Abstract

Nucleotide sequencing of a region of wheat chloroplast DNA between the genes for the 47 kDa chlorophyll a-binding protein of photosystem II ( psbB) and cytochrome b-563 ( petB) has revealed an open reading frame of 73 codons. This open reading frame has been identified as the gene ( psbH) for the 10 kDa phosphoprotein of photosystem II by comparison with the published N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid composition of the purified spinach protein. The predicted sequence of the protein shows some homology with the N-terminal region of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/ b-binding protein of photosystem II (LHCII).
