The Sll0606 Protein Is Required for Photosystem II Assembly/Stability in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Abstract: An insertional transposon mutation in the sll0606 gene was found to lead to a loss of photoautotrophy but not photoheterotrophy in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Complementation analysis of this mutant (Tsll0606) indicated that an intact sll0606 gene could fully restore photoautotrophic growth. Gene organization in the vicinity of sll0606 indicates that it is not contained in an operon. No electron transport activity was detected in Tsll0606 using water as an electron donor and 2,6-dichlorobenz… Show more

“…These low F v / F m ratios were not caused by photoinhibition or light stress because Chlamydomonas cells grown under extremely low‐light conditions also exhibited a similar F v / F m ratio to those grown under normal light conditions. One possible mechanism for the low F v / F m ratio is a defect in the assembly of PSII (Sirpio et al ., ; Zhang et al ., ). In support of this mechanism, the levels of PSII and its components, including D1, D2, CP43 and CP47, were extremely low in the Chlamydomonas sgr mutants (Figure ).…”

“…At this stage, the Psb27-PSII complex consists of most of the intrinsic membrane subunits of the PSII monomer. Sll0606 is involved in RC47 binding to CP43, and its deletion leads to a loss of photoautotrophy [ 88 ]. Psb34 (Ssl1498), an HLIP-family protein with no pigment binding site, is also suggested to be involved in RC47 binding to CP43 [ 61 , 62 , 81 ], as it is found in both RC47 and Psb27-PSII.…”
