thylakoid light-harvesting complex

id: GO:0009503
name: thylakoid light-harvesting complex
namespace: cellular_component
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: A thylakoid membrane complex of chlorophylls a and b together with chlorophyll a-b binding proteins. In addition, LHCs contain a number of other proteins, the function of which is speculative, together with accessory pigments. The LHCs capture and transfer energy to photosystems I and II. An example of this is found in Arabidopsis thaliana.
