- Аннотация: In the present work, we studied hyperchromism/hypochromism in the chlorosomal BChl c Q/B absorption bands of the green photosynthetic bacterium Chloroflexus (Cfx.) aurantiacus. The chlorosomes were isolated from cells grown under different light intensities and therefore, as we discovered earlier, they had different sizes of both BChl c antennae and their unit building blocks. We have shown experimentally that the Q-/B-band hyperchromism/hypochromism is proportional to the size of the chlorosomal antenna. We explained theoretically these findings in terms of excitonic intensity borrowing between the Q and B bands for the J-/H-aggregates of the BChls. The theory developed by Gülen (Photosynth Res 87:205-214, 2006) showed the dependence of the Q-/B-band hyperchromism/hypochromism on the structure of the aggregates. For the model of exciton-coupled BChl c linear chains within a unit building block, the theory predicted an increase in the hyperchromism/hypochromism with the increase in the number of molecules per chain and a decrease in it with the increase in the number of chains. It was previously shown that this model ensured a good fit with spectroscopy experiments and approximated the BChl c low packing density in vivo. The presented experimental and theoretical studies of the Q-/B-band hyperchromism/hypochromism permitted us to conclude that the unit building block of Cfx. aurantiacus chlorosomes comprises of several short BChl c chains.This conclusion is in accordance with previous linear and nonlinear spectroscopy studies on Cfx. aurantiacus chlorosomes.
