Primary Identifier | IPR017486 | Type | Family |
Short Name | PSII_PsbB |
description | This entry contains the photosystem II P680 chlorophyll A apoprotein, PsbB.Photosystem II light-harvesting proteins are the intrinsic transmembrane antenna proteins CP43 (PsbC) and CP47 (PsbB) found in the reaction centre of PSII. These polypeptides bind to chlorophyll a and beta-carotene and pass the excitation energy on to the reaction centre []. This family also includes the iron-stress induced chlorophyll-binding protein CP43 (IsiA), which evolved in cyanobacteria from a PSII protein to cope with light limitations and stress conditions []. |
