Abstract

The amino acid sequence of the main hydrophobic polypeptides of the integral membrane complexes of PS II and the cytochrome b6/f-complex are known, primarily from DNA sequencing as most are coded for in the plastome. from a hydropathy index analysis a three-dimensional folding can be predicted. The prediction has in part been verified by direct topological studies. The topology indicates the orientation of the redox components in the membrane and is giving new insights into functions in electron flow.
