Species: Nicotiana plumbaginifolia (Leadwort-leaved tobacco)
Synonyms: CABC; Chlorophyll a-b binding protein C, chloroplastic; LHCII type I CAB-C; LHCP
All ABC transport proteins share a structural organization consisting of four core domains . These domains consist of two trans-membrane (T) domains and two cytosolic (A) domains . The two T domains alternate between an inward and outward facing orientation, and the alternation is powered by the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate or ATP . ATP binds to the A subunits and it is then hydrolyzed to power the alternation, but the exact process by which this happens is not known .
The amino acid sequence of Recombinant Full Length Nicotiana Plumbaginifolia Chlorophyll A-B Binding Protein C, Chloroplastic(Cabc) Protein is :
