Research Abstract

The chloroplastic NAD(P)H dehydrogenase complex (NDH) is a newly found protein complex on the thylakoid membranes and functions in cyclic electron transport around photosystem I. In this study, I tried to find new subunits of NDH using expressional databases, and characterized a new subunit with Fe-S center motif.
