The electron is given up by the cytochrome b<sub>6</sub>f and transforms plastocyanin in shape Cu<sup>2+</sup> into plastocyanin in shape Cu<sup>+</sup>. | The electron is given up by the cytochrome b<sub>6</sub>f and transforms plastocyanin in shape Cu<sup>2+</sup> into plastocyanin in shape Cu<sup>+</sup>. | ||
Then this plastocyanin diffuses through the lumen of thylakoid (remember its localisation in intern membrane of the thylakoid) until the recognition/binding occurs with the photosystem I. | Then this plastocyanin diffuses through the lumen of thylakoid (remember its localisation in intern membrane of the thylakoid) until the recognition/binding occurs with the photosystem I. | ||
