Mutated genes   
Mutated Gene 1 Locus name AT1G68830.1
Alias STN7
Organism Arabidopsis thaliana
Description STN7 protein kinase; required for state transitions, phosphorylation of the major antenna complex (LHCII) between PSII and PSI, and light adaptati
Mutated Gene 2 Locus name AT5G01920.1
Alias STN8
Organism Arabidopsis thaliana
Description Chloroplast thylakoid protein kinase STN8 is specific in phosphorylation of N-terminal threonine residues in D1, D2 and CP43 proteins, and Thr-4 in PsbH protein of photosystem II. Phosphorylation of Thr-4 in the wild type required both light and prior phosphorylation at Thr-2.
