chl a/carotenoid extracts from P. cruentum. The reconstituted pigment complex (rLHCaR1) is spectrally similar to the native LHC I, with an absorption maximum at 670 nm, a 77 K fluorescence emission peak at 677 nm (ex. 440 nm), and similar circular dichroi… Show more

“…Diatom and dinophyte pigments yielded a brownish-green band, and spinach pigments yielded a green band. Superimposition of pigment bands with Coomassie blue-stained bands, and absence of free pigments on nondenaturing PAGE gels (22) demonstrated adherence of pigments to proteins.…”
