| UniProt functional annotation for Q8DKM3 | |||
| UniProt code: Q8DKM3. |
| Organism: | Thermosynechococcus elongatus (strain BP-1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Synechococcales; Synechococcaceae; Thermosynechococcus. | |
| Function: | Loosely associated component of the core of photosystem II, it is not always seen in crystals. 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. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00717, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739, ECO:0000303|PubMed:19219048}. | |
| Cofactor: | Note=PSII binds multiple chlorophylls, carotenoids and specific lipids. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17935689, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739}; | |
| Subunit: | Cyanobacterial PSII is composed of 1 copy each of membrane proteins PsbA, PsbB, PsbC, PsbD, PsbE, PsbF, PsbH, PsbI, PsbJ, PsbK, PsbL, PsbM, PsbT, PsbX, PsbY, PsbZ, Ycf12, 3 peripheral proteins PsbO, PsbU, PsbV and a large number of cofactors. It forms dimeric complexes. This protein is only loosely associated with PSII, and is not often found in crystals. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17935689, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cellular thylakoid membrane {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00717, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17935689, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00717, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17935689, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739}. | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=4617; Mass_error=4; Method=MALDI; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219048}; | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=4614; Method=MALDI; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:20558739}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the PsbY family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00717}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=BAC08388.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Extended N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
