General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Apoprotein for the two 4Fe-4S centers FA and FB of photosystem I (PSI); essential for photochemical activity. FB is the terminal electron acceptor of PSI, donating electrons to ferredoxin. The C-terminus interacts with psaA/B/D and helps assemble the protein into the PSI complex. Required for binding of psaD and psaE to PSI. PSI is a plastocyanin/cytochrome c6-ferredoxin oxidoreductase, converting photonic excitation into a charge separation, which transfers an electron from the donor P700 chlorophyll pair to the spectroscopically characterized acceptors A0, A1, FX, FA and FB in turn. Ref.1 |
| Catalytic activity | Reduced plastocyanin + oxidized ferredoxin + light = oxidized plastocyanin + reduced ferredoxin. HAMAP MF_01303 |
| Cofactor | Binds 2 4Fe-4S clusters. Cluster 2 is most probably the spectroscopically characterized electron acceptor FA and cluster 1 is most probably FB. |
| Subunit structure | The eukaryotic PSI reaction center is composed of at least 11 subunits By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | Plastid › chloroplast thylakoid membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Stromal side By similarity HAMAP MF_01303. |
| Sequence similarities | Contains 2 4Fe-4S ferredoxin-type domains. |

| Mutagenesis | 9 | 1 | D → K or N: No effect. Ref.5 Ref.7 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 12 | 1 | I → V: 60-fold increase in affinity of PSI for ferredoxin; when associated with 15-KR-16. Unable to grow photoautotrophically. Ref.5 Ref.7 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 15 – 16 | 2 | TQ → KR: 60-fold increase in affinity of PSI for ferredoxin; when associated with V-12. Unable to grow photoautotrophically. Ref.5 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 35 | 1 | K → D or E: Drastically decreases affinity of PSI for ferredoxin, limits photoautotrophic growth at medium and greater light. Decreases cross-linking of ferredoxin to PSI-D and PSI-E. Ref.5 Ref.6 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 35 | 1 | K → T: Drastically decreases affinity of PSI for ferredoxin. Decreases cross-linking of ferredoxin to PSI-D and PSI-E. Ref.5 Ref.6 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 46 | 1 | E → K or Q: No effect. Ref.5 Ref.7 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 49 | 1 | V → I: Leads to partial destabilization of PSI; when associated with 52-TQ-53, alters the FA center. Unable to grow photoautotrophically. Ref.5 Ref.7 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 52 – 53 | 2 | KR → SA: Preferentially reduces FB, accumulates 20-30% PSI, 25% of which is damaged. Grows photoautotrophically under low light. Ref.5 | ||||||
| Mutagenesis | 52 – 53 | 2 | KR → TQ: Leads to partial destabilization of PSI; when associated with I-49. Alters the FA center. Unable to grow photoautotrophically. Ref.5 | ||||||
