Different carotenoid conformations have distinct functions in light-harvesting regulation in plants

Carotenoids can dissipate excess energy captured by photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes to prevent photodamage. Here, via spectroscopic and in silico approaches, Liguori et al. resolve different carotenoid dark states and propose conformational changes that permit them to act as either energy...
