The three-dimensional structure of CsmA: A small antenna protein from the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium tepidum. Febs Lett., 582:2869-2874, 2008 Cited by PubMed Abstract: The structure of the chlorosome baseplate protein CsmA from Chlorobium tepidum in a 1:1 chloroform:methanol solution was determined using liquid-state NMR spectroscopy. The data reveal that the 59-residue protein is predominantly alpha-helical with a long helical domain extending from residues V6 to L36, containing a putative bacteriochlorophyll a binding domain, and a short helix in the C-terminal part extending from residues M41 to G49. These elements are compatible with a model of CsmA having the long N-terminal alpha-helical stretch immersed into the lipid monolayer confining the chlorosome and the short C-terminal helix protruding outwards, thus available for interaction with the Fenna-Matthews-Olson antenna protein.
