Description
AI-generatedUnreviewed
The Ycf4/Cytochrome f family includes proteins involved in the assembly and function of photosystems in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. Members of the Ycf4 subfamily are essential for the assembly of the photosystem I complex, a crucial component of the photosynthetic electron transport chain that converts light energy into chemical energy. The Cytochrome f subfamily proteins are components of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II and photosystem I, supports cyclic electron flow around photosystem I, and contributes to state transitions in the photosynthetic apparatus.
