Title: Far-red chlorophyll d clusters extend photosystem I absorption toward the red limit.

Abstract: Oxygenic photosynthesis is usually limited to visible light, but the marine cyanobacterium pushes this boundary by harvesting far-red photons with chlorophyll d. The best-studied strain, MBIC11017, ...Oxygenic photosynthesis is usually limited to visible light, but the marine cyanobacterium pushes this boundary by harvesting far-red photons with chlorophyll d. The best-studied strain, MBIC11017, unexpectedly lacks low-energy chlorophylls ("red forms") in photosystem I, limiting absorption beyond 740 nanometers. Here, we show that another strain, NIES-2412, has evolved a strategy to absorb far-red photons up to 760 nanometers. Combining time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy with cryo-electron microscopy at 2.64-angstrom resolution, we identify two distinct classes of chlorophyll d red forms in its photosystem I. One class originates from classical charge-transfer-exciton mixing, while the other arises purely from excitonic interactions. Mapping all 96 chlorophylls d reveals the precise pigments responsible for these far-red states. We also uncover a previously unreported subunit, PsaX2, which stabilizes the photosystem I complex and shapes pigment geometry and energetics to enable the formation of red forms. Last, we show that the protein modifications responsible for binding and tuning these red forms are widespread across the genus but not within the model MBIC11017 strain. Far-red photons lie close to the energetic limit of oxygenic photosynthesis; their efficient use therefore requires fine-tuning of the photosynthetic machinery. To our knowledge, our findings provide the structural and mechanistic basis of one of the most red-shifted photosystem I complexes identified to date, highlighting a distinct adaptive strategy in far-red light environments and offering design principles for extending photosynthesis in crops into the infrared.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
