When isolated photosystem II reaction centers from spinach are exposed to photoinhibitory light in the presence of an electron acceptor, breakdown products of the D2 protein at 28, 25, 23, 18, 9, 5 and 4.5 kDa are detected by immunoblotting with a monospecific anti-D2 polyclonal antibody. In a time-course experiment the 23 and 4.5 kDa fragments show a transient appearance, whilst the others are photoaccumulated. The regions of the D2 protein containing the cleavage sites for the 28 and 18 kDa photoinduced fragments have been identified. Significant degradation of D2 takes place only in the presence of an electron acceptor, and breakdown of the protein is partially prevented by serine-type protease inhibitors.

D010944 Plants Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of kingdom Plantae. Plants acquired chloroplasts by direct endosymbiosis of CYANOBACTERIA. They are characterized by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localized regions of cell divisions (MERISTEMS); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absence of nervous and sensory systems; and an alternation of haploid and diploid generations. It is a non-taxonomical term most often referring to LAND PLANTS. In broad sense it includes RHODOPHYTA and GLAUCOPHYTA along with VIRIDIPLANTAE. Plant
D000595 Amino Acid Sequence The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins.
