Abstract excerpt
Plastocyanin functions as an electron carrier between the cytochrome b6f complex and photosystem I. The crystal structures of the wild-type and E43K/D44K double mutant from the higher plant, Silene, have been determined at 2.0 and 1.75 A resolution, respectively. The wild-type plastocyanin comprises two monomers per asymmetric unit, one of which shows the unusually great distance between the copper ion and the...
