The photocycle of orange carotenoid protein conceals distinct intermediates and asynchronous changes in the carotenoid and protein components

The 35-kDa Orange Carotenoid Protein (OCP) is responsible for photoprotection in cyanobacteria. It acts as a light intensity sensor and efficient quencher of phycobilisome excitation. Photoactivation triggers large-scale conformational rearrangements to convert OCP from the orange OCP(O) state to th...
