Protein
Photosystem II lipoprotein Psb27
Organism
Thermosynechococcus elongatus (strain BP-1)
Function
Plays a role in the repair and/or biogenesis of the calcium-manganese-oxide cluster on the lumenal face of the thylakoid membrane. Its presence in a photosystem II (PSII) preparation prevents binding of other extrinsic subunits PsbO, PsbU and PsbV, and thus assembly of calcium-manganese-oxide cluster. Psb27-containing complexes lack oxygen evolving activity and an oxidizable calcium-manganese-oxide cluster, but have a normal reaction center.
Similarity
Belongs to the Psb27 family.
