Protein
Photosystem II reaction center protein Ycf12
Organism
Thermosynechococcus elongatus (strain BP-1)
Function
A core subunit of photosystem II (PSII). 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.
Similarity
Belongs to the Ycf12 family.
