However, their architecture and structural adaptations of their photosynthetic systems to ensure adequate light harvesting, electron transport, and oxidative resilience in oxygen-rich environments remain poorly understood. In this study, we present a 2.4-Å cryo-EM structure of the reaction center-light-harvesting 1 (RC-LH1) supercomplex from Dinoroseobacter shibae DFL-12, a marine AAP bacterial symbiont of benthic dinoflagellates. This RC-LH1 supercomplex features a closed LH1 ring comprising 17 αβ-subunits, each containing two spheroidenones per αβ-heterodimer-a previously unreported configuration in phototrophic bacteria. The cytochrome subunit of the RC is truncated to three hemes, in contrast to the four-heme configuration found in anaerobic relatives. The structure also reveals elongated bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) spacing, which may account for its blue-shifted absorption maximum that is optimized for low-light benthic environments. Furthermore, we identify a previously unknown subunit, protein-LRC, which is hypothesized to functionally couple photochemical and respiratory electron transport. Collectively, these specific structural features allow AAP bacteria to balance anoxygenic photosynthesis and protection against oxidative damage, providing a mechanistic framework for them to thrive in oxygenated marine environments. Our study provides insights into the structural and functional variability of bacterial photosynthesis in response to oxygenated marine environments. | |||||||||
