PsaL (PSI-L) is a conserved subunit of type I photosynthetic reaction centers (Photosystem I, PSI). PSI is an integral membrane multi-protein complex that catalyzes the electron transfer from plastocyanin (or cytochrome c6) to ferredoxin (or flavodoxin). Psa-L is binding pigments and has been shown to be involved in trimerization of PSI in cyanobacteria (but not in plants) and bind pigments in plants and cyanobacteria.In plants and algae Psa-L is nuclear encoded and imported post-translationally into the chloroplast where it inserts into the thylakoid membrane.

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide derived from PsaL protein sequence from Arabidopsis thaliana (At4g12800). This sequence is well conserved in most mono- and dicots but not in Physcomitrella patens.
