Abstract
The photosystem of filamentous anoxygenic phototroph Roseiflexus (Rfl.) castenholzii comprises a light-harvesting (LH) complex encircling a reaction center (RC), which intensely absorbs blue-green light by carotenoid (Car) and near-infrared light by bacteriochlorophyll (BChl). To explore the influence of light quality (color) on the photosynthetic activity, we compared the pigment compositions and triplet excitation dynamics of the LH-RCs from Rfl. castenholzii was adapted to blue-green light (bg-LH-RC) and to near-infrared light (nir-LH-RC). Both LH-RCs bind γ-carotene derivatives; however, compared to that of nir-LH-RC (12%), bg-LH-RC contains substantially higher keto-γ-carotene content (43%) and shows considerably faster BChl-to-Car triplet excitation transfer (10.9 ns vs 15.0 ns). For bg-LH-RC, but not nir-LH-RC, selective photoexcitation of Car and the 800 nm-absorbing BChl led to Car-to-Car triplet transfer and BChl-Car singlet fission reactions, respectively. The unique excitation dynamics of bg-LH-RC enhances its photoprotection, which is crucial for the survival of aquatic anoxygenic phototrophs from photooxidative stress.

Abstract
The results of assembling the light-harvesting complexes in the cells of the purple sulfur bacterium Thiorhodospira (T.) sibirica strain Kir-3 while suppressing the biosynthesis of carotenoids with diphenylamine (DPA) were studied. LH2 complexes (B800-850 and B800-830) with different carotenoid composition were isolated from the cells obtained. Maximum inhibition of carotenoid biosynthesis (~90% of the control) was reached at an inhibitor concentration of 53.25 μM (9 mg/L). It was established that changes in the qualitative and quantitative composition of carotenoids do not affect the assembly of B800-830 and B800-850 complexes. It is assumed that, in the population of DPA-LH2 complexes from T. sibirica strain Kir-3, both the carotenoidless complexes and the complexes containing one or two carotenoid molecules can be assembled. These results support the hypothesis that carotenoids are not required for assembling B800-850 and B800-830 complexes.
