  • PubMed Abstract: 

    The reaction center (RC)-light-harvesting complex 1 (LH1) supercomplex plays a pivotal role in bacterial photosynthesis. Many RC-LH1 complexes integrate an additional protein PufX that is key for bacterial growth and photosynthetic competence. Here, we present a cryo-electron microscopy structure of the RC-LH1-PufX supercomplex from Rhodobacter veldkampii at 2.8-Å resolution. The RC-LH1-PufX monomer contains an LH ring of 15 αβ-polypeptides with a 30-Å gap formed by PufX. PufX acts as a molecular "cross brace" to reinforce the RC-LH1 structure. The unusual PufX-mediated large opening in the LH1 ring and defined arrangement of proteins and cofactors provide the molecular basis for the assembly of a robust RC-LH1-PufX supercomplex and efficient quinone transport and electron transfer. These architectural features represent the natural strategies for anoxygenic photosynthesis and environmental adaptation.
