    Purification

    affinity purified

    Immunogen

    BSA-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from the Lhca1 protein of Arabidopsis thaliana UniProt: Q01667, TAIR: At3g54890. This sequence is highly conserved in Lhca1 proteins of angiosperms (monocots and dicots) and gymnosperms.

    Isotype

    IgG
  • Application Notes

    Recommended Dilution: 1 : 2000 - 1 : 5000, detected with standard ECL (WB).

    Comment

    A number of degradation products may be observed when using anti-PsbA antibodies, including products having apparent molecular weights of 24kDa and16kDa. D1 degradation is a complex set of events and the products observed canbe influenced by both the extraction procedure and the physiology of the cells prior to harvest. Third, cross-linking may occur between D1 and cytochrome b559,shifting the protein higher in the gel. In cyanobacteria (PCC7942), three different bands were competed out by preincubating the antibody with the PsbA freepeptide, indicating that all bands are indeed PsbA and its precursors or breakdown product.

    Restrictions

    For Research Use only
  • Format

    Lyophilized

    Reconstitution

    For reconstitution add 200 µL of sterile water

    Buffer

    PBS pH 7.4

    Handling Advice

    Please, remember to spin tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized material adhering to the cap or sides of the tubes.
    Once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repreated freeze-thaw cycles.

    Background

    AGI Code: At3g54890
    The light-harvesting protein Lhca1 is one of the four main and highly conserved types of chlorophyll a/b-binding proteins (Lhca1-4) of the light harvesting antenna (LHCI) of plant photosystem I. Lhca1 is imported as a precursor from the cytosol into the chloroplast. Upon insertion into the thylakoid membrane Lhca1 forms a heterodimer (LHCI-730) with Lhca4 that associates with the PSI core close to PsaG and PsaF.A biochemical characterization of the plant LHCI antenna can be found in Klimmek et al. (2005) The structure of the higher plant light harvesting complex I: in vivo characterization and structural interdependence of the Lhca proteins. Biochemistry 44: 3065-3073
