Monomeric and trimeric subcomplexes of LHC Ⅱ were obtained by using sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation.

The properties of electronictransition of monomeric LHC Ⅱ showed similarities to those of trimeric LHC Ⅱ. Circular dichroism spectroscopy showed that strong intramolecular interaction of excitonic dipoles between Chl a and between Chl b exist in one LHC Ⅱ apoprotein, while the intermolecular interaction of these dipoles can be intensified in the trimeric structure. The monomer has high efficient energy transfer from Chl b and siphonaxanthin to Chl a similarly to that of the trimer. Our results suggest that in B. corticulans, LHC Ⅱ monomer has high ordered pigment organization that play effective physiological function as the trimer, and thus it might be also a functional organization existing in thylakoid membrane of B.corticulans.展开更多
