Three of them were full sequences while others were partial sequences with 3'-UTRs. The cleavage sites between signal peptide and mature LHC protein were analyzed on these three full sequences. The sequence characteristics, calculated molecular weights and isoelectric point (pI) values and hydrophobicity of the mature proteins were deduced and analyzed. Comparing the LHC sequences of G. japonica with higher plant, Chlorophyta, chromophytes and other red algae, the high conservation of the chlorophyll (Chl) binding site among chromophytes and red algae were revealed. Phylogenetic analysis on LHC proteins from higher plant, green algae, euglena, brown algae, diatom, cryptomonad, Raphidophyte and red algae reveals that (1) there are two distinct groups of Chl a/b and Chl a/c -binding LHC; (2) Chl a binding proteins of red algae share greater similarities with the Chl a/c-binding proteins of the chromophytes and dinoflagellate than with the Chl a/b - binding proteins of the green algae and higher plants; (3) chromophyte's LHC is supposed to be evolved from red algae LHC.展开更多

A partly purified nitrogenase component Ⅰ protein separated from UW 3 grown in the Mn-containing medium was shown to contain Fe and Mn atoms (ratio of Fe/Mo/Mn: 10.41/0.19/1.00) with C 2H 2- and H +-reducing activity which almost equal to half of that of MoFe protein purified from wild-type mutant of Azotobacter vinelandii Lipmann. This protein was obviously different from MoFe protein in both absorption spectrum and circular dichroism, and the molecular weight of subunits in Mn-containing protein was close to that of α subunit in MoFe protein. The preliminary results indicated that the protein containing Mn might be a nitrogenase component Ⅰ protein.展开更多
