P.3788 left column top paragraph: "An integrative model was employed in ref 14 to describe photosynthetic energy conversion in the chromatophore, the primary photosynthetic unit in the purple bacterium Rhodobacter (Rba.) sphaeroides. The chromatophore is an intracytoplasmic membrane vesicle of approximately 60 nm diameter (primary source) comprising over a hundred cooperating proteins (refs 21-25) for performing ATP synthesis (Figure 1)." |
