Photosystem II Protein VI (psbF) antibody

Antigen: Photosystem II Protein VI (psbF)

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Arabidopsis thaliana, Pea (Pisum sativum)

Application: Western Blotting (WB)

Catalog no.: ABIN334540

Additional Information

Alternative name: Beta subunit of Cytochrome b559 of PSII (PsbF)

Swiss-Prot: P62095

Immunogen: KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from plant PsbF sequences includingArabidopsis thaliana P62095

Format: Lyophilized

Description: Cytochrome b559 (Cyt b559) is encoded by the chloroplast genes psbE andpsbF and is comprised of two low molecular mass polypeptides, α and ß subunits,with molecular masses of 9 and 4 kDa, respectively. The Cyt b559 is closelyassociated with PSII in all oxygenic photosynthetic organisms. The α and ßsubunits of the Cyt b559 are components of the minimal PSII reaction centercomplex that is still capable of primary charge separation In summary, both PsbEand PsbF are essential components for PSII assembly, and they are probablyinvolved in electron transport mechanisms that help to protect PSII fromphotodamage.

Specificity: Predicted reactivity: Nicotiana tabacum, Pinus sylvestris, Populus tremula.

Application Details

Application Notes: Recommended Dilution 1: 1000 (WB).

Purity: Serum

Storage: store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C, once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please, remember to spin tubes briefly prior toopening them to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized materialadhering to the cap or sides of the tubes.
