Synthesis and assembly of thylakoid protein complexes: multiple assembly steps of photosystem II [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2005 To study the synthesis and assembly of multisubunit thylakoid protein complexes, we performed [35S]Met pulse and chase experiments with isolated chloroplasts and intact leaves of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), followed by Blue Native gel separation of the (sub)complexes and subsequent identification of the newly synthesized and assembled protein ...

Evidence for a chlorophylla/b—protein complex associated with Photosystem II [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1984 A new chlorophylla/b—protein complex designated as LHCPx was separated by SDS—PAGE. This complex differs from the light‐harvesting chla/b—protein of PS II, by its chla/bratio, its fluorescence properties and its apoprotein composition. Evidence is provided that this complex corresponds to a part of PS I antenna.

The PsbQ protein defines cyanobacterial Photosystem II complexes with highest activity and stability [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007 Light-induced conversion of water to molecular oxygen by Photosystem II (PSII) is one of the most important enzymatic reactions in the biosphere. PSII is a multisubunit membrane protein complex with numerous associated cofactors, but it continually undergoes assembly and disassembly due to frequent light-mediated damage as a result of its ...

Role of Novel Dimeric Photosystem II (PSII)-Psb27 Protein Complex in PSII Repair [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2011 The multisubunit membrane protein complex Photosystem II (PSII) catalyzes one of the key reactions in photosynthesis: the light-driven oxidation of water. Here, we focus on the role of the Psb27 assembly factor, which is involved in biogenesis and repair after light-induced damage of the complex.

The Photosystem II Oxygen-Evolving Complex Protein PsbP Interacts With the Coat Protein of Alfalfa mosaic virus and Inhibits Virus Replication [PDF]
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2014 Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) coat protein (CP) is essential for many steps in virus replication from early infection to encapsidation. However, the identity and functional relevance of cellular factors that interact with CP remain unknown.

A Novel Antenna Protein Complex in the Life Cycle of Cyanobacterial Photosystem II [PDF]
, 2019 ABSTRACTIn oxygenic photosynthetic organisms, photosystem II (PSII) is a unique membrane protein complex that catalyzes light-driven oxidation of water. PSII undergoes frequent damage due to its demanding photochemistry. However, many facets of its repair and reassembly following photodamage remain unknown.

Advances in the Understanding of the Lifecycle of Photosystem II
Microorganisms, 2022 Photosystem II is a light-driven water-plastoquinone oxidoreductase present in cyanobacteria, algae and plants. It produces molecular oxygen and protons to drive ATP synthesis, fueling life on Earth.
