Function
PSBA_THEVL D1 (PsbA) and D2 (PsbD) bind P680, the primary electron donor of photosystem II (PSII) as well as electron acceptors. PSII is a light-driven water plastoquinone oxidoreductase, using light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01379]
