PCP of Amphidinium carterae & bacteriochlorophyll protein of Prosthecochloris aestuarii.

NotIncludedFigureC-alfa_only initial structure.
This image didn't quite make it in the thesis. It shows the initial structure I received and had to work on. The initial information was just the coordinates of the C-alfa atoms, represented by the spheres in the image, and of the chlorophyll rings.

Structure of LHC II inserted in the membrane (position of the phospholipidic bilayer indicated by the grey discs).

Graphic representation of the simulation results. Residue His212 after a normal minimization or normal simulated annealing (above). The same residue after application of the protocol of simulated annealing using relaxed force constants (below).
