Light energy absorbed by the 576 bilin chromophores in the six rods of the phycobilisome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis 6701 is funneled into a 1.5 x 10(6) dalton core. The 72 bilins of the core function as a single unit with respect to the rate-limiting processes for energy flow within these particles.
藻蓝体中的 6 个藻胆体的 5760 亿个发色团吸收的光能被导入一个 1.5x10^6 道尔顿的核心中。核心中的 72 个藻胆素在这些颗粒内的能量流动的限速过程中作为一个单一的单元起作用。
