UniProt Comments
Function: Component of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI), cyclic electron flow around PSI, and state transitions
By similarity.
Catalytic activity: Plastoquinol + 2 oxidized plastocyanin + 2 H+(Side 1) = plastoquinone + 2 reduced plastocyanin + 2 H+(Side 2).
Cofactor: Binds 1 2Fe-2S cluster per subunit
By similarity.
Subunit structure: The 4 large subunits of the cytochrome b6-f complex are cytochrome b6, subunit IV (17 kDa polypeptide, petD), cytochrome f and the Rieske protein, while the 4 small subunits are petG, petL, petM and petN. The complex functions as a dimer
By similarity.
Subcellular location: Plastid › chloroplast thylakoid membrane; Single-pass membrane protein
By similarity. Note: The transmembrane helix obliquely spans the membrane in one monomer, and its extrinsic C-terminal domain is part of the other monomer
By similarity.
Miscellaneous: This protein is 1 of 2 subunits of the cytochrome b6-f complex that are encoded in the nucleus.The Rieske iron-sulfur protein is a high potential 2Fe-2S protein.
Sequence similarities: Contains 1 Rieske domain.
