Abstract excerpt
In Photosystem II (PSII) of the cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus, glutamate 130 in the high-light variant of the D1-subunit (PsbA3) was changed to glutamine in a strain lacking the two other genes for D1, psbA1 and psbA2. The resulting PSII (PsbA3/Glu130Gln) was compared with those from the "native" high-light (PsbA3-PSII) and low-light (PsbA1-PSII) variants, which differ by 21 amino acid including...
