Abstract excerpt
The cytochrome b6f (cyt b6f) acts as a common linker of electron transport between photosystems I and II in oxygenic photosynthesis. PetM, one of eight subunits of the cyt b6f complex, is a small hydrophobic subunit at the outside periphery, the functional mechanism of which remains to be elucidated in higher plants. In this work, we found that unlike the PetM mutant in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, the Arabidopsis...
