Function[PSBL_CYACA] One of the components of the core complex of photosystem II (PSII). PSII is a light-driven water:plastoquinone oxidoreductase that uses light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating O(2) and a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation. It consists of a core antenna complex that captures photons, and an electron transfer chain that converts photonic excitation into a charge separation. This subunit is found at the monomer-monomer interface and is required for correct PSII assembly and/or dimerization. [PSBH_CYACA] One of the components of the core complex of photosystem II (PSII), required for its stability and/or assembly. PSII is a light-driven water:plastoquinone oxidoreductase that uses light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating O(2) and a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation. It consists of a core antenna complex that captures photons, and an electron transfer chain that converts photonic excitation into a charge separation. [PSBB_CYACA] One of the components of the core complex of photosystem II (PSII). It binds chlorophyll and helps catalyze the primary light-induced photochemical processes of PSII.

[YCF12_CYACA] A core subunit of photosystem II (PSII). [PSBA_CYACA] Photosystem II (PSII) is a light-driven water: plastoquinone oxidoreductase that uses light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating O(2) and a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation. It consists of a core antenna complex that captures photons, and an electron transfer chain that converts photonic excitation into a charge separation. The D1/D2 (PsbA/PsbA) reaction center heterodimer binds P680, the primary electron donor of PSII as well as several subsequent electron acceptors.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01379] [C550B_CYACA] Low-potential cytochrome c that plays a role in the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II (PSII). Unlike Synechococcus vulcanus it does not bind by itself to PSII, but requires all extrinsic members of the OEC. [PSBF_CYACA] This b-type cytochrome is tightly associated with the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII).

[PSBT_CYACA] Seems to play a role in the dimerization of PSII. [PSBU_CYACA] Stabilizes the structure of photosystem II oxygen-evolving complex (OEC), the ion environment of oxygen evolution and protects the OEC against heat-induced inactivation (By similarity). Does not bind by itself to PSII; it requires all other members of the OEC. [PSBI_CYACA] One of the components of the core complex of photosystem II (PSII), required for its stability and/or assembly.

Publication Abstract from PubMedCrystal structure of photosystem II (PSII) has been reported from prokaryotic cyanobacteria but not from any eukaryotes. In the present study, we improved the purification procedure of PSII dimers from an acidophilic, thermophilic red alga Cyanidium caldarium, and crystallized them in two forms under different crystallization conditions. One had a space group of P222(1) with unit cell constants of a=146.8 A, b=176.9 A, and c=353.7 A, and the other one had a space group of P2(1)2(1)2(1) with unit cell constants of a=209.2 A, b=237.5 A, and c=299.8 A. The unit cell constants of both crystals and the space group of the first-type crystals are different from those of cyanobacterial crystals, which may reflect the structural differences between the red algal and cyanobacterial PSII, as the former contains a fourth extrinsic protein of 20 kDa. X-ray diffraction data were collected and processed to a 3.8 A resolution with the first type crystal. For the second type crystal, a post-crystallization treatment of dehydration was employed to improve the resolution, resulting in a diffraction data of 3.5 A resolution. Analysis of this type of crystal revealed that there are 2 PSII dimers in each asymmetric unit, giving rise to 16 PSII monomers in each unit cell, which contrasts to 4 dimers per unit cell in cyanobacterial crystals. The molecular packing of PSII within the unit cell was constructed with the molecular replacement method and compared with that of the cyanobacterial crystals.
