Background:

The D1 protein of Photosystem II (PSII), encoded by the PsbA genes, is an indispensable component of oxygenic photosynthesis. Due to strongly oxidative chemistry of PSII water splitting, the D1 protein is prone to constant photodamage requiring its replacement, whereas most of the other PSII subunits remain ordinarily undamaged.

  Synonyms:

PsbA, 32 kDa thylakoid membrane protein, photosystem II protein D1

  Immunogen:

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from N-terminal of D1 subunit in Arabidopsis thaliana ATCG00020.

  Form:

Lyophilized

  Quantity:

150 µg

  Purification:

Protein A purified

  Reconstitution:  

Reconstitution with 150µl of 0.01M sterile PBS.
"Note: please spin tube briefly prior to opening it to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube".

  Stability &
