The key cyclic electron flow protein PGR5 associates with cytochrome b₆f, and its function is partially influenced by the LHCII state transition.

ABSTRACT: In plants and algae, PGR5-dependent cyclic electron flow (CEF) is an important regulator of acclimation to fluctuating environments, but how PGR5 participates in CEF is unclear. In this work, we analyzed two PGR5s in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) under different conditions and found that CsPGR5a played the dominant role in PGR5-dependent CEF. The results of yeast two-hybrid, biomolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC), blue native PAGE, and coimmunoprecipitation (CoIP) assays showed that PGR5a interacted with PetC, Lhcb3, and PsaH. Furthermore, the intensity of the interactions was dynamic during state transitions, and the abundance of PGR5 attached to cyt b₆f decreased during the transition from state 1 to state 2, which revealed that the function of PGR5a is related to th
