Plant acclimation is a growing scientific concept, at molecular, cellular and global scales. All photosynthetic organisms that created an oxic atmosphere on earth possess a gene of unknown function "Acclimation of Photosynthesis to the Environment 1". Here we show that APE1 encodes a thylakoid-bound protein with a unique motif that binds copper and detoxifies the superoxide anion radical, O2*-. Maturation of the recombinant APE1 protein from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii requires formation of cysteine disulfide bonds after copper binding or via a high affinity interaction with a copper chaperone (Plastid Copper Chaperone 1) that boosts its scavenging capacity for O2*-. APE1 co-occurs in evolution with Photosystem II oxygen evolving proteins and it is the archaic O2*- detoxifying enzyme for acclimating photosynthesis to an oxygenic environment.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
