Augmented affinity of FtsH with D1 by W14F/W317F.

(A) Coimmunoprecipitation was performed with anti-FtsH antibody using the thylakoid membrane isolated from control or D1-W14F/W317F. The polypeptides of thylakoid membrane or coimmunoprecipitated samples were separated by SDS-PAGE and detected by immunoblotting with anti-D1, anti-D2, and anti-FtsH antibody. (B) The immunoblotting signals are quantified and the ratio of D1 or D2 to FtsH are calculated. The averaged value and standard error for three biological replicates are shown. Significant difference was calculated by t-test and 0.1 (§) or 0.05 (*) probability confidence were indicated respectively.
