I've recently started this article alongside reaction centre. These are closely related subject; They are both proteins involved in the process of photosynthesis. I will be expanding this stub into a thorough article over the coming weeks.

Why not check out reaction centre in the meantime?

Proposed move of LHC dab page

I've proposed moving LHC to LHC (disambiguation) to allow LHC to redirect to Large Hadron Collider with an appropriate {{this}} transclusion. I'm notifying editors of each of the pages linked from the current dab page to help generate discussion from interested parties. The discussion can be found at Talk:LHC#Requested move. -- Mark Chovain 01:11, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Phycobilisome

The layout of protein subunits in a phycobilisome.

This image looks very strange for a protein: it seems extremely simplistic and drawn in a unusual way for a protein structure. Question: what is the source for this image? A reference would be welcome. Shinkolobwe (talk) 23:46, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

The image depicts the whole assembly of a lot of proteins, not a single protein structure. Each of those red or blue cylinders is a separate protein unit. This is really trivial stuff, any photosynthesis/algae textbook will probably contain similar illustration.158.75.4.216 (talk) 13:06, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

This section seems to contradict itself when it says that little red light makes it down to 1 meter, and yet the pigments possessed by algae at this depth are targeted to green and red light. I thought red light could make it down this far. Cypher3c (talk) 00:25, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

I dont know who is writing this page, but you make many mistakes. Please be careful with assigning the LHC's to plants and bacteria. LH-I, LH-II, (better LH1 and LH2) are from purple bacteria. The picture under question here is a phycobilisome that consists of many proteins. The picture is actually a real physical model and not a X-ray structure. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.37.31.85 (talk) 15:10, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

What is the first reference in External links? Doesn't seem to work. Superfamily 1 seems to include many unrelated proteins. Cool site though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.230.160.240 (talk) 00:50, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Including reaction centres functioning.

When we say that the antenna complex is transferring energy through forster resonance, I'd like to add too: "as opposed to/until it reaches the reaction centre, which, when it recieves the energy, shoots an electron to the fotosynthetic chain". --186.136.240.135 (talk) 20:40, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
