The cytochrome b6 polypeptide present in cytochrome b6 /| preparations from spinach thylakoids is phosphorylated concomitantly with the autophosphorylation of the 64 kDa polypeptide identified as the redox‐controlled LHCII kinase. The N‐terminal sequence of the 64 kDa kinase and sequence analysis of cytochrome b6 indicate the existence of putative phosphorylation sites in both proteins.
