  2. 1. Studies on spinach plastocyanin and mutants : Expression in Escherichia coli, folding and function

    Author : Mikael Ejdebäck; Örjan Hansson; Miguel A. De la Rosa; Göteborgs Universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; plastocyanin; electron transfer; copper; protein-protein interactions; protein expression; folding; site-directed mutagenesis; NMR; Naturvetenskap; Natural sciences;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis is a process in which photons from sunlight excite chlorophylls in the thylakoid membranes of plants, algae and cyanobacteria. The photo-oxidised reaction centre chlorophyll P700 is re-reduced by an electron transferred from the soluble, blue copper protein plastocyanin. READ MORE

  5. 3. Structural and biochemical analysis of two copper proteins - plastocyanin from spinach and nitrite reductase from Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.3

    Author : Frida Jacobson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plastocyanin; X-ray crystallography; nitrite reductase; copper geometry; redox; copper protein; photosynthesis; reduction potential; denitrification; electron transfer;

    Abstract : Plastocyanin from spinach and nitrite reductase from Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.3 are two copper-containing proteins that are involved in biological electron transport chains: plastocyanin operates in photosynthesis and nitrite reductase takes part in the denitrification pathway.

  6. 4. Proteomic analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Irene Granlund; Wolfgang Schröder; Birte Svensson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Proteomic; speclust; post-translational modification; DIGE; plastocyanin; TL29; APX; thylakoid lumen; chloroplast stroma; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : A complete proteome analysis of the chloroplast stroma, using 2D-PAGE, from spinach and Arabidopsis was performed. To improve the identification of proteins a computer program named SPECLUST was used. READ MORE

  7. 5. Regulation of electron donation to photosystem 1

    Author : Daniel Farkas; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; EPR; NMR; photosystem 1; plastocyanin; protein-protein interaction; PsaF;

    Abstract : Photosynthesis is the process where energy from light is used to catalyze the formation of energy-rich molecules such as NADPH and ATP. These reactions are in fact the result of a long series of electron-transfer reactions where water molecules are the source of electrons and NADP+ is the terminal electron acceptor. READ MORE
