Structure elucidation of the novel carotenoid gemmatoxanthin from the photosynthetic complex of Gemmatimonas phototrophica AP64

Abstract Gemmatimonas phototrophica AP64 is the first phototrophic representative of the bacterial phylum Gemmatimonadetes. The cells contain photosynthetic complexes with bacteriochlorophyll a as the main light-harvesting pigment and an unknown carotenoid with a single broad absorption band at 490 ...
