CP29, the core chlorophyll a/b (CAB) antenna complex of Photosystem II (PSII), has two nuclear-encoded polypeptides of approximately 26 and 28 kDa in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). Cab9, the gene for the Type I (26 kDa) CP29 polypeptide was cloned by immunoscreening a tomato leaf cDNA library. Its identity was confirmed by sequencing tryptic peptides from the mature protein. Cab9 is a single-copy gene with five introns, the highest number found in a CAB protein. In vitro transcription-translation gave a 31 kDa precursor which was cleaved to about 26 kDa after import into isolated tomato chloroplasts. The Cab9 polypeptide has the two highly conserved regions common to all CAB polypeptides, which define the members of this extended gene family. Outside of the conserved regions, it is only slightly more closely related to other PSII CABs than to PSI CABs. Sequence analysis of tryptic peptides from the Type II (28 kDa) CP29 polypeptide showed that it is also a member of the CAB family and is very similar or identical to the CP29 polypeptide previously isolated from spinach. All members of the CAB family have absolutely conserved His, Gln and Asn residues which could ligate the Mg atoms of the chlorophylls, and a number of conserved Asp. Glu, Lys and Arg residues which could form H-bonds to the polar groups on the porphyrin rings. The two conserved regions comprise the first and third predicted trans-membrane helices and the stroma-exposed segments preceding them.
