Type: | Domain | Name: | Photosynthesis system II assembly factor Ycf48/Hcf136-like domain |
Description: | This entry represents a domain found in the photosynthesis system II assembly factor YCF48/HCF136 and associated proteins.The photosynthesis system II (PSII) is a multi-subunit pigment-protein complex responsible for water oxidation during oxygenic photosynthesis []. PSII can be found in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. Its assembly is regulated by PSII assembly factors including Ycf48/Hcf136, Psb27 and Psb28. Ycf48/Hcf136 contains the BNR repeats and can be found predominantly in the thykaloid membrane. Ycf48/Hcf136 is required for assembly and repair of an early intermediate in PSII assembly that includes D2 (psbD) and cytochrome b559 [, ]. This domain can also be found in some YCF48-like proteins that may not affect PSII activity. | Short Name: | PSII_CF48-like_dom |
