| UniProt functional annotation for Q8DIF8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q8DIF8. |
| Organism: | Thermosynechococcus elongatus (strain BP-1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Synechococcales; Synechococcaceae; Thermosynechococcus. | |
| Function: | 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. PSII is a light-driven water:plastoquinone oxidoreductase, using light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating O(2) and a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21367867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25006873}. | |
| Cofactor: | Note=Binds multiple chlorophylls and provides some of the ligands for the Ca-4Mn-5O cluster of the oxygen-evolving complex. It may also provide a ligand for a Cl- that is required for oxygen evolution. PSII binds additional chlorophylls, carotenoids and specific lipids. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14764885, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16355230, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21367867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22665786, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23413188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25006873, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25043005, ECO:0000269|Ref.2}; | |
