Anti-Lhc1 | from PSI of red alga

• Background:

  The light-harvesting system is composed of pigment-binding proteins belonging to the Lhc multigenic family. Lhc polypeptides are able to bind chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and xanthophyll molecules in a suitable structural and dynamic mutual arrangement, ensuring high efficiency of energy transfer processes involved in light-harvesting and photoprotection.

• Storage Conditions:

  Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
