Buoyant density centrifugation

Buoyant density centrifugation (also isopycnic centrifugation or equilibrium density-gradient centrifugation) uses the concept of buoyancy to separate molecules in solution by their differences in density.

See Ycf4 protein domain and Buoyant density centrifugation

Chloroplast

A chloroplast is a type of membrane-bound organelle known as a plastid that conducts photosynthesis mostly in plant and algal cells. Ycf4 protein domain and chloroplast are photosynthesis.

Light-dependent reactions

Light-dependent reactions are certain photochemical reactions involved in photosynthesis, the main process by which plants acquire energy. Ycf4 protein domain and Light-dependent reactions are photosynthesis.

Open reading frame

In molecular biology, reading frames are defined as spans of DNA sequence between the start and stop codons.

See Ycf4 protein domain and Open reading frame

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a system of biological processes by which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, convert light energy, typically from sunlight, into the chemical energy necessary to fuel their metabolism.

See Ycf4 protein domain and Photosynthesis

Photosystem I

Photosystem I (PSI, or plastocyanin–ferredoxin oxidoreductase) is one of two photosystems in the photosynthetic light reactions of algae, plants, and cyanobacteria. Ycf4 protein domain and photosystem I are photosynthesis.

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

Sucrose

Sucrose, a disaccharide, is a sugar composed of glucose and fructose subunits.

See Ycf4 protein domain and Sucrose

Thylakoid

Thylakoids are membrane-bound compartments inside chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. Ycf4 protein domain and Thylakoid are photosynthesis.

Transmembrane domain

A transmembrane domain (TMD) is a membrane-spanning protein domain.
