| background |
|
The light-harvesting protein Lhca4 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. Lhca4 is imported as a precursor from the cytosol into the chloroplast. Upon insertion into the thylakoid membrane Lhca4 forms a heterodimer (LHCI-730) with Lhca1 that associates with the PSI core close to PsaG and PsaF. |
| immunogen |
|
BSA-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from the Lhca4 protein of Arabidopsis thaliana (At3g47470). This sequence is highly conserved in Lhca4 proteins of angiosperms (monocots and dicots) and gymnosperms. |
