Abstrakt: As an essential intrinsic component of photosystem II (PSII) in all oxygenic photosynthetic organisms, heme-bridged heterodimer cytochrome b559 (Cyt b559) plays critical roles in the protection and assembly of PSII. However, the underlying mechanisms of Cyt b559 assembly are largely unclear. Here, we characterized the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) rph1 (resistance to Phytophthora1) mutant, which was previously shown to be susceptible to the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora brassicae. Loss of RPH1 leads to a drastic reduction in PSII accumulation, which can be primarily attributed to the defective formation of Cyt b559. Spectroscopic analyses showed that the heme level in PSII supercomplexes isolated from rph1 is significantly reduced, suggesting that RPH1 facilitates proper heme assembly in Cyt b559. Due to the loss of RPH1-mediated processes, a covalently bound PsbE-PsbF heterodimer is formed during the biogenesis of PSII. In addition, rph1 is highly photosensitive and accumulates elevated levels of reactive oxygen species under photoinhibitory-light conditions. RPH1 is a conserved intrinsic thylakoid protein present in green algae and terrestrial plants, but absent in Synechocystis, and it directly interacts with the subunits of Cyt b559. Thus, our data demonstrate that RPH1 represents a chloroplast acquisition specifically promoting the efficient assembly of Cyt b559, probably by mediating proper heme insertion into the apo-Cyt b559 during the initial phase of PSII biogenesis.
