Including the membrane of the surrounding vesicle, how many phospholipid ( not lipopolysaccharide) bilayers should be found around each P. chromatophora's chromatophore, and which one of these bilayers should have photosystems embedded in it?
Phospholipid bilayers found around each P. chromatophora's chromatophore are two and innermost layer has photosystems embedded in it
Paulinella chromatophora is one of the few cercozoans that is autotrophic, carrying out aerobic photosynthesis with its two elongated chromatophores
The chromatophores are contained within vesicles of the host cell, and each is derived from a cyanobacterium, though not the same type of cyanobacterium that gave rise to the chloroplasts of algae and plants
