Mixing of exciton and charge-transfer states in light-harvesting complex Lhca4
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Lhca4 is one of the peripheral antennae of higher plant photosystem I and it is characterized by the presence of chlorophyll a with absorption and emission bands around 30 nm red-shifted compared to those of the other chlorophylls associated with plant complexes. In this work we have investigated the origin of this red shift by using the recent structure of Lhca4 (Qin et al., Science, 2015, 348, 989) to build an exciton model that includes a charge-transfer (CT) state mixed with the excited-state manifold. A simultaneous quantitative fit of absorption, linear dichroism, fluorescence, and Stark absorption spectra of the wild-type Lhca4 and NH mutant (where the sites involved in CT are affected) enables us to determine the origin of the CT state and explore its spectral signatures. A huge borrowing of dipole strength by the CT, accompanied by anomalous broadening and red-shifting of the fluorescence as well as dramatic changes in the Stark spectrum, can be accounted for by a model implying an exciton-type mixing between excited states and CT states.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
