a The concentration of bvRh was 2 nm. In other experiments, the concentrations of pigments were 20 nm. Lipid composition of nanodiscs was a mixture of POPC/POPG at a ratio of 3:2 (POPC/POPG).

b Significantly different from Vmax/R* of bvRh and mRh at the same temperature (p < 0.05).

c Significantly different from Vmax/Meta-II of bvRh at the same temperature (p < 0.05).

d Significantly different from Vmax/R* of cG at the same temperature (p < 0.05).
