"The construction costs for a PSU in AAP bacteria is
much higher (Table 5), about 10-fold higher than for PRP [proteorhodopsin (PR)-based phototrophic]
bacteria. The most expensive step in PSU construction is
synthesis of the amino acids needed for the 31 peptides in
a typical AAP bacterial PSU (Table 5). Amino acid polymerization
for each peptide is the next most expensive step.
Pigment synthesis is the least expensive component of
PSU construction in AAP bacteria and would not increase
much even if [researchers] assume that oceanic AAP bacteria have
two light harvesting antenna complexes rather than the
one (LH1) commonly observed in marine AAP isolates
(Koblížek et al., 2003). In total, a typical PSU in AAP
bacteria costs about 8.29×10^-18 kJ to construct." See notes beneath table |
