| Description | This entry represents a family of proteins predominantly found in the thylakoid membrane of plant chloroplasts and cyanobacteria, including Photosystem II assembly lipoprotein Ycf48 from Synechocystis sp. [ , ] and Photosystem II stability/assembly factor HCF136, chloroplastic from Arabidopsis thaliana [].The photosynthesis system II (PSII) is a multi-subunit pigment-protein complex responsible for water oxidation during oxygenic photosynthesis [ ]. Its assembly is regulated by PSII assembly factors including Ycf48/Hcf136, Psb27 and Psb28. Ycf48/Hcf136 contains the BNR repeats and can be found predominantly in the thylakoid membrane. Ycf48/Hcf136 is required for assembly and repair of an early intermediate in PSII assembly that includes D2 (psbD) and cytochrome b559 [, ]. This entry also includes some Ycf48-like proteins that may not affect PSII activity. |
