Abstract excerpt
Peroxiredoxin Q (Prx Q) is one out of 10 peroxiredoxins encoded in the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana, and one out of four that are targeted to plastids. Peroxiredoxin Q functions as a monomeric protein and represents about 0.3% of chloroplast proteins. It attaches to the thylakoid membrane and is detected in preparations enriched in photosystem II complexes. Peroxiredoxin Q decomposes peroxides using thioredoxin...
