Implication

Analysis reveals distinct chlorophyll types in cytochrome b6f complex purification, indicating implications for photosynthetic protein analysis.

Abstract

Purification of photosynthetic protein complexes in detergent often results in residual contaminant chlorophyll (Chl) that is dependent on preparation. In the case of the cytochrome (Cyt) b 6 f complex, which contains...
