Function
B8BUU4_THAPS The light-harvesting complex (LHC) functions as a light receptor, it captures and delivers excitation energy to photosystems with which it is closely associated. Energy is transferred from the carotenoid and chlorophyll C (or B) to chlorophyll A and the photosynthetic reaction centers where it is used to synthesize ATP and reducing power.[ARBA:ARBA00004022]
