Abstract excerpt
The product of pxcA (formerly known as cotA) is involved in light-induced Na+-dependent proton extrusion. In the presence of 2, 5-dimethyl-p-benzoquinone, net proton extrusion by Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803 ceased after 1 min of illumination and a postillumination influx of protons was obser...
