Structural mechanism and photoprotective function of water-soluble chlorophyll-binding protein.
A water-soluble chlorophyll-binding protein (WSCP) is the single known instance of a putative chlorophyll (Chl) carrier in green plants. Recently the photoprotective function of WSCP has been demonstrated by EPR measurements; the light-induced singlet-oxygen formation of Chl in the WSCP tetramer is about four times lower than that of unbound Chl. This paper describes the crystal structure of th...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Functional Expression of A Class IIA Water-Soluble Chlorophyll-Binding Protein From Brassica nigra
Non-photoconvertible water-soluble chlorophyll-binding proteins, called Class II WSCPs, have been identified in some Brassicaceae plants. Although the WSCP in black mustard (Brassica nigra) was the second Class II WSCP to be reported by Murata and Murata, the cDNA has not been cloned until now. In this study, we cloned a cDNA encoding the black mustard WSCP (BmWSCP) and analyzed its chlorophyll...
متن کاملSynthesis and DNA-binding properties of water-soluble cationic pyropheophorbides derived from chlorophyll a/b.
A series of mono-, di-, tetra- and hexacationic esters of pyropheophorbide a/b have been designed and synthesized to explore the intercalation of their phorbine ring between the base pairs of double-helical DNA and the influence of their peripheral substituents on the DNA interactions. Mono-(1), di-(2, 3) and tetra-(4, 5) cationic pyropheophorbides are soluble as an oligomeric aggregate in HEPE...
متن کاملWater-soluble chlorophyll protein is involved in herbivore resistance activation during greening of Arabidopsis thaliana.
Water-soluble chlorophyll proteins (WSCPs) constitute a small family of unusual chlorophyll (Chl)-binding proteins that possess a Kunitz-type protease inhibitor domain. In Arabidopsis thaliana, a WSCP has been identified, named AtWSCP, that forms complexes with Chl and the Chl precursor chlorophyllide (Chlide) in vitro. AtWSCP exhibits a quite unexpected expression pattern for a Chl binding pro...
متن کاملA water-soluble chlorophyll protein in cauliflower may be identical to BnD22, a drought-induced, 22-kilodalton protein in rapeseed.
A water-soluble chlorophyll protein (WSCP) in cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.) was purified and its N-terminal sequence was determined. Forty-six of 48 residues of the sequence completely matched those of the drought-induced 22-kD protein (BnD22) in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). All 40 sequenced residues of WSCP from rapeseed were perfectly matched to those of BnD22. Thus, WSCP may be identic...
