title = "Nucleotide sequences of the psaA and the psaB genes encoding the reaction center proteins of Photosystem I in Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413",
abstract = "We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the psaAB gene cluster from the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413. These genes encode the Photosystem I reaction center proteins, which are highly homologous to similar proteins in other cyanobacteria and higher plants.",

note = "Funding Information: Small regions of PsaA and PsaB differ significantly among organisms. First, the Anabaena 29413 PsaA protein contains two histidine residues (745 and 747) in a potential membrane-spanning helix not found in other PsaA proteins. Second, all sequences from thermophilic cyanobacteria, represented here by Synechococcus sp., contain a variable region including an insertion of four amino acids around residues 256-259 of the Anabaena 29413 PsaA protein (Fig. 2). Third, Anabaena 29413 shares two domains of PsaB with thermophilic cyanobacteria that are absent from other mesophilic cyanobacteria and higher plants (residues 308-324 and 493-498; Fig. 2). This work was supported by a grant (GM41841) from the National Institutes of Health to H.B.P.K.S. was partially supported by a short term fellowship from the Human Frontier Science Program.",
