IPR002387

Description

IPR002387 is a Plastocyanin.

<p>Blue or 'type-1' copper proteins are small proteins which bind a single copper atom and which are characterised by an intense electronic absorption band near 600 nm [[cite:PUB00003327], [cite:PUB00003425]]. The most well known members of this class of proteins are the plant chloroplastic plastocyanins, and the distantly related bacterial azurins, which exchange electrons with cytochrome c551. Plastocyanin participates in electron transfer between the cytochrome b6f complex and photosystem I. Many cyanobacteria and eukaryotic algae can synthesise both plastocyanin and its functional analog cytochrome c6, depending on bioavailabilities of copper and iron, respectively [[cite:PUB00014468]].</p> <p>Plastocyanin participates in electron transfer between P700 and the cytochrome b/f complex in photosystem I [[cite:PUB00081028]].</p>

GO predictions are based solely on the InterPro-to-GO mappings published by EMBL-EBI, which are in turn based on the mapping of predicted domains to the InterPro dataset. The InterPro-to-GO mapping was last updated on , while the GO metadata was last updated on .

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function Copper ion binding Interacting selectively and non-covalently with copper (Cu) ions.
Molecular function Electron transfer activity Any molecular entity that serves as an electron acceptor and electron donor in an electron transport chain. An electron transport chain is a process in which a series of electron carriers operate together to transfer electrons from donors to any of several different terminal electron acceptors to generate a transmembrane electrochemical gradient.
