Characterization of putative polyphosphoinositide binding motifs from phospholipase C beta 2.

abstract：:The extrinsic 33-kDa protein (P33) was cross-linked covalently to the binding site on P33-depleted PSII preparations which is responsible for reconstitution of photosynthetic water oxidation after PSII preparations have been washed with 1 M CaCl2. Conditions were found in which more than half of the cross-linked prote...
