Abstract excerpt
The extrinsic PsbO subunit of the water-oxidizing photosystem II (PSII) complex is represented by two isoforms in Arabidopsis thaliana, namely PsbO1 and PsbO2. Recent analyses of psbo1 and psbo2 knockout mutants have brought insights into their roles in photosynthesis and light stress. Here we analyzed the two psbo mutants in terms of PsbOs expression pattern, organization of PSII complexes and GTPase activity....
