Function

[PSBF_THEVL] This b-type cytochrome is tightly associated with the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII). 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_00643] [PSBL_THEVL] This protein is a component of the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII). 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_01317] [PSBJ_THEVL] This protein is a component of the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII). 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_01305] [PSBB_THEVL] This protein binds multiple antenna chlorophylls and is part of the core of photosystem II (PSII). 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. [YCF12_THEVL] A core subunit of photosystem II (PSII). 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. [PSBT_THEVL] Seems to play a role in the dimerization of photosystem II (PSII). 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_00808] [PSBI_THEVL] A component of the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII). 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_01316] [PSBD_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. D2 is needed for assembly of a stable PSII complex.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01383] [PSBX_THEVL] Involved in the binding and/or turnover of quinones at the Q(B) site of photosystem II (PSII). 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_01386] [PSBZ_THEVL] Controls the interaction of photosystem II (PSII) cores with the light-harvesting antenna. 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_00644] [PSBO_THEVL] Part of the oxygen-evolving complex associated with photosystem II (PSII). 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. [CY550_THEVL] Low-potential cytochrome c that plays a role in the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II (PSII). Binds to PSII in the absence of other extrinsic proteins; required for binding of the PsbU protein to photosystem II. In PSII particles without oxygen-evolving activity, maximal activity is restored only by binding of cytochrome c550, PsbU and the 33 kDa PsbO protein. 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.^{[1] [2]} [PSBE_THEVL] This b-type cytochrome is tightly associated with the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII). 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_00642]
