LHCB3

Gene
LHCB3
Protein
Chlorophyll a-b binding protein 3, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
265 amino acids
Function
The light-harvesting complex (LHC) functions as a light receptor, it captures and delivers excitation energy to photosystems with which it is closely associated (PubMed:26562806). Modulates the rate of photosystem II (PSII) state transitions and influences PSII macrostructure (PubMed:19880802). Involved in PSII excitation energy transfer and charge separation during photosynthesis in thylakoids (PubMed:26562806).
Similarity
Belongs to the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding (LHC) protein family.
Mass
