General annotation (Comments)

Function

This is one of the two reaction center proteins of photosystem II. HAMAP-Rule MF_01379

Catalytic activity

2 H2O + 2 plastoquinone + 4 light = O2 + 2 plastoquinol. HAMAP-Rule MF_01379

Cofactor

The psbA/B heterodimer binds P680, the primary electron donor of PSII. It shares a non-heme iron and each subunit binds additional chlorophylls and pheophytin. PsbA provides most of the ligands for the Mn-cluster of the oxygen-evolving complex By similarity.

Subunit structure

The psbA/B heterodimer binds the P680 chlorophylls and subsequent electron acceptors. PSII consists of a core antenna complex that captures photons, and an electron transfer chain that converts photonic excitation into a charge separation. PSII forms dimeric complexes By similarity. Interacts with PAM68. The nascent chain still attached to the ribosome interacts with FFC/ cpSRP54, but not with CAO/cpSRP43 or SecA. Ref.4 Ref.5

Subcellular location

Plastidchloroplast thylakoid membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein HAMAP-Rule MF_01379.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylation occurs in normal plant growth light conditions. Rapid dephosphorylation occurs during heat shock. HAMAP-Rule MF_01379

Miscellaneous

Herbicides such as atrazine, BNT, diuron or ioxynil bind to Q(B) and block electron transport By similarity. HAMAP-Rule MF_01379

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the reaction center PufL/M/PsbA/D family.

Mass spectrometry

Molecular mass is 823.4 Da from positions 2 - 7. Determined by ESI. Ref.3
