PCP of Amphidinium carterae & bacteriochlorophyll protein of Prosthecochloris aestuarii

NotIncludedFigure C-alfa_only initial structure.
This image didn't quite make it in the thesis. It shows the initial structure I received and had to work on. The initial information was just the coordinates of the C-alfa atoms, represented by the spheres in the image, and of the chlorophyll rings
