摘要: This concise review describes the current status of research into how carotenoids function in bacterial photosynthesis. is illustrated by reference to very recent studies on both photoprotective and antenna functions carotenoids. The major remaining open questions detailed molecular mechanisms involved these reactions are highlighted.
