Abstract

The nucleotide sequence was determined for the psaD gene of a thermophilic cyanobacterium, Synechococcus vulcanus, which encoded the PsaD subunit (Subunit II) of the Photosystem I reaction center complex. Except for some differences in the peripherals, the nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding PsaD was identical to that of another thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus reported previously. Relationship between these primary structures and thermostability was also discussed.
