We describe here the complete amino acid sequence of photosystem I subunit IV from Synechocystis 6803. The molecular mass of 8.0 kDa is lower than in higher plants and Chlamydomonas, due to the lack of a characteristic, proline-rich, N-terminal sequence. The remaining sequence exhibits a good conservation, with a hydrophilic and strongly basic N-terminal head followed by two hydrophobic domains. There is no possibility of classical membrane-spanning alpha helices. This component is likely to be one of the most stroma accessible subunits of photosystem I.

D000458	Cyanobacteria	A phylum of oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria comprised of unicellular to multicellular bacteria possessing CHLOROPHYLL a and carrying out oxygenic PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Cyanobacteria are the only known organisms capable of fixing both CARBON DIOXIDE (in the presence of light) and NITROGEN. Cell morphology can include nitrogen-fixing heterocysts and/or resting cells called akinetes. Formerly called blue-green algae, cyanobacteria were traditionally treated as ALGAE.
