title: Sequence of Lhcb3*1, a gene encoding a Photosystem II chlorophyll a/b-binding protein in Pisum.
abstract: We have cloned and sequenced a pea Lhcb3 gene, encoding a Photosystem II chlorophyll a/b-binding protein. Sequence analysis indicates that the gene contains two introns and predicts a polypeptide of 265 amino acids. The predicted polypeptide sequence is highly homologous to the polypeptide sequences deduced from Lhcb3 genes previously characterized in tomato and barley.
