RESUMO

The current manuscript summarizes the information concerning the unique prokaryotic alga Acaryochloris marina Miyashita et Chihara, which synthesizes chlorophyll d as the main photosynthetic pigment (more than 95% of the total chlorophyll) involved in oxygenic photosynthesis. Spectral properties of chlorophyll d allow A. marina to use the near-infrared light efficiently for photosynthesis. We present the information about the photosynthetic apparatus, structure, and organization of the photosystems and light-harvesting complex of A. marina, the occurrence of this alga in nature, and its forms of existence in vivo.
