Targeted deletion mutagenesis of the beta subunit of cytochrome b559 protein destabilizes the reaction center of photosystem II.

Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. C, Journal of biosciences - 1 May 1990

Abstract excerpt

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis techniques were used to delete the psbF gene, encoding the beta subunit of the cytochrome b559 protein of the photosystem II complex in the cyanobacterium, Synechocystis 6803. Cyt b559 is an integral component of PS II complex. However, its precise functional...
