The ability to tune the light-absorption properties of chlorophylls by their protein environment is the key to the robustness and high efficiency of photosynthetic light-harvesting proteins. Unfortunately, the intricacy of the natural complexes makes it very difficult to identify and isolate specific protein-pigment interactions that underlie the spectral-tuning mechanisms. Herein we identify and demonstrate the tuning mechanism of chlorophyll spectra in type II water-soluble chlorophyll binding ...[more]
