Polymorphism of a photosystem I subunit caused by alloploidy in Nicotiana.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The photosystem I complex from Nicotiana tabacum, which has an alloploid genome, contains subunits of 17.5 and 18.5 kilodaltons whose N-terminal amino acid sequences are highly homologous. Comparative analysis of photosystem I subunits among N. tabacum and its ancestral plants, N. tomentosiformis and N. sylvestris, revealed that the 17.5 kilodalton subunit of N. tabacum derives from N. sylvestris, and the 18.5 kilodalton subunit from N. tomentosiformis.

The plastome-encoded PsaJ subunit is required for efficient Photosystem I excitation, but not for plastocyanin oxidation in tobacco.
The functions of several small subunits of the large photosynthetic multiprotein complex PSI (Photosystem I) are not yet understood. To elucidate the function of the small plastome-encoded PsaJ subunit, we have produced knockout mutants by chloroplast transformation in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum). PsaJ binds two chlorophyll-a molecules and is localized at the periphery of PSI, close to both the...

In this study 12 specimens were collected from Bandar Jask, Qeshm Island and Bandare Lengeh in Hormozgan Province. DNA extraction was performed using Phenol-Chloroform method. A partial DNA sequence of Cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene (COI) was used to evaluate genetic diversity. The sequence of Cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene was done using specific primers designed based on sequences regis...
متن کاملPsbN is required for assembly of the photosystem II reaction center in Nicotiana tabacum.
The chloroplast-encoded low molecular weight protein PsbN is annotated as a photosystem II (PSII) subunit. To elucidate the localization and function of PsbN, encoded on the opposite strand to the psbB gene cluster, we raised antibodies and inserted a resistance cassette into PsbN in both directions. Both homoplastomic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) mutants psbN-F and psbN-R show essentially the s...
متن کاملThe plastid-encoded PsaI subunit stabilizes photosystem I during leaf senescence in tobacco
PsaI is the only subunit of PSI whose precise physiological function has not yet been elucidated in higher plants. While PsaI is involved in PSI trimerization in cyanobacteria, trimerization was lost during the evolution of the eukaryotic PSI, and the entire PsaI side of PSI underwent major structural remodelling to allow for binding of light harvesting complex II antenna proteins during state ...

Bovine theileriosis is a tick-borne disease caused by obligate intracellular parasites related to the genus Theileria. Cellular immune responses protect cattle against pathogens through the activation of immune cells. Nowadays, live, attenuated vaccine of Theileria annulata (T. annulata) is being produced in Iran and is recommended for active cattle immunization. Detection of the immunogenic a...
