Abstract excerpt
The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 contains four members of the FtsH protease family. One of these, FtsH (slr0228), has been implicated recently in the repair of photodamaged photosystem II (PSII) complexes. We have demonstrated here, using a combination of blue native PAGE, radiolabeling, and immunoblotting, that FtsH (slr0228) is required for selective replacement of the D1 reaction center subunit in...
