In molecular biology the PsbZ (Ycf9) is a protein domain which is low in molecular weight. It is a transmembrane protein and therefore is located in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts in cyanobacteria and plants. More specifically it is located in Photosystem II (PSII) and in the light-harvesting complex II (LHCII). Ycf9 acts as a structural linker that stabilises the PSII-LHCII supercomplexes.
