Assertion
The 2.5 Å crystal structure of photosystem I from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus showed 12 protein subunits and 127 cofactors, including 96 chlorophylls, 2 phylloquinones, 3 Fe4S4 clusters and 22 carotenoids.
Quote
The crystal structure of photosystem I from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus described here provides a picture at atomic detail of 12 protein subunits and 127 cofactors comprising 96 chlorophylls, 2 phylloquinones, 3 Fe4S4 clusters, 22 carotenoids, 4 lipids, a putative Ca2+ ion and 201 water molecules.
