product information

Lhca5 is a low abundant chlorophyll a/b-binding protein that has been found to associate with Photoystem I in sub-stoechiometric amounts. Unlike the four main Lhca-types (Lhca1-4) Lhca5 seems to be able to associate with PSI or the LHCI at varying positions. The regulation pattern for the expressino of the Lhca5 gene differs from the standard Lhc pattern as expression seems to be positively regulated under light and cold stress conditions.

BSA-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from the Lhca4 protein of Arabidopsis thaliana (At1g45474). This sequence is highly conserved in Lhca5 proteins of angiosperms (monocots and dicots) and gymnosperms.

store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 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.
