Fig. 1: In situ single-particle cryo-EM analysis of photosynthetic supercomplexes in thylakoid membranes from O. sativa chloroplasts.

a,b, Cryo-EM grid preparation of chloroplasts isolated from O. sativa (a) and directly frozen onto cryo-EM grids (b). c, Representative cryo-EM micrograph of chloroplasts for single-particle analysis. Similar micrograph quality was observed across the entire dataset (n = 22,785 micrographs). Scale bar, 50 nm. d, Representative 2D class averages showing different types of photosynthetic supercomplex. e,f, Side (e) and lumenal (f) views of a representative high-resolution map of the C2S2M2L4-type PSII–LHCII supercomplex (Electron Microscopy Data Bank (EMDB) EMD-68060). g, Surface representation of the C2S2M2L4 complex (Protein Data Bank (PDB) 21WV), comprising the core (outlined by the red dashed box) and peripheral antenna proteins: CP29, CP24, CP26, S-LHCII, M-LHCII and L-LHCII. The L-LHCII regions were fitted with the LHCII models from the PSI–LHCI–LHCII complex according to their distinct triangular densities. h, High-resolution features of the C2S2M2L4 complex shown by representative density of amino acid residues and endogenous ligands. CLA, chlorophyll a; PHO, pheophytin a; CHL, chlorophyll b; BCR, β-carotene; NEX, neoxanthin; XAT, violaxanthin; HEM, heme; PL9, plastoquinone-9; LHG, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidyl-glycerole; DGD, digalactosyl diacylglycerol. i,j, Side (i) and stromal (j) views of a representative high-resolution map of the PSI–LHCI–LHCII supercomplex (EMDB EMD-66932) in the native thylakoid membrane. k, Atomic model of PSI–LHCI–LHCII (PDB 9XJ9). l, High-resolution features of PSI–LHCI–LHCII shown by representative density of amino acid residues and endogenous ligands. PL0, chlorophyll a isomer; PQN, phylloquinone; SF4, iron/sulfur cluster.
