Stacking of Bacteriochlorophyll c Macrocycles in Chlorosome from Chlorobium limicola As Revealed by Intermolecular 13C Magnetic-Dipole Correlation, X-Ray Diffraction, and Quadrupole Coupling in 25Mg NMR

The stacking of the bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) c macrocycles and the role of water in forming an aggregate sheet, in chlorosome, were examined by means of 13C NMR spectroscopy, the measurement of the X-ray diffraction pattern, and 25Mg NMR spectroscopy. (1) The stacking of the macrocycles, i.e., wea...
