FUNCTIONOne of the extrinsic, lumenal subunits of photosystem II (PSII). PSII is a light-driven water plastoquinone oxidoreductase, using light energy to abstract electrons from H(2)O, generating a proton gradient subsequently used for ATP formation. The extrinsic proteins stabilize the structure of photosystem II oxygen-evolving complex (OEC), the ion environment of oxygen evolution and protect the OEC against heat-induced inactivation.
SUBUNITPSII is composed of 1 copy each of membrane proteins PsbA, PsbB, PsbC, PsbD, PsbE, PsbF, PsbH, PsbI, PsbJ, PsbK, PsbL, PsbM, PsbT, PsbX, PsbY, PsbZ, Psb30/Ycf12, peripheral proteins PsbO, CyanoQ (PsbQ), PsbU, PsbV and a large number of cofactors. It forms dimeric complexes.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCellular thylakoid membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Lumenal side.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the PsbU family.

Comments GLOVI is very divergent, and hence atypical. For a review on the composition of the oxygen-evolving complex see: PubMed=17200881; DOI=10.1007/s11120-006-9117-1; Roose J.L., Wegener K.M., Pakrasi H.B.; "The extrinsic proteins of Photosystem II."; Photosyn. Res. 92:369-387(2007). PsbU is found in some non-Viridiplantae algae, but the protein is not detected by this rule.
