FunctionMay be involved in non-photochemical quenching, a process maintains the balance between dissipation and utilization of light energy to minimize generation of oxidizing molecules, thereby protecting the plant against photo-oxidative damage. {ECO:0000250}.
InductionPresent at low levels under low light conditions, but accumulates under high-intensity light. Induced by UV-A illumination. Fades out upon wounding. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10725357}.
SimilarityBelongs to the ELIP/psbS family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPlastid, chloroplast thylakoid membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10725357}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10725357}.
