- Characteristics
- Expected / apparent Molecular Weight of the Antigene: 23 / 24 kDa for Arabidopsis thaliana
- Purification
- affinity purified
- Immunogen
- BSA-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from the Lhca2 protein of Arabidopsis thaliana UniProt: Q9SYW8, Q8LCQ4, TAIR: At3g61470. This sequence is highly conserved in Lhca2 proteins of angiosperms (monocots and dicots) and gymnosperms as well as in At3g19150. This gene codes for the very low expressed Lhca6 protein which also has been denoted as Lhca2*1.

- 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.

AGI Code: At3g61470
The light-harvesting protein Lhca2 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. Lhca2 is imported as a precursor from the cytosol into the chloroplast. Upon integration in the thylakoid membrane Lhca2 forms a heterodimer (LHCI-680) with Lhca3 that associates with the PSI core close to PsaF and PsaK.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. - Molecular Weight
