PsaG (PSI-G subunit of photosystem I) is a 11-kDa membrane protein that plays an important role in electron transport between plastocyanin and PSI and is involved in the stability of the PSI complex. PSI-G subunit is bound to PSI-B and is in contact with Lhca1. The protein inserts into thylakoids by a direct or "spontaneous" pathway that does not involve the activities of any known chloroplast protein-targeting machinery. PSI-G appears to be directly or indirectly involved in the interaction between Photosystem I and plastocyanin.
