Scaffolding proteins guide the evolution of algal light harvesting antennas

Cryptophytes acquired plastids from red algae but replaced the light-harvesting phycobilisome with a unique cryptophyte antenna. Here via analysis of phycobilisome cryo-EM structures, Rathbone et al. propose that the α subunit of the cryptophyte antenna originated from phycobilisome linker proteins
