| UniProt functional annotation for P10898 | |||
| UniProt code: P10898. |
| Organism: | Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Chlamydomonas smithii). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Chlorophyta; core chlorophytes; Chlorophyceae; CS clade; Chlamydomonadales; Chlamydomonadaceae; Chlamydomonas. | |
| 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}. | |
| 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}; | |
| Subunit: | 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, at least 3 peripheral proteins of the oxygen- evolving complex and a large number of cofactors. It forms dimeric complexes. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1885590}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Plastid, chloroplast thylakoid membrane {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1885590}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496}. | |
| Ptm: | Phosphorylated in vitro (PubMed:1885590). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1885590}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the PsbB/PsbC family. PsbC subfamily. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01496}. | |
