Abstract

The function of photosynthetic light harvesting complexes (LHCs) comprises absorption and regulated excitation energy transfer (EET) to the photochemical reaction centers (RCs). Photosynthesizing organisms have developed a variety of LHCs but, apart from phycobilins in cyanobacteria and certain algae, use only two types of pigments, (bacterio)chlorophylls ((B)Chl) and carotenoids.
