Monoclonal antibodies to the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein complex of photosystem II
A collection of 17 monoclonal antibodies elicited against the light- harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein complex which serves photosystem II (LHC-II) of Pisum sativum shows six classes of binding specificity.

Structural basis of light‐harvesting in the photosystem II core complex
Photosystem II (PSII) is a membrane‐spanning, multi‐subunit pigment–protein complex responsible for the oxidation of water and the reduction of plastoquinone in oxygenic photosynthesis.

The Ability of Cyanobacterial Cells to Restore UV-B Radiation Induced Damage to Photosystem II is Influenced by Photolyase Dependent DNA Repair [PDF]
Damage of DNA and Photosystem-II are among the most significant effects of UV-B irradiation in photosynthetic organisms. Both damaged DNA and Photosystem-II can be repaired, which represent important defense mechanisms against detrimental UV-B effects ...

We have investigated the structure of the photosynthetic membrane in a mutant of barley known to lack a chlorophyll-binding protein. This protein is thought to channel excitation energy to photosystem II, and is known as the "light-harvesting chlorophyll-

Synthesis and assembly of thylakoid protein complexes: multiple assembly steps of photosystem II [PDF]
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 ...

Role of Novel Dimeric Photosystem II (PSII)-Psb27 Protein Complex in PSII Repair [PDF]
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.

Purification and spectroscopic characterization of photosystem II reaction center complexes isolated with or without Triton X-100. [PDF]
The pigment composition of the isolated photosystem II reaction center complex in its most stable and pure form currently is a matter of considerable debate.

Evidence for a chlorophylla/b—protein complex associated with Photosystem II [PDF]
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.
